Moviegoers are saying
Digger is a polarizing swing for the fences: admirers call it a 'total riot' and a 'masterpiece' packed with a one-take Cruise monologue and South Park-style satire of 'chest thumping powerful idiots,' while detractors find it 'slow,' 'boring,' and so over-the-top that one viewer's eyes 'rolled into parts of my head I've never seen before.' Most agree it's unlike anything else in theaters, and that's exactly what splits the room.

    I loved this brilliant movie. It’s smart and trippy and aggressive and funny and ambitious. It’s worth making the time see and decide for yourself what you make of it. For me? 10/10 🪏

    Fossil Fools was hackneyed 25 years ago when it was an independent minimalist production, and I can't even begin to express my misgivings with a Kenny Rockwell-funded larger-than-life mega-production where the overblown sets and special effects scream louder than the actors…

    Wild theatrical performances, wild filmmaking, I don’t understand why are cinephiles so divided over it. In the times where most films look and feel the same , talk about the most expected things , what must a great filmmaker do if not indulge . Love the indulgence , love…

    Crazy times call for crazy movies. Crazy times call for disaster movies that stop focusing solely on the catastrophe itself, and how we might somehow escape it, and start addressing just how screwed we really are. Crazy times call for movies that stop dwelling on our bad…

    Wow! what a bad, boring and dumb movie. I kept wanting to walk out i was so bored but was curious where it was going and how it is ends and it wasn't worth the wait. I was more entertained on the 2025 version of war of the worlds haha.

    Fabulous! I went in a little confused by the trailers. It’s one of those movies that really stays with you after it’s over. The cast was outstanding, and Tom Cruise was incredible!
