Simmons) who will stop at nothing to achieve perfection. Review: A great cast.. And a damn good inspirational message.. of hard work.. - I dont think I have ever rated a movie 5 stars or damn near perfect.. Except for maybe, except for maybe Shawshank and maybe 2 others.. But this one is probably one of my favorite movies.. The ending is probably the best endings of a movie ever.. It leaves you wanting more.. but still is a excellent ending.. The cast is great. And glad J.K. Simmons finally gets his deserved recognition. I am not a music guy. I have no ear for music. Can barely tell the difference between instruments let alone if something is off tune, unless it is miles off.. But ironically that doesnt matter.. Give this one a chance if you never have.. And if you have and didnt like it, or what not, fair enough.. I liked it but didnt love it the first time I watched it.. Review: An intense movie about obsession - Wow. Whiplash is one of the most intense and heart-pounding movies I have seen in a long time. Which is surprising because this isn't an action movie, a thriller, or horror. Whiplash is a movie about drumming. And yet, my heart was still racing ten minutes after it ended. It tells the story of Andrew Neiman, a young jazz drummer who dreams of being one of the greats. At the beginning of the film he is starting his first year at the best music school in the country, where he becomes a student of Terrence Fletcher. Fletcher is a ruthless and cruel teacher hell-bent on perfection. Make the slightest mistake and he will verbally abuse you in ways you wouldn't imagine. He is the kind of man who believes that being kind or telling you that you did a good job will make you too comfortable, and to really make someone reach greatness they need to be pushed to their absolute limits. Most reasonable people would realize that he is going too far and find a different teacher, but Andrew wants to be a perfect drummer, he wants to be a legend. Because of this he continues to let Fletcher abuse him so that he can reach that greatness. The result is an intense movie about obsession. It's the kind of film that makes you unsure of how to feel. On the one hand, Andrew's dream is to be a legendary drummer, so we should admire his willingness to go so far to achieve that dream. On the other hand, he breaks up with his girlfriend, acts like a jerk to friends and family, and pushes himself so far physically and mentally that I started to question his sanity. My younger brother loved Whiplash, but when I told him how unsure I was about Andrew's choices, he was surprised. He saw this as a simple story of someone achieving their dreams through any means necessary. It just goes to show how many different ways there are to interpret the story. The film is very well paced and there isn't a single unnecessary scene or moment, and at an hour and forty minutes it doesn't overstay it's welcome either. It all leads to an incredible ending. I won't spoil it, but Whiplash has not only the best ending of 2014, but one of the best movie endings I have seen in years. It could have easily been messed up too. Had there been one more scene showing what happened to the characters later, it would ruined the entire movie. Whiplash has a very strong and clear ending that doesn't tell the viewer how they should feel, something I really appreciated. To compliment the great story are the incredible performances. The entire cast is great, but the stand-outs are Miles Teller and J.K. Simmons. It's difficult to find the right words to describe just how amazing these two performances are. Teller does fantastic as the ambitious drumming student Andrew. The character is great because his change over the course of the film feels very natural and believable. In the beginning, he is shy and introverted. After earning the spot as core drummer, he gains confidence. But as time goes on, he goes from confident and relatable to obsessed and angry. Teller does an amazing job of showing this transformation and I really look forward to seeing what roles he will play in the future. But of course, the performance everyone is going to remember is J.K. Simmons as Terrence Fletcher. Simmons did not hold back at all. He was willing to go absolutely crazy on camera. The scenes where he lashes out at his students make the scenes where he is seemingly calm and kind all the more unsettling. In one scene Andrew watches him talking with an old friend and kindly asking the man's daughter if she'd like to be in his band some day. Five minutes later he's yelling at his students and threatening to "demolish" a random person standing nearby. There were actually moments where he was showing a softer side to his personality and I honestly had no idea if he was faking it or not. Moments like those were what really made Simmons worthy of that Oscar he won. It should come as no surprise that a film like this has great music. The all-jazz soundtrack is awesome and suits the movie really well. The drumming is also great of course. One drum solo in particular stands out as the best scene in the film. The sound mixing is great and I'm glad the Academy recognized this. Visually, Whiplash is stunning. The cinematography is great on it's own, but the film also has this interesting use of color palettes. Some scenes have a slight blue tint, others green, but most commonly orange. I liked this choice a lot as, paired with the jazz soundtrack, it added some style to the otherwise intense movie. The movie came in a rather odd case. It was thinner than all my other blu-rays and had some kind of clip on the side. It's not bad or anything, I just thought it was strange. There appears to be quite a lot of bonus features to look at, including the original Whiplash short film. I will update the review once I have looked at them all. Whiplash is just one more fantastic film to add to the growing list of great films from 2014. Overall, I'd say it is my second favorite of the year. It's an intense and heart-pounding story of obsession and how far a person is willing to go to achieve their dreams. The two lead performances are amazing and the ending is unforgettable. I definitely recommend giving Whiplash a try. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Contributor | Austin Stowell, Damien Chazelle, David Lancaster, Helen Estabrook, J.K.

WHIPLASH isn't just a film. It has to be seen to be believed. The plot, although it probably won't do it justice, is about a young drummer (Miles Teller) who is accepted into a conservatory jazz band led by Fletcher (J.K. Simmons). Miles Teller's character wants to be one of the greats, and Fletcher uses what some would consider questionable methods to push him in that direction. That's really all you need to know going in. I should say that this is the absolute best I've seen out of Miles Teller, having graduated from teen fare like THE SPECTACULAR NOW. And J.K. Simmons? Wow! He brought such an intensity to his role that I wasn't prepared for. He's probably the best antagonist I've seen since R. Lee Ermey in FULL METAL JACKET, and pretty much as creative. However, it's not just the performances that make this such a compelling watch. This film has some of the best editing I've ever seen, and it fit so well with the jazz score. The various production elements were tightly woven and integrated in a way that pulls you into the story and never lets you go until the final frame. Unlike, say BIRDMAN, this completely lived up to the hype in my opinion. As a character study on what it takes to succeed, WHIPLASH is second to none. This feels like something that will be studied in years to come, and it's definitely worth your time. THE EXTRAS: I have to admit, I was quite pleased with the special features they included in this Blu-ray release. There's a solid hour of additional material that deepened and enriched the experience. The largest of these is a 43-minute documentary, "Timekeepers," which has interviews with several real-life drummers (including director/writer Damian Chazelle) talking about their lives, experiences, teachers and wisdom they have to offer. I'm not a drummer (rather, a pianist), but advice they gave could well apply to any creative art. They also included the 18-minute short upon which the film is based and, to my surprise, J.K. Simmons played Fletcher in this as well. The short film is basically the first rehearsal scene with Fletcher's band and it played very much how it ended up in the full-length feature. Differences I noticed were the actor playing Andrew, the set, and a line or two that were in the full-length film but not in the short. I suppose the biggest difference was the slightly more restrained way that Simmons played Fletcher. This was perhaps my favorite out of all of the special features, and it also has an optional commentary track. Rounding out the supplements are a deleted scene (also with optional commentary) and 8 minutes of Q&A from TIFF. Finally, there is a commentary track for the film itself. Altogether, an impressive set of special features for an equally impressive film. OVERALL: The more I think about it, there are two words that accurately describe WHIPLASH: perversely inspirational. Motivation and drive are very important in any creative endeavor, as this film aptly shows. Sure, the drama and reality is somewhat heightened, but that's a basic necessity of cinema. Regardless of what field one is in, we've all had our own "Fletcher" at one point or another. And for me, what makes this film so great apart from its impeccable technical qualities is the dynamic between Andrew and Fletcher, one as compelling as it is fully realized. Even in the final scene, which I won't spoil, it was riveting to watch how that dynamic changed as they played off one another. I suppose I could go on for a while longer, but suffice it to say that WHIPLASH is one of the best modern films you will ever see. It's a shame that I was unable to see it last year, as it certainly would have made my top five. As for the collectors out there, I would consider this Blu-ray release essential. Not only do you get the best picture and sound (and the sound is particularly important with this one), but you also get the short film that inspired it. WHIPLASH delivers the intense experience it promises, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone willing to give it a try. ## Frequently Bought Together - Whiplash [Blu-ray] [4K UHD] - La La Land [Blu-ray + DVD + Digital HD] - Blade Runner 2049 (4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray) (4K Ultra) [4K UHD] --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.no/products/211395350-whiplash-4k-blu-ray-digital](https://www.desertcart.no/products/211395350-whiplash-4k-blu-ray-digital) --- *Product available on Desertcart Norway* *Store origin: NO* *Last updated: 2026-09-16*
