Some folks wrote that this movie was a mix-up of Marty Scorcese and Abel Ferrarra style and I think that's right. And Adam Sandler speaks, looks like, borrows every expression on the face from Al Pacino. I Don't know if the audiences have also noticed this but that's so obvious. Anyway, that's the kind of role, character that would have perfectly fit to Robert De Niro's co star in HEAT and the IRISHMAN. I like this uncut gem very much.
The pacing here is impressive. I felt like I was running through this entire movie and felt similarly about Good Time, another effort by the Safdie brothers. I still followed the story, though, and I think making a story more or less easy to follow is a hard line for writers to walk. Uncut Gems is frantic but coherent, and it walks this line perfectly.
It follows a really sleazy jeweler, masterfully played by Adam Sandler, as he upsets other people. I was shocked that Sandler was capable of this. I really couldn't take my eyes off of him.
The camera work, lighting, music, and other elements all work in service of the frantic plot. This is the most anxious thriller I've ever seen; in one word, it is FAST.

All reviews here are correct. The good ones and the bad ones. This movie is a mess and you can like it or hate. My wife hated it, I liked it very much.
Wow, what a ride. This wasn't the unbearable anxiety-fest that some are claiming, but it sure does invoke a lot of uneasiness throughout. The Safdie Brothers take you on a mesmerizing journey in the life of a gambling-addicted man in the Diamond District. Hopefully this puts to bed the idea that Adam Sandler isn't a good actor. He displays his incredible versatility and gives the performance of his career. I really loved the synth score used throughout and it greatly heightens the intensity at key moments. Uncut Gems is a shocking and stressful tour de force that is worthy of the praise heaped upon it.
Personally, I find the more a film affects my feelings and emotions, the better(no matter the emotion). From Tobe Hooper's "Texas Chainsaw Massacre", to "Free Solo", or even "August Osage County"; films aren't simply bad because they make you uncomfortable. One could argue; the more uncomfortable, the more effective. This is the case with Josh and Benny Safdie's "Uncut Gems".
Adam Sandler's comedies are hit and miss for me. Some are genuinely funny, some are not, but "Uncut Gems" just edged-out P. T. Anderson's "Punch Drunk Love" as my favorite film from this seemingly unrecognized serious actor. The Academy's omission of any nomination (especially for Sandler) is inexcusable. The film currently parks-itself behind "Parasite" as the second best film I have seen from 2019(36 films through an 84-film watchlist).
Sandler plays Howard Ratner, a Jewish Jewell Dealer mired in a world of debt, gambling, gangsters, and real-life Superstars. The casting is exceptional! Every single character makes the film more believable, and it needs them, because the world that Howard Ratner lives-in is so chaotic, that it may have plausibly crumbled-to-pieces without them. Sandler pulls-off the monumental task of creating audience empathy, for a character who is morally bankrupt. We want this guy to find his way out of this relentless hurricane.
The film never lets-off the gas. One might criticize the monotony and predictability of it all, if it weren't for some interesting family and gambling dynamics thrown into the mix. The film seems to be literally dropped into the climax of Ratner's life. There is so much that led to this crescendo, but still, the film manages to completely flesh-out it's characters. By the time it's all over, the viewer feels like they've been pulverized into diamond ash.
The ending is thought-provoking enough to make you ask questions, and the artistic value is nearly flawless. This is as uncomfortable as I've been watching a film in many years, and for that reason alone, it is a success.
9/10 for me.
You Might Like this if you liked: Pi, Charlie Countryman, Mississippi Grind, Sorcerer, or Leaving Las Vegas.

¿Sabías que…?
- TriviaTilda Swinton doesn't appear on screen but is the voice of the auctioneer that Howard argues with over the phone.
- ErroresIn the background at 1:43:23 you can hear a crew member feeding a line to Adam Sandler. As he was trying to have back the Celtics Ring from Steve you can hear someone saying "Swap them out" which Adam instantly Sandler repeats.
- Citas
Howard Ratner: And who's this guy?
Julia: It's this guy The Weeknd.
Howard Ratner: What the fuck is The Weeknd?
Julia: He's gonna be major, even though he's from Canada.
Howard Ratner: This guy looks stupid.
- Créditos curiososSPOILER: The end is almost a mirror image of the beginning, with the camera tunneling into Howard Ratner's (Adam Sandler) face, again on a microscopic level and again transitioning, but this time into what is possibly the beginning of time, and showing the night sky.
