Adam Sandler pivots from his comedies to star in the Crime/Drama called Uncut Gems, and become Howard Ratner, a jeweler with a greed so big he is willing to make deal after deal while compromising everyone else he has had business with, just for the ultimate prize.
In Uncut Gems, it’s impossible to root for Howard. He is a plain asshole all the time and constantly tries to manipulate everyone around him to the point that he treats those who care about him like trash. This only makes his comeuppance all-the-more predictable and earned. Although, that doesn’t mean that the climax and his comeuppance isn’t shocking. It is written and displayed in such a way that the emotional stakes of the moment balance in favor of Howard. That is certainly a win for the writers and editors.
This is perhaps Sandler’s best performance to date, although we think it certainly won’t be enough to make the cut for the big awards since this year was full of outstanding performances. His performance was always on edge, and perhaps it was too intense.
Sandler explores a one-sided & one-dimensional personality who is always bursting into hyperbolized emotion: He is always yelling, angry, euphoric and impatient, and perhaps this unbalanced range is what won’t be enough for him to become a top contender.
The movie almost never stops from its intense and edgy tone with its constant offputting music, fast editing, the over the top screaming discussions, and complex manipulative plans from Howard. The oddly electric music combined with its fast editing are the key factors that make this movie have its psychedelic feeling. This makes up a movie that doesn’t let you breathe with a pace so fast that it can sometimes be tiresome.
Uncut Gems Score: 8/10
A true psychedelic expression of what gambling can do to a person until it consumes him. It is thrilling, unnerving and well-acted all around; but most importantly, Uncut Gems is a solid piece of film that can sometimes become wearisome for the viewer.
