Beatrice Loayza New York Times 05/19/2022
Against [more] inventive and formidable dramas, "Digger" doesn't exactly stand out — perhaps because its terse David and Goliath conflict doesn't yield satisfyingly punchy results. Go to Full Review William Repass Slant Magazine 05/16/2022
2.5/4
Georgis Grigorakis’s film may not revolutionize the western genre by transposing it to an unlikely setting, but it doesn’t dilute it either. Go to Full Review Phil Hoad Guardian 02/15/2021
3/5
A world-weary but engaging film. Go to Full Review Joel Copling Spectrum Culture 05/23/2022
A lyrical final scene earns this film’s fascinating tightrope of blunt, unsubtle sociopolitical commentary and character study. Go to Full Review Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru 05/19/2022
Poetic and occasionally moving, but often meandering, unfocused and repetitive. Go to Full Review Cameron Meier MeierMovies.com 03/26/2022
