Just finished Uncut Gems, which is mentioned in this thread, and thought it was brilliant. Stressful, horrible, tragic, but brilliant. Sandler is unbelievable in it. The script on it's own could have still lead to a mess, but Sandler grounds even the most horrible tornado scenes with genuine humanity, a kind of self-loathing and toxic vulnerability. Oscar-worthy performance, really. He did win the Independent Spirit Award for Best actor and the National Society of Film Critics Award, along with a slew of other critics' awards that year. Not necessarily a consolation when he should have been up for an Oscar, but a lot of people recognized the power of the performance at least.

The Number 23
I like Jim Carrey - Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is one of my favourite films - but this is the only film I've walked out of the cinema half way through. Pure crap!

American Psycho. The David Beckham of movies. As a piece of art it has very little to say at all. People seem to like it though. Bless them. Let's see Walter Glass' card.

Apart from that, he's all right. Without him England don't make it to the 2002 world cup, got a killer pass and freekick. It's a team game.

The trailer was so promising. The movie was absolutely boring as could be.

A lot recent french comedies could be cited here, but lucky them, they're so shite they don't export internationally so I end up being the only one talking about them

Timecop, I like Jean Claude Van Dame but this film must be one of his worst ever. Terrible film.
