An absolute great roller coaster of events that feels like a redemption for Adam Sandler (For all the movies he participated in) and the Safdie Brother (For the unrecognizable Good Time. This picture is great in every aspects, sound mixing, sequencing of events and especially performing, seriously Adam Sandler, where you've been hiding all of that talent man, a strong candidate for the best performance in a leading role this year. Although, this movie will show a lot of secrets about gambling, but it will be difficult for people who don't know anything about basketball, but the good thing is that it will show them the way of understanding what's going on. Last but not least, I got to give it the KG, seriously, he is a great actor and honestly I wish to see him performe more often in the future. Overall, I had a great time watching this one and it definitely deserves a 9/10 rating.

WARNING: Major spoilers for? Uncut Gems? ahead. Uncut Gems ?features multiple events that happened in the real world.?Rather than being set in present day New York, Benny and Josh Safdie's film takes place in 2012, and the script?integrates?the real life events of two of its cast members:?former NBA star Kevin Garnett and?singer The Weeknd. In?Garnett's?first?major film role, the former Boston Celtics star plays a fictionalized version of himself,?who becomes?obsessed with?a rare gem that Howard Ratner (Sandler) procures from Ethiopia. Garnett brings the gem with him to two 2012?NBA playoff?games, which played out in the film's story. Additionally, Canadian singer Abel Tesfaye (known as The Weeknd) plays himself, as Uncut Gems coincided with the current pop superstar's rise to fame. Continue scrolling to keep reading Click the button below to start this article in quick view. The Safdie Brothers made all of the real-life events?essential to the drama as well as Ratner's trials and tribulations, effectively weaving them into the script. Here's how all of Uncut Gems ' actual events went happened in real life. Celtics vs. 76ers, Game 3 The first of the two NBA games that played a pivotal role in? Uncut Gems? was Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals, which took place on May 16, 2012, between Garnett's Celtics and the Philadelphia 76ers.?Garnett, playing a seven-years-younger version of himself that was still in the NBA, visits Ratner's shop early that day, and Ratner shows him a rare opal that he managed to siphon from a mining accident in Ethiopia. Garnett becomes enamored with the opal, eventually convincing Ratner to let him hold it for Game 3 in exchange for his NBA championship ring. Meanwhile, Ratner puts a huge bet on Garnett's performance in the game, parlaying the overs on a number of?his stats. In real life, Game 3 was one of Garnett's best performances. The Celtics were favored in the series, with Philadelphia only having managed to sneak into the second round after their first round opponent, the Chicago Bulls, lost former MVP Derrick Rose to a season-ending injury. But Philadelphia was surprisingly competitive in the first two games, losing Game 1 by just one point, then stunning Boston with a Game 2 victory.?The Celtics then dominated as they were supposed to in Game 3, with Garnett?tallying 27 points and 13 rebounds in a 107-91 victory. The game had tremendous importance in Uncut Gems. Garnett's performance had Ratner hitting his parlay,?and appearing to collect a huge payday. But his loan shark brother-in-law Arno (Eric Bogosian) to whom he?owes money, puts a stop on the bet. This only further puts him in debt, leading to a series of increasingly erratic decisions. Additionally, Garnett refuses to give the gem back, believing it to be the key to his great play ??causing further problems for Howard. The Weeknd plays an early club show Another celebrity that plays a seven-years-younger version of himself is Abel Tesfaye, or The Weeknd. Now an international superstar, in 2012 he was very much still up-and-coming, having?yet to release a studio album. Ratner's associate and mistress Julia (Julia Fox) photographs Tesfaye, saying he is going to be huge " even though he is Canadian. Howard?crashes one of his club shows in New York,?hoping to find the missing opal there. Unbeknownst to him, Tesfaye and Julia are together in a bathroom backstage. It's certainly feasible that The Weeknd would have been playing low-key club shows around this time, but it's?possible that this specific show in? Uncut Gems ? was a creative liberty taken by the Safdie Brothers. The show must take place in the days after Game 3, likely May 17th or later,?as they had?been chasing down the opal for at least a full day. In real life, The Weeknd was in the midst of his first-ever solo tour, but he had two sold-out shows in New York the month before: April 25 at Music Hall of Williamsburg and April 28 at Bowery Ballroom. He had no shows between May 11 and June 2, so he could have conceivably done a smaller club appearance in New York as portrayed in the film. But there is no record of it actually happening. The song he sings in the film, The Morning. was released in 2011 on his mixtape? House of Balloons. When Howard arrives at the concert, not only does he not get the gem back, he also discovers Julia in the bathroom with The Weeknd. The two men fight, and Howard storms out, later kicking Julia out of his apartment. Celtics vs. 76ers, Game 7 Uncut Gems ' climactic scene takes place in the backdrop of the seventh and final game of that Eastern Conference Semifinal series, which occurred on May 26, 2012. After giving the opal back to Howard, Garnett had a bad?outing in Game 4, only scoring nine points. So he made it his mission to get it back, eventually buying it from Ratner for 175, 000.?Ratner, in the throes of his gambling addiction, decides to make the move that would ultimately seal his fate. Instead of taking that money and repaying the loan sharks ? who are literally in his?store at this exact moment to collect ? he takes the entire sum and bets it on another parlay involving Garnett. In order for Howard to win the bet, Garnett has to win the opening tip, collect a combined 27 rebounds and points, and the Celtics have to win the game. The film's pulse-pounding finale involves Ratner watching the game with the loan sharks trapped in his store,?after Julia races to the Mohegan Sun casino in Connecticut to place the bet. In real life, this turned out to be another signature game from Garnett. He scored 18 points and collected 13 rebounds, leading the Celtics to victory and the next round of the playoffs.?The film shows a postgame interview with Garnett where he says he is all about "the rock. which has a double meaning ? it could either mean the basketball, as it is often referred to, or the actual gem itself. However, this interview is fake. In the real interview,?conducted by ESPN 's Doris Burke, he mostly focuses on his teammates. Anytime you win, that's all the satisfaction you need. Garnett actually said after the game. Unfortunately,? things end badly for Ratner. Despite winning his parlay and cashing in with over 1. 6 million, one of the fed-up loan sharks immediately shoots?Howard?in the head when he lets him out of captivity. Julia does make it out with the money, despite the loan sharks' goons pursuing her at the casino. But the final shot shows Ratner lying dead on the floor, as the goons loot his shop. Next:?

Warning: This article contains major spoilers for? Uncut Gems. The Uncut Gems ?ending?comes almost as a sigh of relief, relinquishing the audience from two hours of unnerving and unrestrained stress courtesy of its main character, Howard Ratner. Directed by Benny and Josh Safdie, the film follows Ratner (Adam Sandler) a charismatic and eccentric jeweler in the Big Apple's Diamond District, through a series of ill-conceived bets and a sea of ferocious loan sharks until he finally achieves what he always wanted: his big break. In a surprisingly successful turn of events,? Uncut Gems? implements a hybrid cast of high-brow performers (most of which are making their big screen debuts) and fresh faces for its immersive and stressful theatrical experience.?Joining Sandler are fellow actors Lakeith Stanfield, Idina Menzel, and Judd Hirsch, as well as non-film-related celebrities like NBA star Kevin Garnett, Canadian singer The Weeknd,?sports broadcaster Mike Francesca, and model Paloma Elsesser. Continue scrolling to keep reading Click the button below to start this article in quick view. Set in 2012 on the brink of the Boston Celtics?semifinal series against the Philadelphia 76ers,? Uncut Gems ?begins with Ratner obtaining what he considers to be a perfectly priced possession: a rare and illegal gem from an Ethiopian Jewish mining company. With it, he hopes to settle his outstanding gambling debts ? most prominently, the hefty sum he owes his brother-in-law Arno (Eric Bogosian) ? by selling the opal at an auction. But when his assistant Demany (Stanfield) brings Kevin Garnett to the store, things start to go awry. Garnett, who peers into the immaculate crystals, feels that with the opal in his possession, his on-court performance would be unstoppable, and successfully bargains to hold onto the gem for his upcoming games. Meanwhile, Ratner's gambling?obsession is coupled by his crippling marriage with Dinah (Idina Menzel) and his off-the-rails affair with his much younger employee, Julia (Julia Fox. As the film unwinds,?dispelling a voluptuously unsettling series of events onto the audience, the levels of paranoia, intensity, and fright all rapidly increase until finally bursting in the Uncut Gems ending. For what it's worth, this climax is just as stressful as the rest of the film, concluding on one last shot that may have audience members scratching their heads out of the theater. Here's a breakdown of all that happened in the? Uncut Gems ?ending. What Happens In Uncut Gems' Ending There comes a point in? Uncut Gems? where it seems like a very fine line is crossed. Witnessing Ratner squirm out of countless numbers of close calls and dodgy bets, while simultaneously digging himself into a bigger and bigger hole, the viewer begins to sense that there is absolutely no way the New York jeweler can come out on top. To the film's credit, however, for a good long while, Howard looks like he may actually wiggle his way out of this jam. After botching his chances at the auction by asking his father-in-law Gooey (Hirsch) to drive up the price, Howard and Garnett soon come to an understanding over the gem, finally settling on the 175, 000 the basketball star had originally offered towards the beginning of the film. Though he now has enough money to pay off his brother-in-law, whose patience is quickly drying out, Ratner opts instead to?put the money on the line once again and place another bet on Garnett. Handing off the money to Julia, who in turn, sneaks out of the office away from Arno's goons and to a casino, Howard then traps his brother-in-law and his muscle in between the locked doors separating the jewelry store from the hallway. In this predicament, Howard forces them to watch the game as Kevin Garnett's historic performance provides the gambling jeweler with his big break. Arno, awestruck by what he just witnessed, experiences a change of heart, though his hitman Phil (Keith Williams Richards)?does not. After being relinquished from the claustrophobic prison Howard had kept them in for the duration of the basketball game, Phil leaps up, steams over to Howard and shoots him in the head at point blank range. When Arno protests to the death of his brother-in-law, Phil similarly shoots his boss in the head, before proceeding to loot Howard's store of all the jewelry inside. Howard Ratner's Death Explained & Meaning Uncut Gem 's final shot leaves off on Howard's corpse, lying on its?back?and staring up at the sky in a rapidly growing pool of blood. The camera engages in another one of its uncomfortably extensive zooms, this time penetrating through the bullet hole in Howard's cheek and through his head until finally coasting through the familiar?geologic and colorful terrain of the opal. This symbiotic conclusion confirms what the bulk of Uncut Gems' 135-minute runtime infers: that Howard's life revolved around greed. The Safdie Brothers' have confirmed to? The Wrap ? that the kaleidoscopic aesthetic achieved by peering into the gemstone is a representation of the circle of life. So just as Howard had lived by the pursuit of money, just so had he died. Where Does The Money Go? Julia's rather heroic exit making off with Howard's money seals Uncut Gems off on a relatively happy note. In reality, should Uncut Gems ?have continued, Julia's happiness would not have lasted long, given that she would have inevitably discovered that the life she was excited to begin and the man she was prepared to spend it with were now both dead. This does leave the question of what happens with?Howard's winnings up in the air. Because Julia was aware of Howard's familial situation, and that she, other than that one pervasive scene with The Weeknd, is a good person, it's likely that she wouldn't leave Howard's three fatherless children completely ignorant of their father's grand prize. Splitting the several hundreds of thousands of dollars with the rest of the Ratners in their time of grieving (though the children, other than Howard's eldest son, don't seem too enthused by their father) it's a good feeling knowing that Julia has a relatively open path at a new start in New York City, or anywhere else she'd please. This is assuming, of course, that Julia makes it out with the money alive. Because Howard has been killed, it is?very possible that the?few remaining people he'd owed?would relinquish their pursuit of getting their money back. But Phil and his team, as the only people who know how much money Howard had just earned, could very possibly go after her and the cash, especially since their professional?ties with Arno have ceased to be. But if what happens to Julia was of pressing concern, the Safdie Brothers would have included it in? Uncut Gems, their horrifyingly entrapping tale of greed, addiction, and, in an odd way,?Judaism.

Joias brucas. Until now, I thought that the best metaphor for filmmaking that Id ever seen in a movie was found in Akira Kurosawas “High and Low”: throwing bags of money out of a speeding train. But Josh and Benny Safdie s new film, “Uncut Gems, ” offers a better, if more elaborate, one, when its protagonist, Howard Ratner (Adam Sandler) a Diamond District jewelry dealer whos also a compulsive gambler, places a bet on a basketball game. Howard isnt merely risking money on the outcome; hes crafting a story that, for the bet to pay off, has to come out right?who wins the opening tip-off, how many points a particular player will score, whether or not the winning team covers the spread. Howards story has to correspond to reality, or, rather, vice versa. With his grandiose vision of winning, hes the ultimate fantasist and, in his mortal dependence on what actually happens, the ultimate realist. Hes a lot like a director behind a camera. The soundtrack of “Uncut Gems” is jittery with the hectic electronica of Daniel Lopatin, a. k. a. Oneohtrix Point Never, but the mind-bending score could have been replaced by overlays of multiple out-of-synch ticking clocks, to mark the overwhelming intensity of the dramas chronological pressure. The Safdie brothers movie is desperately timed; the forty-eight-year-old Howard measures out his days and nights not in coffee spoons but in the arc of a three-pointer, the slam of a car door, the paired buzzes of his showrooms double-safe, electrically controlled bulletproof-glass barriers. Howards very survival is a matter of precise timing and of his urgent, off-balance storytelling. (The movies editing, by Benny Safdie and Ronald Bronstein?who co-wrote the script with the brothers?evokes the visual clamor of its clashing urgencies. Howard tries to sidestep his creditors and their violent enforcers with instantaneously improvised lies that have to be timed with a comedians precision to elude their grasp. He plans to pay one with money owed to another and winnings that havent yet come in, and, if his borrowings and his scams, his debts and his dodges, dont fit together in exactly the right sequence, the entire house of cards that is his life will come tumbling down. Its also a movie of a cruel physicality, of the clash of textures, of the hard and the soft, the viscous and the solid and even the ethereal?a tale of blood and fluids that starts in Ethiopia, in 2010, where a miner is carried from his worksite with a horrifically bloody wound, and continues to a video screen in New York, in 2012, where Howard is having a colonoscopy and a doctor is narrating his cameras enteral journey. Its only the first of the movies bloody byways, only the earliest of the movies visions of bodily mortification. Howard is, from the time hes in motion, in danger, confronting in his showroom a pair of toughs sent by a loan shark named Arno (Eric Bogosian) to whom he owes a hundred thousand dollars. The numbers may be an abstraction, but the goods?gemstones, fancy watches (whether hot or legit) and cash?are physical, as are the threats by which theyre extracted from debtor to creditor. From the start, Howard?wearing an ostentatious leather jacket, a two-tone shirt with the tag still dangling out of its collar, ever so slightly too decorative glasses, an overly trimmed goatee, and a watch that could build biceps?strides through the Diamond District talking at top speed into his cell phone. Hes plotting the score of a lifetime: importing?or, rather, smuggling?a rare, uncut, large black opal from Ethiopia, which hes expecting to sell, through an upscale auction house, for a million dollars. But, when the opal finally reaches his showroom, other business gets in the way: Howards employee, Demany (Lakeith Stanfield) whos his liaison to athletes and hip-hop artists, brings the pro-basketball star Kevin Garnett (playing himself) to the showroom. There, Garnett sees the opal, feels its power (which Howard has been hyping) and decides that he must have it as an aid to his game. (Garnett was playing, in 2012, for the Boston Celtics, and the action is set during that years playoffs. Howard is loath to part with the opal, but he senses that the transaction gives him a betting advantage. Meanwhile, another clock is ticking: Howards marriage, to Dinah, pronounced “Deenah” (Idina Menzel) is over; its in its zombie-like afterlife. The family (including their teen-age daughter, a near-adolescent son, and a young boy) lives in a house in the suburbs, but Howard is there only symbolically: Dinah is ending the marriage, but the couple have agreed to stay together through Passover to maintain a temporary illusion of family unity. Howard comes home after work to see the children and then, on pretext of more work, leaves?for an apartment in midtown, where he lives with Julia (Julia Fox) a young woman who works for him in the showroom. Julia is a salesperson who trawls the night life for potential customers; she may or may not also be cheating on Howard, but, in any case, she parties hard and allays Howards constant suspicions with sexual enticements. The Safdies have long specialized in drama kings and queens, in protagonists who knock their lives out of joint and into action with breathless, reckless, perpetual cycles of frenzied, self-imposed challenges and daily dangers. Howard is the first whose drama seems essentially creative?he is, in effect, playing a dangerous series of shell games for high stakes in order to lend his life high dramatic moment, and his elaborate invention of lies to shimmy out of his creditors menacing clutches comes off as a performance in which he himself delights. His gem-and-jewelry business is already stressful and risky enough, but its his gambling?and the intricate flow chart of debts and cadges?that fills his life with stories and turns every moment into a life-or-death crisis. The highs of success (rare though they may be) arent the sole point, and the money itself isnt the key payoff: its the creation and experience of a dramatic life, the daily tensions and thrills and dangers, the off-balance improvisational theatre into which he has converted his humdrum suburban existence?to which, nonetheless, for sentimental reasons, he clings fiercely and desperately. Even the punishment, the fear, and the humiliation seem to be part of the terrible pleasure. “Uncut Gems” jitters and skitters and lurches and hurtles with Howards desperate energy. Sandlers frantic and fidgety performance provides the movie with its emotional backbone, and hes not alone: Menzels swing between the steadfast and the derisive, Bogosians terrifying calm, Stanfields good-humored acuity, Garnetts elevated poise, Foxs survivalist ferocity, and the vivid contributions of a wide range of other performers, including such notables as Judd Hirsch and, in voice-over roles, Tilda Swinton and Natasha Lyonne, plus real-life celebrities (the Weeknd, playing himself, and Mike Francesa, playing a bookie)?along with a host of newcomers, such as Keith Williams Richards and Tommy Kominik, as enforcers, and Roman Persits, as a jeweller?swirl and clash and rumble, in a symphonic tangle of overlapping and intertwining high-volume voices. The Safdie brothers have always been artists of chaos, whose daring methods of filming (including working on location without permits and blending their scripted action with whatever comes up in the street) have been reflected in their films frenetic action and reckless characters. But in “Uncut Gems” their system and their cinema, the story of the production and the story that they tell, converge all the more violently, and in risky new ways. This is, by far, the Safdies biggest-budget movie to date. The figure hasnt been disclosed, but the movie was co-executive-produced by Martin Scorsese and, as Kelefa Sanneh reports in his profile of the Safdies in The New Yorker, its the first time that the filmmakers had to deal with trucks and trailers on location, and they had to tailor their practices to fit. After making movies on ultra-low budgets for more than a decade, and with an only slightly elevated one for “ Good Time ” (which stars Robert Pattinson and Jennifer Jason Leigh) its clear that they know what to do with the money: in a very literal sense, the money is on the screen, and, for that matter, the money suffuses the action and provides the movie with its very tone.

Joias brutal legend. 4 / 5 stars 4 out of 5 stars. A towering performance from the often tiresome actor drives an anxiety-inducing film about a risk-addicted jewelry dealer Adam Sandler in Uncut Gems. Photograph: A24 I n Uncut Gems, the Safdie brothers anxiety-inducing follow-up to Good Time, we spend over two hours attached at the hip to Adam Sandler, a prospect that might not seem particularly thrilling. But the guy who signed a mammoth deal with Netflix “because it rhymes with wet chicks” is also the guy who chose to work with Paul Thomas Anderson and Noah Baumbach, film-makers willing to look beyond the fart jokes to see an actor who just needs to be directed. Both roles were particularly compelling not just because they represented such a dramatic departure from the kind of movie we associate him with but also because his style of acting was suddenly so transformed. Often when comedy stars “go serious”, you can see the shadow of their funnier selves in every scene, but when taken out of his comfort zone, the Sandler we know virtually disappears. There was humour in both Punch-Drunk Love and The Meyerowitz Stories but it was awkward and intimate, more likely to make one shift in their seat than guffaw. Sandler has an under-appreciated ability to connect with the uncomfortable aspects of his more fleshed out characters, embarrassingly so at times, and his latest, arguably greatest, delve into drama pushes this to a whole new level. He plays fast-talking jewelry dealer Howard Ratner, a man who spends his days frantically trying to make money while being followed by the men he owes money to, an exhausting lifestyle he cant seem to escape. But the more we get to know Howard, the less it seems like he wants to, forever inserting himself in increasingly precarious situations. Howard is the best, and worst, kind of antihero, caught in a trap of his own making, a way out always frustratingly in sight. As in Good Time, the Safdies have plotted out a perilous obstacle course for their protagonist involving the NBA player Kevin Garnett, a rare opal from an Ethiopian mine, a soon-to-be-ex wife and The Weeknd, and despite Howard continually testing our patience, we are unavoidably invested, sighing at his every misstep, figuring out whether we want him to succeed or fail. Its an intentionally stressful experience, not just because of Howards aggressively frustrating character but because the Safdies take pleasure in our displeasure. The film packs in so many raised voices, blaring soundtrack choices and gaudy visuals that it often feels like a rather obnoxious sensory overload but were never alienated because theres a deceptive delicacy behind these excesses. Were hurtling through the world that Howard lives and works in and its not patronisingly translated or sanitised for us, its just presented as is, and I admired how atmospheric they made it, a world I never once doubted. I also never once doubted Sandler, whose incisive character work here is probably the most impressive acting we have seen from him to date. It would have been far too easy to turn Howard into an overly mannered cartoon but Sandler opts for something far more precise and grounded. Its a performance entirely lacking in vanity ? he makes Howard buffoonish at times, unpleasant at others ? and despite being an immediately recognisable star, my idea of Sandler and what he represents quickly faded once the film began. Its a turn as immersive as the film around him and makes you crave more outside of his almost entirely useless Netflix deal. Its a remarkable match-up between film-makers and actor and reaffirms the importance of that partnership, especially for a movie star stuck in a profitable rut. Sandler deserves more, and if he wants us to keep watching, then so do we. Uncut Gems is showing at the Toronto film festival and will be released in the US on 13 December with a UK date yet to be announced. Joias brutus. What did we do to deserve the gift of a theatrical re-release of? Uncut Gems? The A24 flick is coming back to theaters the weekend of February 7 and features a very special bit of bonus content you can only see in theaters: A quirky Q&A featuring directors? Josh? and? Benny Safdie? and the movies star,? Adam Sandler. Image via A24 A24 released a trailer heralding the return of? Uncut Gems? to theaters on Saturday, February 8, and Sunday, February 9. The trailer is not the original? Uncut Gems? trailer but is, instead, a quick preview of the Safdies Brothers setting up how their Q&A with Sandler will work. Josh does most of the narration while Benny sits next to him. Josh explains they will be doing a? Candid Camera -ish kind of Q&A where Sandler believes hes just sitting down with the director bros for some diner coffee but will, in fact, be asked questions about the movie. We even get a look at how that will happen as a waitress asks the Safdies about the titular gems and? Jason Bateman? comes over to their table to have a chat. Its unclear whether there will be any other celeb cameos during the unconventional Q&A (fingers crossed we get a? Kevin Garnett? appearance, though) so I guess youll just have to hustle on over to a theater this weekend to watch it in full after you watch the Sandman try to beat the buzzer before all those bad bets go bust. Uncut Gems ?with the Safdie brothers Q&A ? is back in theaters this weekend. Get local listings and theater locations here. Also, be sure to watch the Safdies second collab with Sandler, the short film Goldman v Silverman.?Check out the incredible and perfect trailer for the? Uncut Gems Q&A Experience below: Heres a refresher on the official? Uncut Gems? synopsis, just in case: From acclaimed filmmakers Josh and Benny Safdie comes an electrifying crime thriller about Howard Ratner (Adam Sandler) a charismatic New York City jeweler always on the lookout for the next big score. When he makes a series of high-stakes bets that could lead to the windfall of a lifetime, Howard must perform a precarious high-wire act, balancing business, family, and encroaching adversaries on all sides, in his relentless pursuit of the ultimate win.

Joias brutal. Adam Sandler is Hollywoods biggest contradiction. Though ?his comedies range from pretty good ( Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore) to god-awful ( Grown Ups, Jack and Jill) they have amassed more than 3 billion at the box office. The SNL -alum-turned-production-tycoon got rich by repeating himself. See (or dont) his Netflix hit Murder Mystery ? its comic laziness incarnate. And then theres the other Adam Sandler, the actor who makes fools of his detractors. In the annals of the Golden Raspberrys ? think the Oscars but for gross cinematic incompetence ? only Sly Stallone has more wins than Sandlers nine. But what about the guy who had critics raving in Paul Thomas Andersons Punch-Drunk Love (2002) Or the performer who went above and beyond the call of duty in James L. Brooks Spanglish (2004) Judd Apatows Funny People (2009) and especially Noah Baumbachs The Meyerowitz Stories (2017) Oscar voters pretend not to see that Sandlers a clown who can, almost by an act of will, stand toe-to-toe with the best weve got. Shame on them if they snub the performance that the actor delivers in Uncut Gems, a potent study of a man coming unglued that plays like a white-knuckle thriller. Sandler is Howard Ratner, a jewelry-store owner in New Yorks Diamond District circa 2012 who runs his business like a gambling junkie, thriving on the rush and hot for a new score that might lose him everything. And the deeper Howard goes, the louder Sandlers howling, adrenalized roar builds. He could not have found better collaborators than the Safdie brothers, Josh and Benny, sibling directors who are incendiary talents. Their four previous indie features (notably 2017s Good Time, with Robert Pattinson) have prepped them for their most personal film yet. As Syrian Jews whose father worked in the Diamond District, the Safdies feel this movie in their bones, casting nonactors off those streets to work with the pros in order to achieve raw, riveting authenticity. Sandler catches that vibe and runs with it, as Howard is pushed up against walls and into tight corners. The breakneck script that the Safdies wrote with Ronald Bronstein believes in defaulting to shouts when theres something to say. Shot on the move by the superb veteran cinematographer Darius Khondji ( Seven, Midnight in Paris, The Immigrant) and scored by Daniel Lopatin, Uncut Gems does not let up. Every second in this movie pops, starting with opening on a black opal being mined in Ethiopia (social criticism intended) and working its way to Howards store. The stone, which is said to be worth a million, should be Howards way out of a debt he owes to his brother-in-law Arno (Eric Bogosian) a nasty sleaze not given to family loyalty. Neither is Howards about-to-be ex-wife, Dinah (Idina Menzel) whose irritations extend to Julia (dynamite newcomer Julia Fox) the store clerk Howard is screwing around with on the side. You think his day job is hectic? Try taking a look at his personal life. For Howard, however, the opal is not a solution but a means to an end. The minute his pal Demany (LaKeith Stanfield) shows up at the store with then-active Boston Celtics star Kevin Garnett (in a killer spin on himself) Howard agrees to lend him the gem as a good-luck charm. Why? Because Howard ?thinks itll give a karmic edge to the Celtics game hes betting on. This leads to the films extended climax, a sequence of such profound, palm-sweating tension that you may have to catch your breath. Weve already watched Howard take his lumps when debt collectors beat him senseless, took his clothes, and locked him in the trunk of a car parked outside his daughters school. But thats nothing compared to the crisis in Howards store when he barricades Arno ?and his henchman Phil (a truly scary Keith Williams Richards) in the stores glassed-in security enclosure in full view of Howard, now glued to the TV, doing a ?frenzied play-by-play of the hoops game that can save his life or end it. Howard is a beast of a role, and the Safdies spotlight Sandler meeting every challenge.
Joias brunasse. So much overhyped!Adam Sandler is good in some film. Joias brutale. Uncut Gems opens in wide release Dec. 25. You never know when Adam Sandler is going to emerge from lowbrow comedies set in tropical locales to really, really make something. But when he does, he sure collaborates with some fascinating artists. From Paul Thomas Anderson to Noah Baumbach to, now, Josh and Benny Safdie, directing brothers who have slowly but surely emerged into the larger cinematic conversation by making small but very effective, stylish films about what many would consider “real New Yorkers, ” when Sandler gets serious, he also gets experimental. Just as the Safdies last film, Good Time, gave rise to career-best work from Robert Pattinson, Uncut Gems shows us an Adam Sandler weve never seen before. While most of the Billy Madison stars serious roles have been about more meek men, his character here, Howard Ratner, a Jewish jewelry store owner in Midtown Manhattan with a gambling addiction, exudes nothing but confidence. His fatal flaw is putting trust in others to do as they say theyre going to do when it comes to precious jewels, as well as relying on luck and intuition to fill in his blanks when they dont. Howard is a person desperate to live independently, he just needs to call in a few favors to do so. Sandlers big, loud take on Howard is perfect for the fast nature of New Yorks jewel trading culture, but its also deceptive, as a number of blink-and-youll-miss-‘em moments and glances mine the characters humanity for all its worth. The fact that Sandler is willing and entirely capable of going deep into Howards soul breathes life into the chaos of the films style. Watch the trailer for Uncut Gems below: The Safdie brothers continue to hone that here, employing rapid cuts, intense close-ups, harsh lighting, loads of neon, and a moody synth score to create a hectic, anxiety-inducing mood that assaults the senses until the films resolution. Theres a gorgeous grunge to the film reminiscent of 1970s Martin Scorsese, who fittingly serves as executive producer, as Uncut Gems winds up being a small-scale crime saga unafraid to dish out harsh realities, albeit with just enough heart. Its an aggressive film, visually and spiritually, though one with characters better off than most of the Safdies other leads. More money onscreen and off gives them more room to play as artists, but there is just a hint of extra grime from Good Time or even indie gem Heaven Knows What that its hard not to miss. Even so, this film does virtually no harm to their growing and genuinely deserved auteur status. The actual plot of the film revolves around Howard trying to get back a precious gem he bought from Ethiopian miners after he loans it to basketball star Kevin Garnett (who does a hilariously kooky riff on himself in an unusually sizable role. Uncut Gems slowly peels back the layers on just how many places Howard has money, as well as all the places he owes it, which lets the film unravel into a chaos of sad, unhealthy promises we can tell arent going to be fulfilled. Aside from Garnett, the rest of the supporting cast is strong as well. Idina Menzel, as Howards soon-to-be ex-wife, and Lakeith Stanfield, as the middle-man between Howard and Garnett, particularly stand out, as well as Eric Bogosian as one of the many people Howard owes money to, but with a unique emotional tie to him. Top 10 Adam Sandler Movies The way the script evolves this story is shockingly cohesive, considering just about every scene has 10 conversations happening at once. The chaos of the content and the style does, however, make it take a while before we can get invested in Howard, so the first act and part of the second feel a bit like an emotional plateau. But in that period, its easy to just marvel at Sandlers performance and all the different elements the Safdies are juggling at once. Most importantly, by the time we reach the insane third act, as tensions mount and characters take actions they cannot take back, we do come to really care for Howard. The ending packs an emotional wallop, but is entirely satisfying and serves the characters right. Uncut Gems is ultimately a story about how you cant trade good luck for goodwill, a lesson not every character learns by the end, and they suffer for it. But like a rare stone, films that combine down-to-Earth stakes and genuine emotional investment are hard to come by. The Safdie brothers have made another rough film, but once again theres a diamond at the center of it. Verdict The Safdie brothers continue their winning streak of making harshly real films about everyday New Yorkers with fatal flaws. But this time, theyve also given Adam Sandler a platform to show just how good he is with the right collaborators. The results are as stylish as they are affecting.
