Digger

I got early access to this movie and this movie was absolute banger i don't care what people say this is one of the best Tom cruise movies ever Absolute Cinema🙌🏻

Some movies seem destined for mixed reactions. That may be somewhat apparent before their release, but it invariably surfaces once in distribution. And it would seem to be very much the case with the latest and long-awaited release from writer-director Alejandro G. Iñárritu, a project that has been heavily promoted for some time. To complicate matters, “Digger” is a film that could easily fall prey to spoilers if too much is revealed in advance (a point decisively driven home in a caution posted on screen before the picture’s start at press previews), so I apologize in advance if this analysis…

Check out my full review @ https://www.manuelsbento.com/digger-2026-tom-cruise-and-alejandro-g-inarritu-make-noise-worth-arguing-about/ Rating: B DIGGER hammers its numerous capitalistic themes with zero subtlety, and yes, it's loud, repetitive, and not as funny as the comedy of catastrophic proportions it thinks it is. But I quite enjoyed riding this crazy rollercoaster of a movie. Tom Cruise's over-the-top performance is purposefully captivating, Riz Ahmed is the supporting standout, and the VistaVision cinematography and production design are at an award-worthy level of stunning. Its …

"Digger" (Tom Cruise) is an oil gazzillionaire who cares little for safety or the environment as he determines to milk the planet of as many of it's resources as he can before someone tells him to stop. It's his multi-billion dollar operation in the Arctic that is causing consternation after a massive methane explosion releases a part of the ice shelf and sets it en-route to the low countries of Europe where catastrophe looms. Quickly in cahoots with the president (John Goodman) and finally having to listen to the only scientist in his otherwise acolytic empire prepared to deliver some home tr…

*May Contain Spoilers:* I *think* love Digger. It’s a beautiful, but bleak film. One which you only truly understand after letting it sit for a few days. As I have done. From the very beginning, Iñárritu does the unthinkable - daring you to dislike it. The sound design, cinematography, make-up - all stunning, but deeply uncomfortable. These first 30 mins are both exciting, and daunting; rattling by with little time for pause. Not giving us the chance to breathe. Then, just as we begin to settle into the chaos of it all… Iñárritu dares us once again - to sit through the most biza…

One of the greatest films ive ever had the pleasure of watching.. The marketing for this movie was a little subpar, went in not knowing really what to expect but I had heard nothing but good things about it. I was definitely NOT disappointed. The underlying and overlaying meaning of the film was so incredibly deep it had me rethinking life as it played "Level 4" followed by altered sounds of nature animals as the credits roll. It felt surreal to walk out of that theatre. This film couldnt have been made at any better of a time for politics and global uncertainties. I mean we literally watched …

A very interesting film and certainly not deserving of negativity critics have heaped on it. Tom Cruise is wonderful here and while the film may not be for everyone, its certainly worth a watch.

*Digger* is brilliant when it comes to its artistry, craftsmanship, and powerfully magnetic performances, with a particularly whirlwind on-screen presence from Tom Cruise. But it is purposely disjointed and awkwardly paced, resulting in the film feeling magnificently dull despite all of its bells and whistles. It is heartbreaking to say that *Digger* isn’t worth the braggadocious journey. https://bit.ly/DigIt26
