Atom User Reviews for Uncut Gems
Excellent movie, Adam Sandlers deserve a Oscar for His acting!!
Don’t waste your time
It was the worst movie ever and it was boring! DO NOT ago and see this movie!
I couldn't wait for it to end
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 I have done with my time?".
Unique role for Adam Sandler....very intense
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 get it but he does deserve it.
i do recommend this movie! a must watch!
Too stressful. I watch movies to relax, have fun, find excitement. Avoid and reduce stress.
Can I get a refund?
Absolute masterpiece. Movie of the decade. 10/10
Truly mesmerizing.
This movie gave me anxiety
I’m shock but what a amazing movies one of if not Adam Sandler’s best movies
Bad story. Main characters have no redeeming qualities. I can never get my 2 hours of life back.
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!
I really, Really, REALLY enjoyed this movie! It was great! One of the best movies I’ve seen in a while. Go see it!
Good movie
Great Film. Adam Sandler was just WOW!!!! Can anyone say Best actor nominee?👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Plot twist - there was no plot twists. Can I have two hours of my life back?
it sucks
Couldn’t follow the plot of the movie.
Good movie but super stressful
Excellent movie. The ending will get you!
Adam Sandler really shocked me into how easily he was able to play Howard after seeing him in just comedies.
This movie had too much yelling and screaming. I couldn’t wait till it ended so I could leave
man with gambling addiction that lead to his death.
A bit too long for me but overall I thought it was good. Left too much open and yes, Howie...was ANNOYING!
Worst movie all year.
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 have gone with my instincts after 10 minutes in, now that's 2 hrs and 15 mins (plus da 25 mins of previews) of my life I can't get back, wait for disc or FX if they'll even pick it up
Movie sucks theeeee worst!! Adam Sandler does theeee end
By far, one of Adam Sandlers better movies.
Amazing!!!
Adam Sandler’s best role since early 2000s! He deserves an Oscar nomination at least!
this is must see. this is not your regular Adam Sandler. this has you wondering what will happen from scene to scene. you will not regret seeing it. the ending.
Some good performances in a meandering plot line.
Great movie I just wish it ended on a greater note than it did....
Adam Sandler was, for once, a real actor!!
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
Worse Adam Sandler movie I’m so disappointed
Felt like a total waste of time, some people left the movie. Only giving 2 stars for the cast. Entire movie was anxiety inducing music and just total disarray. Main character (Sandler) has zero redeeming qualities and was a dirt bag the entire way through. Just didn’t have a point and felt stressful due to the music and commotion.
Awesome. Clever & well scored. One of the best I've seen all year.
Good acting. Slow and boring story. Not worth going to watch at the theater
Wayyy too much cursing. Adam Sandler's character got on my nerves. The ending was unexpected 😱
That dude get on my nerves! I really can’t stand Adam Sandler (Howard) They better be glad T-Mobile Tuesday Hooked me up with $5 off !!!
Lame and underwhelming
Metacritic
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.
