Critics Consensus

A stylized satire whose audacious design proves too mannered for some of the laughs to smoothly land, Digger is a bold swing of the shovel by Tom Cruise and Alejandro González Iñárritu that misses as often as it strikes gold.

This, Digger, is an indulgence. A grand and, I have to say insufferably up itself, look-at-me folly.

Cruise has played arrogant bastards before, but this is one of his better turns, right up there with those in Tropic Thunder and Magnolia.

Sure, not everyone will dig it. But as a Hollywood-star project, its existence is fascinating.

...perhaps Digger needed more ambition and less clarity, not the other way around. The film's central point is one worth revisiting: the planet is screwed, and cinema is far from the best solution, yet we still keep making movies. [Full review in Spanish]

Tom Cruise is fundamental as the protagonist and becomes a true force of nature, brimming with emotion and gestures, finding a very precise comedic timing that also appears in his interactions with the rest of the cast. [Full review in Spanish]

What hurts “Digger” is the blatant nature by Iñárritu to pamper an audience. It is one of the most insulting movies of the year.
