My Review of UNCUT GEMS (2019)

If art really should "comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable”, then this filthy, frantic story is pretty much a twisted masterpiece. It's funny that people often decide that they hate Uncut Gems because yes, it's anxiety-inducing, dirty, and there's not really any character you can root for in good conscience, but those facts themselves are what make it so unique and so intense. I wish every movie could transcend visuals and make me feel everything like this one did.
