Guillermo del Toro is not digging some reviews for Digger
A champion for Digger has emerged in director Guillermo del Toro, who has taken to X to call the film "a theatrical experience."
Alejandro González Iñárritu's Digger is receiving mixed reviews from critics, with Alejandro González Iñárritu himself defending the film on social media. Director Guillermo del Toro has emerged as a champion for the Tom Cruise vehicle, praising it as a "theatrical experience" and emphasizing its scale, ambition, and cinematic complexity.
Del Toro was responding to an IGN post that called the film's review headline "entirely petty." He defended the film's ability to deliver in terms of scale, ambition, and reach in a theatrical setting. Despite the mixed reviews, del Toro insists that audiences should experience the film for themselves, referencing the reevaluation of critically panned films like The Big Lebowski and The King Of Comedy.
