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 movie that is supposed to make us laugh during these dystopian and uncertain times, a play meant to make people laugh during dystopian and uncanny times. Not to mention the cinematography.. absolutely stunning. Everyone involved in the making of this masterpiece deserves an award every red carpet Hollywood event. Especially my actor of year nominee, Tom Cruise. He shined brighter then anyone ever thought he could in a role thats not just shooting bad guys and holding onto the side of military cargo planes. Bravo to you all. Go watch Digger.

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 final message, "compliance is freedom," stuck with me. We stay quiet to protect the lives we like, but what about everyone else's? Divisive? Of course, as any satire worth its salt should be! It gets everyone talking, and this one has, so job well done.
