Uncut Gems is an extremely over-rated mess. Yes - it is true that Sandler did a decent job playing a very unlikeable character that was very different than any character he normally plays. The problem is the story is an annoying mess and so are all the characters. The story goes nowhere and is over-long. Everyone is annoying to hear. No one is likable. I could not give a damn about anyone in the show. The ending was surprising, but stupid. Not worth my two hours. Even if it was just killing time on an airplane.
