“Uncut Gems” is a thoroughly engrossing, hectic character study of a diamond/jewelry broker in New York City. The look and feel of this film is frantic and chaotic. It encapsulates the personality and life-style of the broker, Howard, whose life is literally held together by what-if’s, gambles and impetuous trades, even at the expense of familial relationships, and his own reputation. Truly, this film had me captivated in a tense and anxiety drenched fervor to see what would happen next. Adam Sandler is well-utilised in the film beyond his usual ranting bellows into a character that is believable and hard to look away from.
