Whiplash

The next Charlie Parker would never be discouraged.
How far would you go to be great?

In Whiplash, greatness isn’t given it’s torn out, beat by beat. Miles Teller stars as a gifted young drummer determined to rise to the top, no matter the cost. J.K. Simmons delivers a ferocious, Oscar-winning performance as the instructor who pushes him past every limit mentally, physically, and morally.

This isn’t just a music film it’s a psychological thriller set to a jazz beat. Visceral, intense, and unrelenting, Whiplash is a masterclass in obsession and sacrifice.

For anyone who’s ever chased excellence or been destroyed by it this is a film that demands to be seen on the big screen.
