Haven't seen Uncut Gems since it has yet to come to my country, but I really loved his performance on The Meyorowitz Stories, pretty underrated movie.

sandler has figured out a way to hang out with his friends and get paid for it. most of the time the movies are just the byproduct and I actually respect that. every 10 years or so he actually tries, the rest of the time he's just hanging out with cameras rolling.

It is , the mix of the zany humor, the all great actors, even tarentino, my favourite cameo of his, and its sweet, but also celebrates metal. Its underrated if anyone has any love for fun bmovies. I think it is a great bmovie. And sandler, surprising good heart of the story. Its my favourite. And THE metal cult movie. But overall, good balance of all zany things that shouldnt work as well as they do, but do. Great writing. I mean the sheer love and humorous fanservice like ozzy osbourne eating a bat head off a bat(based on a real event) for metal mixed with the humor and it works. Indeed underrated.

He does far-fetched comedies, so acting is not the priority.

Uncut gems is perfect for him. He’s an underdog who can snap at any moment. He’s in a love affair with his mistress in which he presents some romantic comedy elements. Plus he’s a rich dad who is able to crack jokes at his surroundings. And then at the complexity and he can really go for it. Absolutely perfect casting

I grew up watching Sandler. He's part of the 2nd great wave of SNL. I love pretty much everything he's done. Mostly because he's an everyman type of comedian. Each of his roles encompasses some aspect of trying to grow up and figure things out while trying to stay grounded. You have roles like happy Gilmore or Billy Madison where you're just starting out and trying to figure out what you want to do with your life. There's movies like grown ups where you're trying to balance work and family and not lose your damn mind. All of it is just really relatable.

I feel like the reason he is so successful is because EVERYBODY likes like half of his movies no matter who you are. Obviously they intertwine because for example I liked Murder Mystery and Happy Gilmore but not Click and Uncut Gems. That is what makes him great though, we never know if we will like the movie or not, but we do know he is a solid actor in ALL of his movies.

This was an excellent deep-dive. I'm going to go watch some of Sandler's "outlier" stuff now.

As someone that grew up loving his early movies, after watching Uncut Gems i thought it was for sure his best movie. Great video dude

Honestly he surprised me in uncut gems because I’ve never seen him in a “serious” movie, it’s always comedic, I really wish he would have done more movies like uncut gems (drama) instead of his older movies that were mentioned in this video, I was always annoyed in movies where he did a baby voice or overly aggressive. Nonetheless, I think he’s a great actor, maybe just not in the best movies.

I freakin love that movie lol! Idk why Sandler never made more animated movies tho! Animation opens up so much more ridiculous shit to happen like in 8 Crazy Nights and can compliment Sandler's humor so we'll!

I love your career focused pieces too! Do Jennnifer Lawrence next please.

Just watched uncut gems for the first time last night and wow. What an absolute masterpiece

@@Gemnist98 ah okay. We are aware that the opinion that Adam Sandler is indeed capable of being a great actor and that this notion isn't exactly new? He has a tendency to pick roles that are just easy and require no effort on his part and just plain suck to be honest. He's still capable.

I've always held a candle for Sandler (even through the shitty films he's made) his manic energy just keeps me coming back. Great video!

Grownups 1 had a little bit of a nostalgia hit for me because of its shooting locations with Woodmans and at Centennial Grove. Spent a few summers at that dinky little clay filled beach just down the hill from that basketball court, which wasn't there when I lived in Essex. I will say though that that friggin 1920's fire engine has been in every single town parade that I remember.

He gave us Happy Gilmore!

You didn’t even mention his greatest movie: That’s My Boy

Agreed! You don't even need to watch that movie to enjoy it, just listening to it will make you laugh nonstop. WAAAAAAZZZZUUUUUPPP!!

Adam Sandler kicks ass. almost every actor/ actress that's been in his movies has been in them since the jump. that's realness in plain sight.

I love many of his movies. Big Daddy, Anger Management, 50 First Dates and Don't Mess With The Zohan are my favorites. He has been in so many films, there's a lot that's not even mentioned here. I also love the thing how old ladies always have crushes on him, it's one of those Sandler things 🤣

50 First Dates, Happy Gilmore and Blended are my personal favourites nostalgia definitely plays a role but I still love them

Me too, I really wish @captainmidnight had mentioned it. The Cobbler is a really interesting and unique concept. It was one of the first serious roles I saw Sandler in and I wish it was better known

Sandler is so good when he's punching upwards. When he's coming from a disadvantage, he excels. It works if it's comedy or drama. We liked Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, and Waterboy because his character was in a constant state of having to prove himself worthy to a world that's laughing at him. Hell that's how his stand-up comedy worked. His drama works when he has something about himself that he's fighting against, not just an enemy. Confident Sandler does not work. Insecure Sandler can be brilliant.

Growing up, i always had funny crazy uncles, and watching these kinda comedy movies was a treat to me being babysat, Little Nicky was the first movie i remember ordering ppv on satellite , and it was a good memory lmao

1:35 Lincoln was watching a slob vs. snobs comedy when he was assassinated. The play Our American Cousin was incredibly popular in its time.

what about “Bedtime Stories” tho

I like that his movies just seem like him and his friends having a good time

I grew up watching Adam Sandler’s movies so I think I’m a bit biased but I loved all his movies. Maybe it’s nostalgia speaking but I thought he was really funny. My favorite is Anger Management!

Punch Drunk Love/Ridiculous 6 and a few others I’ve never seen and forgotten about. Now funny people is actually one of my favorite flicks. There’s something great about it to me.

The Longest Yard is my favorite movie from him

Ok but bruh, your voice is soothing as hell 🤙🏻

You know, Idk if it's because I'm latina but I actually love Spanglish. I think is an amazing movie, tackling a subject so common in my life that often surprises me that people doesn't appreciate it more. And, of course, I love Sandler's role in it.

Where’s big daddy? cause that shit made me cry 😭

Men, Women & Children is a criminally underrated movie in which he also gives a surprisingly good performance.

He’s my favorite I’ve seen him perform live and the way he controls the room he is awesome

Bedtime Stories is one of my favs, underrated movie

*Seeing a new Rich Dad trailer as a Sandman-defender* SOMEBODY KILL ME PLEEASE, IM ON MY KNEES, PRETTY PRETTY PLEASE

Bedtime Stories is still a guilty pleasure of mine. Plus I think The Cobbler is a very underrated movie.

Adam Sandler has made movies of him basically on vacation and made millions of dollars doing so. I don’t think anyone can truly critique this man.

You can’t forget about one of my favorite Adam Sandler movies Anger Management.

not even a mention of I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry ? it is one of my favorites.

i loved grown ups when i was 12 but i rewatched it and i genuinely don’t understand how i sat through it

My favourite films of his are: Punch Drunk Love, Happy Gilmore, Billy Madison, Funny People, Big Daddy, The Waterboy But my favourite performance of him has to be as Howard from Uncut Gems- he was amazing in it!
