This jolt of pure cinematic adrenaline affirmed directors Josh and
Benny Safdie as heirs to the gritty, heightened realism of Martin
Scorsese and John Cassavetes. Adam Sandler delivers an almost maniacally
embodied performance as Howard Ratner, a fast-talking New York jeweler
and gambler in relentless pursuit of the next big score. When he comes
into possession of a rare opal, it seems Howard’s ship has finally come
in—as long as he can stay one step ahead of a wife (Idina Menzel) who
hates him, a mistress (Julia Fox) who can’t quit him, and a frenzy of
loan sharks and hit men closing in on him. Wrapping a vivid look at the
old-school Jewish world of Manhattan’s Diamond District within a kinetic
thriller, Uncut Gems gives us one of the great characters in
modern cinema: a tragic hero of competing compulsions on a
shoot-the-moon quest to transcend his destiny.
