Uncut Gems movie review - Breakfast All Day

[@Mic-Mak]

My sincere condolences to Ben for losing his mom. Hope he's surrounded by love.

[@cjwright79]

virtue signal!

@@cjwright79 ???? REALLY?!

[@EntropyAcolyte]

i'll give it to you guys, the audio effects are never the same

[@cjwright79]

echo-ey walls, maybe tile flooring bouncing around the sound waves

[@danielhackmn]

Holy reverb. Great review!

[@brajeshsingh2391]

This is really a great movie. I mean this is one of those movies which you just cannot review. Absolutely edge of the seat thriller where even small events are so superbly depicted that you are compelled to pay attention. And its like one continuous so all of them are perfectly connected. I just could not take my eyes off the screen and its 2 hrs long. And the technical values are so great . Right from the set to the costume design, give you a very immersive experience. Like you are in the action. So does the cinematography using the close shots gives you the reaction of every character . And the acting is so top notch. Sandler plays the character constantly on the edge and he brilliantly supported by rest of the cast. Like all of them feel so genuine and real. Everybody from Julia Fox to Lakeith Stanfield to Kevin Garnett to Wayne Diamond playing the eccentric helicopter pilot. I mean they are so eccentric but feel so real. Take a bow Adam and the rest of cast and crew. Uncut gems is really a gem. I give this an 8. This ought to have been nominated for Best Picture, Best Screen and probably Director. Not so sure about Sandler but this is great effort from the cast in entirety. Academy for ignoring this is very disappointing.

[@BreakfastAllDay]

Glad you loved it too!

[@CBlade0]

You guys are my go-tos for creative and well-balanced reviews across a variety of personalities and tastes. I love that you guys are back. Keep it up!!

[@AhBeeDoi]

The echoing in Christy's palatial Pacific Palisades pad!

[@cjwright79]

nice alliteration AhBee!

[@iansmart4158]

My favorite part of a review that the entire table likes is when Christy goes off about what the film means and her POV of like the overall point of the film, and the boys are casually all like, "Yeah, I could see that". Never not funny.

[@kylestyyle987]

Christy is smart af, she’s great at articulating the themes and filmmaking aspects of these movies

[@cjwright79]

glad you didn't go anywhere sexist with this! 😅

Close your eyes. Imagine where they're having this conversation.

[@phongthehun1721]

For those that dont know..this movie will be available on Netflix a month after the theater release..

[@musicmann1967]

I have Netflix, and of course I had no idea!! lol Thanks!

[@samcohen99]

Really?? In the USA? Why would A24 and theater chains agree to that?

[@mainchannel1566]

That's outside the U.S. In America it's a normal theatrical run (A24) because no one knows who the Safdie Brothers are outside America.

[@duvan.deschain]

@@mainchannel1566 We do, calm down. They just won't invest the distribution money because Disney is a juggernaut even if their films out are mediocre. Uncut Gems against Frozen and Star Wars during the Christmas season? Not very smart programming.

[@mainchannel1566]

@@duvan.deschain i didn't mean *literally* no one knows who the safdie brothers are. they're barely known in america outside indie circles, so giving them a wide release would probably mean a big loss. calm down.

[@jeremyslather]

Relax audio experts... Their review is what we came for.

[@chris6770]

You are so good at this, as anyone who knows your work already knows. This channel deserves far more subscribers, so please share.

[@moeezS]

Wow you guys are all back?! Since when did this happen? Uncut Gems is one Hella anxiety-inducing thrill ride, loved it, and can't wait for more to experience this chase film.

[@cjwright79]

may have to to go see this today, thanks to the glowing review! edit: okay, not showing anywhere in the city

[@piadox]

Love you Alonso for not having a clue about who Kevin Garnett is! 😂

[@ViralKiller]

I like the way they make you think the Opal is going to be worth $20million but it's actually 170k lol

[@kylestyyle987]

I watched this while high and couldn’t tell whether the reverb was a real effect haha

[@dugfriendly]

Going to see it today.

[@megamoviez]

Hope to get a screener of this soon as a voter of the Independent Spirit Awards

[@film79]

Yeah you should be getting them pretty soon.

[@brajeshsingh2391]

Christy said Adam Sandler is far better here than when he is playing a overgrown dufus kid on a vacation with Rob Schneider or whoever. Well that is true and perfectly put. Most Adam Sandler films are like that. A vacation where just for 2 hours you can shut off the complexities and sorrows of the world.

[@seancorrigan7448]

Thank you for this. Adam Sandler was incredible in this film.

[@RykComerford]

Cool microphones & stands, but there seems to be an echo effect.

[@cmckittrick91]

Julia Fox was a youtuber?

[@csjcsj2906]

That gem really gave me Sorcerer's/Philosopher's Stone vibes.

[@MrChaseBlue]

I would love for your reaction to Waves!

[@JozieLeePro]

Trailer looks great. I LOVE Adam Sandler, especially in a drama.

[@the_RCB_films]

Ya'll need to put this as a SPOILER review. LUL Like come on now. That being said, good review, and I agree with some of this.

[@moviedude22]

Ben would definitely be a welcomed addition on this one if not to flesh out the elements Matt & co. found somewhat perplexed by, Ben would certainly add a little journalistic integrity about the People Republic and their decades long crusade to gut Sub-Sahara of it natural resources metals,mineral, land etc. NY Times has even reported that the African subcontinent could be a sort surrogate nation for the Chinese, if and when climate change coupled with overpopulation and pollution reach their tipping point. I don't believe this is that movie, but I do wonder if the screen writers feel the need to include issue of ethics in the scrip? What with Blood diamonds being a thing and what not

[@Zstone38]

Not just coming to be an audio nerd, was a great review but the reverb was extremely distracting.

[@MLeeT21]

Soo many people walked out of the showing I was at

[@Gary-jh3wd]

Doesn't the film explicitly say the story begins 2010 not 2013?

[@razmaharjan6012]

audio is a bit weird.

[@sabotajj81]

reverb in the mic is disturbing actually

[@nydollarsign7771]

much love to Ben

[@msmit152]

Ending is very unsatisfying

[@BreakfastAllDay]

Sorry you didn't enjoy it.

[@msmit152]

​@@BreakfastAllDay It was entertaining, I just don't know how I feel about the ending.

[@shanshu73]

Adam Sandler is great . The movie isn't. I never felt the tention that they felt. I understood the addiction. The movie becomes repetitive and I didn't buy the goons in the movie.

[@EntropyAcolyte]

BUT i'm excited about about watching this movie

[@film79]

Not sure why you added the "BUT" at the beginning of your comment but I'm super hyped for this film too.

7.5/10. For me Good Times was way more anxiety inducing than Uncut Gems and was more tighter of a film.

[@musicfilmhead9051]

I disagree entirely. Good time is excellent, but uncut gems really brings the anxiety home for me. Everything was just cracked to 11 the whole way through. Plus the laughs really made it stick out more.

[@joed7185]

@@musicfilmhead9051 Uncut Gems was too inconsistent in pacing and I that was do to the running time, but that ending was great. What was your favorite film of '19?

Another Hollywood movie about how exciting gambling is? Peoples lives have been destroyed by the gambling addiction but Hollywood films keep portraying it as something exciting. There are people in Hollywood who clearly are attracted by the gambling fever.

[@thePANDEMlC]

lol if you think this movie paints gambling in a positive light you're delusional, watch the trailer, it's not shown in a good light, the complete opposite actually

[@TheBlobablob]

thePANDEMlC just watch the movie bro. His gambling addiction leads to his demise

[@iovino1219]

Movie was long and horrible. Did not care about any character. Just not good..

[@film79]

So yet another reason you should just read/listen to a review as not pay attention to the numbers, stars, tomatoes, thumbs, etc

[@mattjazzfan2288]

I wanted to love this movie, but I just couldn’t stand the constant yelling by almost every single unlikable character and the way they yelled over each other. I guess it tried to be realistic, but It was the most headache inducing thing I’ve ever heard. I did like the last 20 minutes though

[@HellSloth503]

🙄

[@JetteroHeller83]

The movie, Uncut Gems was shit. One of the worst movies of the year. I didn't like how they mixed the audio. Just wait for the Netflix release and watch it there. So many other good Netflix movies like marriage story, the report, Dolemite and Irishman.

[@michaelgibson2412]

Sorry. Love you guys BUNCHES; but I'm done giving Adam Sandler any of my time.

[@MMR7294]

This movie made me nauseous. I felt nothing for the characters. I didnt know that Arnold was Howard brother in law. Alot of the movie went no where. Just didnt get it.
