Warner Bros releases ad contrasting international praise with American criticism for Digger
Warner Bros released a new online advertisement for Tom Cruise's film Digger that compares positive reviews from foreign critics with negative ones from the United States.
Ad contrasts global and local reviews
The advertisement displays glowing quotes from international sources alongside unfavorable comments from American outlets. A Mexican YouTuber described the film as epic and extraordinary while an American publication called it grotesque. A French critic praised the movie as a gem of intelligence before The New York Post labeled it unintentionally bad.
Film characters address audience directly
Tom Cruise's character states that America has stood beside the world in its darkest hours. Riz Ahmed's character responds by saying that is no longer true. The spot concludes with Cruise asking viewers to decide which opinion they prefer.
Box office expectations remain low
The film is expected to gross around eight million dollars at the domestic weekend box office. This figure is lower than the studio's prediction of twelve to fifteen million dollars. The earnings are also significantly below the projected budget of one hundred twenty-five million dollars.
