Um filme de alta energia sobre a procura de dinheiro, também com o objetivo de sair duma má situação (dívida). O filme é original especialmente com a banda sonora eletrónica como se fosse de Vangelis, a tentar imitar Atticus Ross em êxtase. Na abertura mais longa, onde a música soa tão alto como o diálogo, distrai literalmente. Parece uma banda sonora imperfeita, até que sente a necessidade de agarrar o controlador e reparar algo. Uma forma tosca de envolver e atrair o espetador. Depois, com uma utilização mais sensível, a banda sonora torna-se um elemento significativo da experiência cinematográfica distintiva. E é isso que também o cenário e os seus personagens fazem. Os heróis do filme da dupla dos diretores não são anjos; têm todas as falhas de carácter (traem esposas e parceiros de negócios, sofrem da ganância impiedosa). Ainda assim, cruzamos os dedos por este, porque no mundo da usura e da extorsão em que opera, não podia funcionar de outra forma. A representação honesta deste mundo, e, ainda por cima, na comunidade judaica, torna o filme único e os seus realizadores corajosos.

Neo-noir Woody Allen on cocaine laced with synthetics. Loud-mouthed, too tense, hypnotic, mumbling, repulsive, soiled, slimy and truly (I really mean truly) intense. It cannot be recommended anyone. Compared to Uncut Gems, Good Time would be a viewer-friendly film. This time, the Safdis provoke on purpose. You will either hate or admire them from the bottom of your heart, but you will hardly say “hmm, a nice average movie that I will not remember tomorrow “. You will remember. It is only a question of whether you will spit in disgust or nod appreciatively while recalling it.

A treat for the connoisseur. Bursting with energy, like a roller coaster ride, extremely immersive, with a hypnotic soundtrack. The vast majority of today's mainstream cinema has been boring me for the last few years because it's so predictable and formulaic in its approach, so I’m grateful for any film that manages to surprise, goes its own way, and yet is so different, distinctive, and doesn't care that only a small group of viewers will appreciate it. Safdie Bros, thank you so much! I thought I'd never see anything like this in today's deluge of Marvel and comic book crap. And Sandler, as much as I don’t like him, was fantastic here.

The best directorial feat by the Safdie brothers and the best serious role by Adam Sandler, who fits the part like a glove. It's a very whiny film without any positive characters. Sandler owed perhaps everything he looked at and I thoroughly enjoyed his crazy gamble. Julia Fox was also great to watch, she is an unknown actress to me, but I was wiping saliva off the table during the garter scene. The finale is intense and unexpected. I enjoyed it. PS: the scene with The Weeknd was fun.8/10.

Adam Sandler in a serious role? Let’s see this! Uncut Gems is the next film from his Netflix series, the first with a non-comedy theme. However, his character here is unpleasant and noisy, just like the film itself. Moreover, it contains an unusual soundtrack, which is also not exactly melodious, adding to the overall gloominess of the film. The first hour, I didn’t really know what to think, but the tension was so high I thought I was going to explode like a pressure pot. Although I didn’t like Sandler’s character, I have to respect his performance. It was an acting feast, albeit one with a psychedelic musical background.
