Whiplash

Miles Teller makes a brilliant leap from angry twat in Divergent to a percussion prodigy in the film Whiplash.  His performance is spot on genius right down to his sick drumming skills.  
J.K. Simmons proves he is way more than a character in an insurance commercial.  His performance had me going from laughing out loud to cringing in my seat.  I love every profanity-laced sentence out of his mouth.
This movie is gritty, captivating, and raw and let's not forget the uncredited character of the movie-- the music.  Every note, every measure, every song is pure delight.  I frickin' loved it.  Every second of it - hands down my favorite film thus far.  For me, this is the must -see movie of Oscar season.
