What people are saying
Updated nightlyMost people like this frantic Tom Cruise thriller, but it's a bumpy ride. Cruise plays Digger Rockwell, the world's most powerful man trying to save everyone from his own disaster, and he's the main point of contention. While the acting is strong (John Goodman and Riz Ahmed are standouts) and it looks great, the story is a bit thin and the pacing is a serious problem. It splits people right down the middle on Cruise and director Alejandro G. Iñárritu, leaving a movie that's easy to admire but hard to love.
