LIONSGATE

UNCUT GEMS



Street Date: 3/10/20

Blu-ray™ + DVD + Digital SRP: $39.99

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

Adam Sandler gives “a mythologically great performance” (Robbie Collin, The Telegraph) in a critically-acclaimed thriller when Uncut Gems arrives on Digital February 25 from A24 and on Blu-ray™ Combo Pack (plus DVD and Digital) and DVD March 10 from Lionsgate. Co-written and directed by brothers Josh and Benny Safdie (writers and directors of Good Time), the film played at both the Telluride Film Festival and the Toronto International Film Festival to rave reviews and is Certified Fresh™ on Rotten Tomatoes. Uncut Gems stars Golden Globe® nominee Adam Sandler (2003, Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture – Comedy or Musical, Punch-Drunk Love), LaKeith Stanfield, Kevin Garnett, Idina Menzel, Eric Bogosian, and Academy Award® nominee Judd Hirsch (1981, Best Actor in a Supportin\g Role, Ordinary People). Executive produced by Martin Scorsese, the Uncut Gems Blu-ray Combo Pack and DVD will be available for the suggested retail price of $39.99 and $29.95, respectively.



OFFICIAL SYNOPSIS

A charismatic jeweler (Adam Sandler) makes a high-stakes bet that could lead to the windfall of a lifetime. In a precarious high-wire act, he must balance business and family, fending off adversaries on all sides in pursuit of the ultimate win.



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?

This was probably going to be a rental for me anyway. A little surprised Lionsgate isn't doing a 4K version, though.

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.

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.

Ah, the one place I forgot to check.

So there's another option for UHD, but it sucks for someone like me who uses Vudu primarily.
