Featured Blu-ray and DVD Review: Uncut Gems
March 10th, 2020
Is Uncut Gems busted Oscar-bait? It seems strange to describe an Adam Sandler movie as Oscar-bait, but the film was released by A24 and given their track record in the few short years they’ve been around, it is not unfair to say it was made to win Oscars. That didn’t happen. On the other hand, it did just get to $50 million before the weekend, which is amazing for a limited release. Is the film as good as its box office numbers? Did it deserve to find more success during Awards Season?
