**Digger**, the Alejandro G. Iñárritu-directed satirical black comedy starring Tom Cruise as an oil tycoon racing to avert a self-inflicted climate catastrophe, opened in theaters on October 2, 2026, to sharply divided reviews. The Tomatometer currently sits at 50% from over 220 critics, reflecting praise for the film’s bold, stylized ambition and Cruise’s committed, over-the-top turn alongside criticism that the satire feels mannered, smug, and uneven. This marks Cruise’s first certified “rotten” film in nine years, ending a strong run of critical successes. With the score still incorporating new reviews and audience metrics emerging, traders are watching for any late shifts driven by word-of-mouth or additional critic entries.
