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.

Practical Magic 2 fails to recapture the magic of its predecessor, largely undoing the character development from the first film to repeat Sally's arc. While the performances from Sandra Bullock, Nicole Kidman, and Joey King are strong, and the set and costume design successfully mimic the original's aesthetic, the sequel's reliance on dark magic and a rehashed plot results in an underwhelming experience. The film is currently in cinemas.
