Whiplash is a 2014 American drama film written and directed by Damien Chazelle, and starring Miles Teller, J. K. Simmons, and Paul Reiser. It focuses on an ambitious music student and aspiring jazz drummer (Teller), who is pushed to his limit by his abusive instructor (Simmons).

Andrew Neiman (Miles Teller): A 19-year-old ambitious jazz drummer enrolled at the prestigious, cut-throat Shaffer Conservatory in New York City.

Terence Fletcher (J.K. Simmons): A ruthless, abusive studio band instructor who believes "good job" are the most harmful words in the English language.
