After being wrongly found guilty of stealing a pair of sneakers, Stanley Yelnats (Shia LaBeouf) gets sent to Camp Green Lake, a juvenile correctional facility in the bed of a long-gone dry Texas lake. There--under the watchful eye of overseer Mr Sir (a zesty Jon Voight), sneakily mean therapist Dr Pendanski (Tim Blake Nelson), and the cool and cruel Warden (Sigourney Weaver)--Stanley and dozens of other delinquents are forced to dig an endless series of holes that the warden hopes will lead her to a precious secret left behind by a long-dead female outlaw (Patricia Arquette). Sachar's book is beloved for its vivid characters and suspenseful plot; by sticking close to its source, Holes has become a dynamic, exciting and surprisingly touching movie. --Bret Fetzer Average Rating:
 Rating:  - 'You gotta go dig them holes'This is one of the best films I've seen in ages - funny, touching and close to the book. It leaps from past to present, story to real life easily and effectively, and ties up Kissin' Kate Barlow, Madame Zerone and the Warden well, mixing up the stories as seamlessly as the book does. It is a beautiful adaption of the book - the screenplay was written by Louis Sachar himself, which means that it's been done exactly as he meant it to be. Writing is making a film in your head, and this is exactly the kind of film he was writing. Rating: - One film you would love to dig upThis is a brilliant film suitable for kids familys and adults. I read the book first then saw the film. I am currently reading the book 'small steps' which is a brilliant conclusion. Louis Sachar is one of America's best writers I hope to read all of her novels. Rating: - good stuffDidn't know what to expect which was probably a blessing as on paper I wouldn't have chosen it. Watched it with my 7 year old and was surprised that he followed the story as I thought it was quite complicated for someone of that age. Just goes to show what I know and that children are capable of more than we adults give them credit for! He enjoyed it so much that he watched it again the following day and the day after that! It came out of it's case again at Christmas for a group of boys and everyone of them loved it. From an adult perspective I thought it was great, not your predictable children's fodder that you can have a nap half way through and not miss anything. This is a clever, well acted film particularly for boys. Rating: - Why can't I download to TIVOWhy can't I download this movie to TIVO. I've been waiting for ages to see this. Rating:  - unplayable formatWE CAN ONLY PLAY THE DVDS ON THE COMPUTER BUT 19'' SO THAT IS OK. NEVER HAD A PROBLEM BEFORE THIS RENTED DVD! THE PLAYER DOES NOT SUPPORT THIS FORMAT!
