Review Time

Warning: there is flashing effects/colorful effects/environmental component/animal cruelty/medical/ references to cancer and this film is full of mature to adult themes including dark themes/animal waste

Well this was certainly something: briefly; we meet Digger Rockwell/another character [Tom Cruise:] he is a business tycoon that deals with oil, he doesn't care about the consequences just results and this movie explores this mindset and those consequences 

Generally speaking: the storyline/script is thought provoking as it holds up a mirror to predominantly America  or any of a country that doesn't believe in actions have consequences and mother nature is coming to collect sooner rather than later, the  framework of this movie is fantastic, without giving too much away it switches focus broaden the world around us to give us a more immersive experience, but I hastened to add it is something not less important of equal importance and that you don't like to say about that really, but also in coinciding in this; you also have this really dark atmosphere throughout, I mean in conjunction with that we clearly have some dark comedy, I mean if you have ever watched any kind of Monty Pythons material such as the legendary Monty Python's Life of Brian 1979 In particular Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life: where in a nutshell we have Jesus singing this well-known song; I chose this as a reference because that is the kind of comedy style we are dealing with in this film but so much more Intensely darker and it doesn't have and off switch, they may do other things from time to time just to unsettle it's audience but it doesn't have an off switch, but at least there is always something to see and experience, so this film has excellent if bizarre pacing which this film does go on for roughly 129 minutes

Art, comedy and action; this film can also be very inviting visually based on its set designs and scenery designs also, but remember you will also see things that may or may not discuss you or be unpleasant viewing including but not limited to hearing broadly speaking and paraphrasing; How long has my cat got to live? Or mind your language because there may be women present [the joke being there are no women present in this room at this time and all of these male characters laugh at that fact]or a character that may have just died at the worst time possible when we are going through a military operation.

Character developments and performance; is character developments are precisely designed to be who they are and this cast all come together with in-depth performance as to bring these people to life; but Tom Cruise in this role should absolutely be nominated for an Oscar; completely embodies this character is outrageous appearance in front of all of these people where he literally verbally hands them they posterior on a silver platter is stuff of a modern cinema classic moment.

Supporting role Oscar nominee it should be Riz Ahmed as Dr. Nirav Ganesh/ another character: a scientist and Digger's head of Environmental Safety: he really does try to tell digger how things are actually going and how things are actually, but as you can tell by now this particular job is actually really hard work; this is a masterful performance being able to Comfortably hang with Cruise and Goodman on screen should the absolutely indicate what kind of performance Ahmed puts in here and in another supporting role capacity we have John Goodman as Compson, the President of the United States: he does have health concerns and he wants this problem resolved; Goodman puts in this spectacular performance as he as is with the other two in his bedroom as he discovers that things were not going that well he goes on a serious yet highly amusing rant.

This film receives: 10/10, this film is top-notch entertainment; now I am fully aware that this film has had at least some people walk out, on top of that it isn't doing brilliant at the box office, in fact it is doing dreadfully and it will end up with a financial loss, but if it could get some more positive awards accredited to its name in one way or another, such as at minimum nominees for 3 Oscars, I would gladly take that as a win, because this film is an art and social commentary piece and it has an ongoing sequence underneath some of the closing credits. this film also has 1 Nominee Astra Midseason Movie Awards 2026 Astra Midseason Award Most Anticipated Film
