BLU-RAY / DVD SPECIAL FEATURES
- “Money on the Street: The Making of Uncut Gems” Featurette
No 4K disc. Just a BD for this one and only 1 featurette as an extra.
I enjoyed the movie, but have no interest in owning it. Not a lot of bang for your buck.

Yeah that is a pretty sad release. Wonder if it would have been better if the movie got the Oscar love it deserved. Or are they waiting for a Criterion Edition down the road?

Only 4 of A24’s films have gotten the Ultra HD Blu-ray nod, and the last of them was back in 2018. Maybe Lionsgate considers that a failed experiment.

Yea, A24 releases are sad. Some are only getting BD-R releases. Some were DVD only. It is a shame. They need to find a new home distributor.

Apparently it is getting a 4K digital release.

Re: Uncut Gems -- 3/10/20
It looks like it's only going to be 4K on Fandango Now and (probably) iTunes. Vudu and Google Play only show pre-orders for HD. This is the same thing that happened to several other A24 movies (The Disaster Artist, The Florida Project, Hereditary...). It's really annoying

Amazon has a digital UHD version listed. That’s where originally saw it.
