what I really like about this movie is that how it makes your heart race whenever unpredictable things happen. the relatability creates an unnerving feeling. cinematics offered a real time experience as if you're the main character. it shows us how passion turns into obsession. it shatters us when someone takes over the only thing we're good at. the movie gave off a mixed feeling of rage, hatred, hope, passion, humiliation, and melancholy. i love how it highlighted unfortunate things that hinder success, cause that's how life works. i learned about this story that burning passion can hurt you. enjoy what you do. when you start feeling discouraged about pursuing what you love, look back and remember why you started it. once we indulge ourselves too much to something, we forget about how we felt doing it for the first time. keep the fire burning, but don't get burnt.

I just can not understand how this movie does get so much acclaim. The whole movie is just so unrealistic. I have learned and practiced 2 instruments here in Europe and can only say when I watch how this Shaffer character treats musicians like football players, this would never work. In such an environment any musician would get so tense and so full of fear to fail, he would certainly do exactly that. This is not how musicality and technique is teached. Never. Music is not sports. What Shaffer does may create a robot band that plays precise like a computer. But the music that comes out that way will sound alike. People in music are sensitive. Teaching is a process of mutual understanding, respecting and elevating between teacher and student. Further, a good drum technique with speed is not achieved by such tensioned convulsion, it needs the right finger and hand control and swing. The acting is certainly admirable but the cuts are sometimes worse then just distracting.

I was very surprised to see this movie do so well at the Oscars. The movie in a nutshell, to me, is exactly how NOT to teach anyone anything. The story walks you through a jazz class with a Drill Sergeant for a teacher that physically and verbally abuses his student in the name of greatness. The key message is being supportive, respectful and compassionate will get you nowhere. Hitting, abusing and destroying people will make your great! Hollywood for years has been advocating against bullying and now they give not one but three Oscar to a movie that glorifies Bullying??!! I was dumbfounded and sad. Yes, the performance s are great and the actors are very good, but no degree of acting should justify glorifying this method of teaching. What I hated most was that the movie made me like Jazz less. If this is what it takes to have great Jazz musicians then we do not need Jazz. Just to be clear. Hitting, screaming, psychological warfare, abuse and negativity DO not create great people or better musicians. They create abusive, disrespectful human beings that will continue the hate and the abuse. No wonder suicide rates for young people are high; if you are not good enough you are not worth playing, studying, living, etc. Just kill yourself. A very bad message to kids, students and teachers. Dreadful, Hollywood should be ashamed.
