REVIEW: It’s a very Sandler performance – intense, loud and big. But in a movie that is so far from a typical Sandler movie.
The first type enjoys his broad comedies – the crasser the better, the more Kevin James and Rob Schneider on screen, the better. If Sandler is off in some sunny location, goofing around with his mates and calls it a movie, woo!The second type of Sandler fan is extremely selective. They think his early stand-up work is good, they might even cop to liking, a Paul Thomas Anderson movie from 2002.
Howard is a dealer in Manhattan’s diamond district, a man with a lot of complications in his life, all of which he’s brought on himself. A problem gambler being chased by his loan shark’s goons, he’s also juggling between a wife who’s about to leave him and a girlfriend whose apartment he’s paying for.
When the black opal, wrapped inside a fish, shows up, Howard is mesmerised by its beauty but also by how it’s going to get him out of debt. So, he probably shouldn’t agree, however reluctantly, to lend it out to legendary NBA player Kevin Garnett for good luck.Uncut Gems , but hopefully they’ll stick around because the propulsive thrills are so visceral, it’s an experience they won’t find in Grown Ups 3 .
