Star Cast: Tom Cruise, Riz Ahmed Director: Alejandro G Irritu Digger Movie Review Synopsis: DIGGER is the story of a man who causes historic environmental damage. Digger Rockwell (Tom Cruise) is a wealthy oil tycoon who ignores warnings about the environmental damage being caused by his deep-drilling offshore rigs in Greenland. One day, the inevitable happens an iceberg named Judy gets dislodged due to the drilling. Judy is five times the size of Washington DC, according to Dr Nirav Ganesh (Riz Ahmed), Digger's environmental scientist and key technical adviser. Moreover, the iceberg begins drifting rapidly towards Northern Europe, threatening catastrophic tidal waves, widespread devastation and a global environmental chain reaction. The news about Judy reaches US President Compson (John Goodman), who arrives at Digger's mansion to discuss what should be done next. Rather than trying to save Europe, Digger, Compson and other influential political and military personalities try to find ways to control the narrative. What happens next forms the rest of the film. Digger Movie Story Review: Sabina Berman, Alejandro G Irritu and Jez Butterworth's story is highly relevant in today's world. However, it's also confusing. Alejandro G Irritu, Alexander Dinelaris, Nicols Giacobone and Sabina Berman's screenplay is peppered with several satirical moments which keep the interest going. But the writing also gets experimental, and it succeeds only partially. The dialogues are acidic and funny and completely in sync with the film's mood. Alejandro G Irritu's direction is quirky and bravura. As always, he focuses beautifully on world-building. The characters are larger-than-life and nasty, but are presented in such a quirky and satirical manner that it enhances the impact. A few scenes are hilarious, especially the President being briefed about the catastrophe and the meeting ending with a prayer, Digger blurting out the truth before the European Council, etc. Some characters also seem to be inspired by real-life personalities, which adds to the fun. On the flip side, there's a massive twist in the first 40 minutes that will catch viewers completely unawares. Nobody would see it coming. However, it also adversely affects the film's impact, and interest levels immediately drop. Alejandro suddenly takes viewers away from the world he had painstakingly created and expects them to adjust to an entirely different track. Unfortunately, this track is not as immersive as the principal story. Once viewers become aware of this parallel narrative, even the principal track somehow fails to have the desired impact. Moreover, the film often gets confusing; even the niche audience and intelligentsia might find it difficult to connect with certain portions. The final scene is impactful and one finally understands the purpose behind having the two tracks. However, the clarity comes a little too late in the day. Digger Movie Review Performances: Tom Cruise delivers arguably the finest performance of his career, and is presented in a never-before-seen avatar. He completely sheds his safe action-hero persona and gets into the skin of a character that has to be seen to be believed. Riz Ahmed has a crucial part and is terrific. In fact, he dominates Tom Cruise in several scenes. John Goodman is deliberately over-the-top, and it works very well. Michael Stuhlbarg (Vice President), Jesse Plemons (Kenny) and Robert John Burke (Fitzgerald) do well in small roles. Danny Kirrane (Sandy Clarkson from Greenland) is there for just one scene but leaves a mark. Sandra Hller (Emma Rockwell), Sophie Wilde (Hannah) and the actor playing Curtis' wife get limited scope. Digger movie music and other technical aspects: Cosmo Sheldrake's music is unusual and charming. Emmanuel Lubezki's cinematography is highly creative and especially memorable during Digger's monologue before the European Council. Dennis Gassner and Richard L Johnson's production design is spectacular, while Jacqueline West's costumes are in sync with the requirements of the characters. Stephen Mirrione and Conor O'Neill's editing is functional. Digger Movie Review Conclusion: On the whole, DIGGER is a sharply satirical film that has its share of engaging moments but is held back by its confusing and experimental narrative. Nevertheless, Tom Cruises towering presence and never-before-seen avatar will ensure that the film finds a sizeable audience.

Star Cast: Anne Hathaway, Dakota Johnson, Josh Hartnett Director: Michael Showalter Verity Movie Review Synopsis: VERITY is the story of an aspiring writer who forms an unconventional bond with a bestselling author. Lowen Ashleigh (Dakota Johnson) lives in New York and has published a couple of books. However, her books have barely found any readership. Her mother passed away due to cancer just a week ago and, to make matters worse, she is on the verge of being evicted by her landlord. At this point, Hachette Book Group approaches Lowen with an unusual assignment to help bestselling author Verity Crawford (Anne Hathaway) complete her next book, the much-awaited The Nobel Features. Veritys husband, Jeremy Crawford (Josh Hartnett), is also present at the meeting. He charms Lowen and convinces her to take up the assignment in return for a handsome fee. Lowen agrees and moves to Verity and Jeremys remote lake house in Vermont. The couple lives there with their son, Crew (Brady Wagner). Their daughter, and Crews twin sister, Harper, died in a boating accident a year ago. Jeremy is grieving not only Harpers death but also the fact that Verity is now in a comatose condition. Lowen, meanwhile, had not been informed beforehand about the severity of Veritys condition. Lowen is tasked with going through Veritys notes and completing the novel in her style. The process gradually consumes her, especially since Veritys characters and writings are extremely dark. While going through Veritys study, Lowen also comes across a tell-all manuscript written by the author about her marital life. Its shocking revelations disturb Lowen even further. What happens next forms the rest of the film. Verity Movie Story Review: VERITY is based on Colleen Hoover's novel of the same name. The story is unconventional but also gets complicated. Nick Antosca's screenplay keeps one hooked as the goings-on are pretty intense. At the same time, the happenings are difficult to digest and often gets disturbing. The dialogues are simple and effective. Michael Showalter's direction is average. To give credit where its due, the setting is eerie and captivates the audience. To see two popular actresses playing such difficult roles also adds to the fun. One constantly wonders what must have happened in the past and whos guilty. The runtime is just 117 minutes, which is apt. On the flipside, the initial portions often give a dj vu of THE HOUSEMAID [2025], as here too, an unsuspecting woman arrives at a remote mansion, shares a cold equation with the wife and finds herself attracted to the dashing yet troubled husband. Thankfully, the film soon switches tracks and establishes an identity of its own. Even then, the proceedings get increasingly disturbing, and a few sequences are certainly not for the faint-hearted. The finale is not entirely convincing and, moreover, the film ends on an ambiguous note that is bound to leave even the elite viewers scratching their heads. As a result, VERITY is likely to appeal only to a niche section of the multiplex audience. Verity Movie Review Performances: The performances are very strong. Anne Hathaway is on a roll and, yet again, delivers a performance that stays with you long after the credits roll. Even in the scenes where she is in a coma, she makes her presence felt and comes across as suitably unsettling, as required by the part. Dakota Johnson, too, puts her best foot forward, and her deadpan expressions work well for the character. Josh Hartnett gets slightly overshadowed by the two leading ladies but still manages to register a strong impact. He is especially impressive in the first two sequences. Irina Dvorovenko (Anna) is decent, though her character is underdeveloped. Brady Wagner is endearing, while Ismael Cruz Cordova (Corey) is passable. Verity movie music and other technical aspects: Volker Bertelmanns music adds considerably to the eerie atmosphere. Jim Frohnas cinematography is breathtaking, especially in the Vermont portions. Amy Williams production design is classy and distinctive. Jacqueline Demeterios costumes are elegant and regal, particularly those worn by Anne Hathaway, while the costumes of the other characters are realistic. Jay Cassidys editing is slick and keeps the narrative moving at a brisk pace. Verity Movie Review Conclusion: On the whole, VERITY suffers due to its disturbing treatment, unconvincing finale and ambiguous ending. At the box office, it will face an uphill task, especially with stiff competition from DRISHYAM THE CONCLUSION and THE DIGGER.
