Multiple scenes I was thinking: okay, now we're kinda going to follow this movement somewhere to something meaningful, but it just cut to something else leaving the scene feeling fat. Two I can recall from memory: 1) Adam Sandler takes out the garbage...2) after the blow up at the club with The Weekend, Sandler gets in a cab and leaves and then we follow Julia Fox as she walks up the street to what I thought was going to be a follow up scene but it was not -- just watching her walk and call some club rats skanks. Idk, a multitude of this kinda of lingering lens had me bored and confused as to what these seemingly extended shots were supposed to communicate.

I've never been an Adam Sandler fan, but this film was recommended to me by my son, and since he knows good films when he sees them I gave it a chance. It's an amazing film! Sandler is incredible in the role, just reeling from one bad decision to the next, you just want him to slow down and get his life in order and it doesn't happen. I agree with Mark Kermode, he should have been nominated for an Oscar, he deserved it. See the film!!!!!

Wow Mark what a great review. Very interesting. Really enjoyed the film as well. Adam Sandler's character reminds me of a lot of people I knew growing up in so much as they bounce from one disaster to another-they always hold out for a win and believed that around the corner was the solution to their woes. Anyway great 5/5

Saw the movie this morning and it's the best film I've seen this "Oscar-season". And as per usual, Mr. Kemrode exactly describes my feelings and findings about the film in ways no one else manages to do. Great review of a powerhouse of a film.

Was this a review for Uncut Gems or Punch Drunk Love and Bad Lieutenant?? Seriously loved the movie though (and love Mark's reviews - and the points he made about Uncut Gems)

His Bad Lieutenant review has been way over due

Looks like Sandler finally did what Mark said and made a movie like Punch Drunk Love again.
