Uncut Gems - DVD

Not the usual thing you would see adam sandler do. Not have a funny voice the whole time and have a happy ending. Very good movie

This is one intense drama, yet like "Glengarry, Glen Ross," it's a must see for film aficionados. Stellar acting. Not to be preachy, but it's also a good lesson about the horrors of greed and personal addictions. Adam Sandler nailed it as one miserable, not very likable person who's brought most of his problems on himself.

I watched this when it was in Theater and wanted the dvd to add to my Adam Sandler collection. This is such a good movie and Adam’s character is so well played that he seems real. Adam deserved an award for this one.

Not what I was expecting, but damn impressive, nonetheless. From the gorgeous, albeit surprising opening—seeing through the black opal and transitioning into Howard’s colonoscopy cam—to the ending scene, showing the full circle of the life of a “gem.” with violence used sparingly as a storytelling tool, a soundtrack with such strong atmosphere that it wouldn’t let your eyes stray from the screen, and actors portrayals being so real, this film was one to lose yourself in. Howard’s character was so believably narcissistic that I’m not entirely sure I’ll be able to stomach seeing the film a second time. His seeming inability to look anyone in the eyes and speak to them face-to-face—have a legitimate conversation. And his inability to sit still and focus on one single task at a time—even when everything is quite obviously escalating, leaves you with literal stomach clenching stress and anxiety. Something Howard seems incapable of feeling. I’m sure that after more thought/ruminating some inconsistencies or faults with the film will come to mind—but first glance shows nothing but praise for this one. Adam Sandler rocked his roll so hard. Same goes for Idina Menzel, Julia Fox, Lakeith Stanfield, and Eric Bogosian. ___________________________________ Critical enjoyment? 4.5/5 Personal enjoyment? 4/5 Probability of rewatch? 2/5 Extra notes? Colonoscopy footage, probable NPD rep, high stress situations/possibly anxiety-inducing. Also a couple of highly graphic/gory scenes.

I never cared for Sandler movies never thought he was really funny. When I saw the previews I liked him as this dramatc character. Die hard fans were not kind in reviews. Opposite for me. I watched, understood the dramatics and the ending was very clear why it happened. In the end winning had nothing to do with the result. What led up to that point did. Sometimes you get fed up and just break. Different people handle breaking points in different ways. Sad but ending was understandable if you watch and pay attention.

Not only is it my favorite film from the Safdie Brothers, but it just might be my favorite movie of all time. I can never stop thinking about this movie, and the ending is an ending I always come back to rewatching weekly. And the OST for this movie is truly hypnotizing, I listen to the track “Back To Roslyn” on a daily basis. Everything about this movie I find pleasant, and every here and then I tend to forget the Sandman is the main star of this movie, sometimes I really cannot see Sandler, I only see nothing but the masjestic Howie Bling. If you want to witness a movie you’ll never forget about, this one is it.

I’ve read other reviews and those people were angry because this movie is too real for them. I don’t agree with those bad reviews, I enjoyed this movie. Adam Sandler was very different and I like different. He portrays a really bad sports gambler who is flawed just like everyone else is in this world. I like funny man Adam Sandler, but to see him in this role was so cool for me. If you’re into gritty, raw realism you might like it. If not, oh well everyone is different.

First off and foremost let me tell you this movie has a lot of “Swearing. didn’t know it was so. the abundance of swearing could fill let me see. about thirty movies. no kidding you I am. this is my second movie by these director brothers Benny and Joshua Safdie” other “Good Time” but man I got to say Adam Sandler knock it out of the park for me. but man every other word is a swear. Sandler (Howard Ratner) a jeweler finds himself in trouble from the rich and famous. this is also a very fast-paced movie with very close-up of facial expression. and to booth the “Weekend” (Abel Makkonen Tesfaye) is in here doing what he dose best. sing. Even Kevin Garnett Is in the movie.. Widescreen 2.39:1 Runtime 135 Min. English 5.1 DTS-HD Master..

Advertised as region free but is region A locked and will not play on any of my Blu-ray players. Disappointing.

une vraie beauté, je ne l'ai pas trouvé en zone 1 mais quel film, Adam Sandler au top, vivement l'oscar pour les frères Safdie

Adoro esta pelicula y todo está bien con mi pedido, pero viene sin slipcover y ese era el motivo por el que la había adquirido, la edición se ve mas bonita con su slipcover, la verdad. :(

L’oggetto è arrivato distrutto nella plastica esterna ma, peggio ancora, non è la stessa versione da me ordinata che prevedeva un dvd e un bd. Cosa grave con perdita di tempo.
