"Digger" plants its feet, drives its shovel into the ground, and strikes oil. Go to Full Review

2.5/5
This is far from [Alejandro Iñárritu's] worst movie, but like all his work, it’s reliant on a handful of bold but vague ideas that are repeated rather than developed. Go to Full Review

2/5
For Iñárritu, the veil of critical silence is convenient. A lot of what is wrong with the movie lies on the other, underpowered side of it. Go to Full Review

4.5/5
This is grand opera cinema, overriding a bit of heavy handiness by darkly expounding a moral purpose and anchoring the proceedings around a great, Oscar worthy performance by Tom Cruise. Bucket up buttercups, this is a wild ride. Go to Full Review

3/5
The parts of Digger that work, work very well. Tom Cruise does Oscar level work but overall values audacity, ambition and theatrics over narrative clarity. Go to Full Review
Robert Denerstein Denerstein Unleashed 2 hrs ago
Digger suggests that if we remove the protective scrim of illusion, we’ll see the dark truth about who we are and where we’re headed. Fair enough, but Inarritu can’t seem to push beyond cartoonish caricature that fails to pierce the conscience. Go to Full Review
