The TVI Take
A New York jeweler spirals through increasingly desperate situations while trying to settle a debt. The Safdie Brothers' formally exhausting thriller.
Exceptional craft — the sound design alone is extraordinary. Adam Sandler's performance is genuinely exceptional. Cognitive engagement from the sustained, escalating tension.
