Uncut Gems


Set in the Diamond district of New York City which follows the story of a jewelry store owner (Sandler) with a gambling addiction while trying to handle two relationships and debts at once. Stanfield is set to play as a key ally to a famous client of the jewelry store.

All of the buzz about Adam Sandler's performance in this was warranted.  This was easily the best acting he has ever done.  He kept it straight and managed to avoid going into goofyness although you could tell several times that he wanted to start improving.  The development of the story and the people involved kept you very hooked from start to finish and this movie could definitely warrant award buzz at the end of the year.

I would definitely recommend people checking this out.  It was a great watch and really showed you the dangers of gambling and falling into that world.
