Season 1, Episode 9 - Uncut Gems Parking Lot Critiques

This week on Parking Lot Critiques, Jeffrey and Andy discuss Josh and Benny Safdie's Uncut Gems, starring Adam Sandler, Lakeith Stanfield, Julia Fox, and Kevin Garnett. The hosts provide a thorough commentary on the film's innumerable ups and downs, discussing its honest subversion and offering diverging perspectives on a central question: is its protagonist at all likable or sympathetic? Either way, Uncut Gems is an immersive, thrilling, and challenging experience, hallmarked by what is arguably the greatest performance of Adam Sandler's career.
