Sandler is brilliant and compellingly watchable as a cringe-worthy compulsive gambler. He may seem like a befuddled buffoon at times but behind the seemingly external frenetic chaos at work, he's a man with a fast twitch brain, a cheating heart and a heart of gold inside. That's the thing: everything is external, everything is internal. You'll see what I mean when you watch this film. Uncut Gems is a relentless, thrill-your-senses, nonstop ride that never lets up. The best part is that you don't want it to let up. So buckle in kids, you'll be glad you did.
