Cinematic Mode – Digger sees Tom Cruise digging for farce
Alejandro G. Iñárritu's "Digger" stars Tom Cruise in prosthetic makeup as an oil baron whose company causes an environmental disaster. The film is a satirical black comedy that draws comparisons to "Dr. Strangelove" and "Triangle of Sadness," but suffers from inconsistent humor and a lack of biting commentary. Despite its flaws, "Digger" is considered a conversation starter and a bold artistic swing.
