The BEST film of the year so far! From the acting to the story to the direction to the editing! This is a fast paced, entertaining film! Anyone who's ever had an inclination to pursue music as a career or just loves music should see this film! It better not be snubbed by the Oscars!

The best movie that I have seen in years. I will see it again...
GREAT MOVIE. J K Simmons should be a shoo-in for an Oscar as should the young, FABULOUS drummer be nominated for BEST supporting actor. What an unexpected thrill this movie is. How wonderful, terrific this great this movie is. I recommended it to many friends who weren't going to see Whiplash.....they did, and loved it also.
Outstanding, riveting and thoroughly entertaining. Great story, and you don't know how it will end (which is unusual these days). Incredible acting by all. A definite must see at the theatre.
Great intense movie about a drummer trying to make it but the dynamics remind me of a movie about sports and the drive and commitment to be great
get ripped.
Outstanding movie
This is a fantastic movie that depicts the intense drive and commitment it takes for the main character, Andrew Neyman, to succeed as the core drummer in a prestigious jazz band. Miles Teller and JK Simmons are riveting!!
Saw this at TIFF, fabulously entertaining, very well done, thunderous applause as we lept to out feet on the final note.
