From acclaimed filmmakers Josh and Benny Safdie comes an electrifying crime thriller about Howard Ratner (Adam Sandler), a charismatic New York City jeweler always on the lookout for the next big score. When he makes a series of high-stakes bets that could lead to the windfall of a lifetime, Howard must perform a precarious high-wire act, balancing business, family, and encroaching adversaries on all sides, in his relentless pursuit of the ultimate win. Taking into account that it’s already listed on a whopping 94% rating on Rotten Tomatoes you can’t doubt that there is a lot to this one.

There’s seemingly a trend that’s recently started where we’re seeing comedians proving that they’re not one trick ponies and can in fact act, like really act in serious films and TV shows. We saw it with Mo’nique in Precious, Seth Rogan in Steve Jobs, Vince Vaughan in True Detective, Jason Bateman in Ozark, and much more. All blockbuster offerings and we for ones are definitely here for this trend. On the evidence of all the above, said to be his performance ever and set for an official release date of 13 December, Uncut Gems easily forms part of our must see movies before the year is up.

When an NYC cop (Adam Sandler) finally takes his wife (Jennifer Aniston) on a long promised European trip, a chance meeting on the flight gets them invited to an intimate family gathering on the Super Yacht of elderly billionaire Malcolm Quince. When Quince is murdered, they become the prime suspects in a modern day whodunit. MURDER MYSTERY reunites Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston along with an ensemble cast of global talent.

It’s obvious that the plot is predictable and one can also get a basic idea of how this will turn out. Despite that though it comes without saying that we are looking forward to it and the various laughs it’s going to offer. Murder Mystery hits out Netflix screens on 14 June.
