Critical Score: 8.4/10
A memorable scene for me would be the opening scene where Andrew first meets Fletcher. This scene sets off the tone for the rest of the movie as it establishes the relationship between the two and constructs a sense of tension. The camera shots and mis-en-scene used also adds to this tension as it creates an abusive tone from the get-go.
– 9/10
when he is performing after being in a car crash due to the building of tension once he gets on stage also the last scene due to the fast pace editing and the conclusion where we see fletchers eyes smile with the extreme close up
I rate the film 10/10
My most memorable scene is the final scene as it displays a vast range of editing skills, camera angles and perfect use of pacing to create a unique intense and conclusive ending.
Rating: 10/10
Memorable scene- final scene ; the editing was impeccable and the cuts between Andrew and Fletcher stood out to me as they highlight him guiding Andrew therefore it provides a calmness to contrast the chaotic side of Andrew playing and Fletcher’s satisfaction of him.
Rating-
9.5/10
Memorable scene-
When Andrew is running to his first studio band session presuming he is late due to the fast paced editing which creates a sense of paranoia.
In addition the final scene for many reasons including the near perfect use of cinematography specifically the use of such different shots and camera angles.
Rating: 8/10
Memorable Scene- the final scene because the rest of the film built up to that moment.
Whiplash (Chazelle,2014) | CRITICAL SCORE: 8/10 | MEMORABLE SCENE: Final Scene The editing in the scene built tension (through the use of fast paced editing during climax point) highlighting the characters relationship and Andrews determination. |
In my opinion, this film is a 9/10, for strong editing that follows the pace of the music and movement. The most memorable scene was the 11-minute finale at the JVC competition, where Fletcher gives Andrew the wrong music in an attempt to destroy his career before it starts.
Critical score: 10/10
The most memorable scene for me is the finale scene, specifically when Andrew slows the tempo down all the way and then back up again, alluding to the previous comments made by Fletcher.
