Review of Whiplash (2014) by Jeff R — 04 Jan 2017

What does it take to become world class? And do the ends justify the means? Whiplash doesn't give you the direct answers to those questions... However, more than any other film I have seen, Whiplash forces the audience to deeply consider both the sacrifice that the greatest among us have had to endure as well as how far is too far when you're trying to draw greatness it out of someone.
