Careful for spoilers..... not really
There is nothing to spoil that has not already been spoiled by its promotion. Whiplash i didnt care for. The most memorable moments are those that J.K. simmons did all over the Tv world. But man What an A-Hole. Not J.K. simmon he is a pompous dickhead but the kid. He left his girl to work hard for a man that will never show him respect . Im sorry but if that is what real music is like, im glad i didnt pursue it.
Final verdict 4.5/10 i could watch this but i didnt care. I have no desire to see it again.
* Id like to note that there is another good scene, but it ends up being backhanded... i am referring to the scene where J.K. and the boy discuss J.K. firing. He claims that he did all that he did to make the boy great. But those actions are not what drives a person, it is what destroys them, everyone is motivated differently. Some need to be called on their faults, others need to have their faults acknowledged only by themselves. Since the movie doesn't address this, music directors will think that this is a way to motivate, through fear. Which is not the case. It ends up working for this boy, but not without unnecessary struggle and pain.
