Really great film. Sandler proves he can do more than get a cheap laugh out of people. Planning on seeing it again.

fast moving movie. lacked a solid story. Some of the references didn't sit well with me. Especially the types of bets Adam made and who he borrowed money from . Good on Demand Movie Guys.

Highly overrated. It is just okay when viewed through the narrow perspective of "what are they trying to portray and what do they want the audience to experience. The movie just doesn't live up to the hype. It is just another film that leaves you wondering "what else could…

Adam Sandlers performance in this movie was outstanding, unfortunately it will most likely be overlooked when award time comes along. This is so far out of Adam Sandlers usual comfort zone that just for that reason he deserves at least an Oscar nomination, not sure he will…

this is a rather busy film that forces you to connect with the main character.some may find a personal connection with other characters depending on how you see yourself

Great to see Sandler in a "dark" role. The movie would have been a 4 or 5 if they would have intensified certain scenes (more people showing up to ....)Good overall and def a good watch!

Was VERY disappointed, Adam's movies on Netflix was so much better, and I could fast forward thru those, this movie needed an eject button! If you like the F word this is your kinda movie, I heard all the guys as the credits began, tell their dates ''I'm Sorry''. Should…

I tagged along with my mom and knew nothing about the movie going in. It was okay. There was a constant feeling of unease, chaos, and/or tension. Some scenes I feel were put in just for the shock factor. They didn't really contribute to the story.

I drove home in silence because I did not want to hear any noise after having to sit through the constant yelling and obnoxiously loud soundtrack. Terrible movie over all. Adam Sandler needs to just stop

The movie was good at some point while watching it you’ll think like is this really plot sensitive?

Metacritic

Dec 19, 2019

The only term is relentless, and for a lot of viewers Uncut Gems’ third act has been stressful, even traumatic. My response was more one of sheer awe – of the Safdies’ brilliant balancing act, of Sandler’s swirling dance of a performance, and of Howard’s sprint through a minefield.

Sandler is so good, so committed and so watchable that, despite everything — Howard’s irrationality, a rogue’s gallery of unpleasant characters, the foreboding of a bad, bad end — you can’t take your eyes off the screen, which Sandler seldom vacates.

Uncut Gems jitters and skitters and lurches and hurtles with Howard’s desperate energy. Sandler’s frantic and fidgety performance provides the movie with its emotional backbone, and he’s not alone.
