(Spoiler) Just watched Digger.
It is worth watching, to the point where I feel bad that it isn't performing better at the box office.
While the director's direction is good, Tom Cruise's passionate performance really stands out.
Since it is set on a theater stage, there are a few moments where the immersion breaks slightly.
However, considering the final twist(?), the story progression is quite smooth and the plot is not difficult to follow.
Since it is a story made by a Mexican director, it has a bit of a "spicy" edge, including some anti-Christian scenes that might feel off-putting to Americans.
It is a film where Tom poured his heart and soul into it, enough to make you understand why he came all the way to Korea despite the low box office numbers.
If you are a fan of Tom, I recommend seeing it in the theater before this holiday ends.
There are few screens available and it has been pushed to small-scale theaters, and even those might be hard to find after this weekend.
