Digger: Digging Its Own Grave, Then Charging Admission
Alejandro G. Iñárritu’s Digger is an ambitious climate satire that uses absurdism and cynicism to attack billionaire greed, political failure, and cultural complacency. Its heavy-handed ideas and narrative excesses prevent greatness, but Tom Cruise’s committed performance and the film’s fearless weirdness make it a worthwhile experience.
