Preview, Adam Sandler is the bad seed brother/gambler among Diamond District Jews in “Uncut Gems”

Posted on September 24, 2019 by Roger Moore

It’s a gambler-on-a-bender thriller with the Sand-man entangling his family and the family business in his “problem.”

This Safdie Brothers tale co-stars Idina Menzel and The Wkend and…Kevin Garnett?

It made a splash at Toronto and opens Dec. 25.

I’m sorry, if A24 is going to start releasing Adam Sandler thrillers I am going to have to rethink my entire world view. Or Sandler. Or A24.

    Woah! Sandler in a thriller? This trailer looks promising … although must admit some sense of suspicion that he won’t (be able to) keep it serious. He’s done other serious roles with very mixed results though, so who knows.
