Uncut Gems (Safdie Brothers, December 13, 2019) Movie • Page 13

definitely

 

Still thinking about this movie a lot. Has anyone rewatched it yet??

 

No need for this comment.

 

holy fuck I'm stressed out

one old couple walked out after like 30 mins lol

 

Seriously. Can we just talk about how good she was???

 

She was so damn good, especially seeing as how it was her first film. Really hope to see more of her in the future.

 

I was surprised how low her follower count was when I found her on IG! I suppose that's how I gauge fame in 2019 lol. She was tremendous though, i'd be surprised if she didn't get some real momentum after this.

 

for some reason the scene that got the most laughs out of me was after KG and crew left the jewelry store for the second time and Howard is leaving the office and Julia is coming down the hall and before she can even say anything Howard just points at her and gives her the firmest "NO" I've ever heard lmao

This was, uh, A LOT lol

 

Nah, my girlfriend agrees. "It was an exceptionally good butt."

 

"Im a Marine and have heard a few things"

 

I think the most "crass" thing said in this is "motherfuckin' cocksucker" so I don't know what that dude is on about

 

Hot damn was this tense! The scene where the jewelry shop door wouldn’t open was so friggin’ nerve-wracking!! Shoutout to Mohegan Sun making an appearance (I live close by).

After Funny People, which satirized Sandler’s choice for making dumb comedies, I was hoping he’d go after more roles with substance. It took a decade but he was terrific in this.

 

Also, according to Wiki, Natasha Lyonne has a voice cameo as a Celtics staff member

 

she's KG's manager that Howard threatens to sue on the phone

 

Meyerowitz Stories!

He also tried with The Cobbler which is a fascinating failure that no one watched

 

i really like the review (av club, i think) for that's my boy that begins with pointing out that funny people should've scared sandler off of making high-concept garbage, only to find out that since then he's continued putting out the same ol' shit to the point where he might as well have turned those exaggerated shitty films from FP into actual projects for him to star in

 

less than a year later, the director of that film would release a best picture winner, funny how that works out

 

Such a stressful movie and I fucking loved it.

 

I’m just going to tell people that this is a movie staring Adam Sandler and Kevin Garnett with no other context to trick them into seeing it.

 

This movie was a 2 hour panic attack in the best way.

 

Just say it’s a sequel to Don’t Mess With the Zohan

 

Random celebrities making cameos in Sandler films was always sort of his trademark. Shaq was in one of the Grown Ups movies. You can tell someone to see the Adam Sandler movie with Kevin Garnett and you aren't lying.
