Tom Cruise has spent the last few years making it very clear that he wants you in a theater, in a big seat, watching him do something dangerous on the biggest screen possible. So it's worth noting that his new movie Digger, which arrives in theaters this weekend, is also available to stream while it plays on the big screen. Per MSN's breakdown, you can stream it on various platforms right as it hits theaters, so you don't have to pick between opening weekend and your couch.

The practical answer to the question everyone's asking: yes, Digger is streaming. The source doesn't name specific services, so I'd check whichever digital storefronts you already use rather than take my word for which ones have it. A subscription streaming home may follow down the line, but nothing official has been announced, so don't hold your breath on a specific service.

What do we actually know about the movie itself? Less than you'd think, and I'm speculating here, but I suspect that's deliberate. Cruise projects tend to keep plot details quiet until release, and Digger seems to be following that pattern. When a movie shows up with this little advance detail, the pitch is usually the star and the spectacle, and that's a bet I'm generally willing to take with this particular guy.

And my track record on this is consistent. I said it about Maverick, I said it about The Odyssey, and I'll say it again: when a movie is built around spectacle, the communal big-screen version is the version. Streaming it opening weekend is a perfectly fine option, but it's the difference between hearing a concert and being in the room.

If you go the theatrical route, premium formats are worth the upgrade here. If you're staying home, watch it on the biggest screen you own and turn the lights off. Nobody involved made this thing for you to watch it on a phone.

I'll have a full review once I've seen it this weekend. Until then, check showtimes near you or hit your platform of choice. I'm curious whether the streaming availability cuts into the box office or whether Cruise is box-office-proof regardless. My money's on the second one.
