Review of Uncut Gems

Uncut Gems (2019)
2/10
Stressful waste of time
4 July 2020
The most grating, stressful and unenlightening film I've ever watched. There was nothing inspired or new about it. A majority of the film was a shouting match littered with cusses and disjointed conflict. No real character or story development. The score was completely and totally mismatched for this movie and more befitting to a blade-runner sequel. The visual effects were long winded and confusing and interrupted what little story pacing there was.

I kept watching hoping for some sort of redemption that would make the film worth it or live up to positive reviews that I had heard but it came up short.

Only good thing I can think to say is Sandler and ensemble did a fine job with a jumbled mess of a script and gave pretty solid performances; nothing groundbreaking.

I don't recommend watching, overall a waste of time.
