Turned it off after 45 minutes

Exactly, not much of an Oscar blogger if he can't power through a movie. What other movies has he shut off?

I disagree. It really was terrible.

Excuse me? I am a real Oscar blogger. In fact, I won a huge Oscar contest in 2019 when I got Green Book right for best picture and no one else did. Also shouldn't you be social distancing, and washing your hands? Don't waste time talking about my work efforts. Worry about your own work- if you have any left. With this virus, 90% of American jobs will be gone by the end of 2020. Luckily I still have a job, because movies aren't going anywhere.

Okay:

Sandler spends the rest of the movie flailing around trying to get an "out". His prize gem is re-priced at the auction, to his fury. He convinces a family member to bid and drive the basketball player into paying the original asking price. The family member bids, wins the gem, and is angry with Sandler (who vows to pay him back).

Sandler keeps digging himself in deeper and deeper, getting more and more desperate, with debtors barking at his door all the time. Sandler gets the basketball player to buy the gem at a worse price. It's just enough to cover his debt with the guys who want to kill him. They come looking for it and accidentally get trapped in the little security kiosk. Sandler sneaks the money out the back (his girlfriend mules it) and gives her specific instructions as to how to bet it.

She takes it to a casino and bets the cash as Sandler says. Sandler and the (trapped) gangsters watch the Celtics game on TV, the basketball player thinking the opal is good luck. Every shot, miss, basket, foul, etc., reverberates through the shop until...

...Celtics win. The bet is covered. Sandler won TONNES of money. Celebrating, he lets the goons out of the cage, but one of the gangsters is ticked off and blows Sandler's head off. One of the other gangsters freaks out and the first guy shoots his buddy.

Sandler's girlfriend gets out of the casino with the MASSIVE amount of loot while the remaining two gangsters loot the store. The police are on the way...

I really loved the movie. I thought it was tension-filled, tightly-scripted, and well-performed. Sandler is a great actor when he wants to be, and he wants to be here. I liked the character dynamics, and this story of a guy who doesn't know when to quit or what's good for him. It was uncomfortable to watch, I think the character's an idiot, but it hit that golden quality of good stories (for me): I always wanted to know what was happening next.
