Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.

Konterr Brilliant and touching

MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant

Seraherrera The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

carrierflight This is a TERRIBLE movie. I am really shocked by the generally positive reviews here. The story is full of promise, but the hacked script, poor editing, bad acting, confused direction (are the other boys Stanley's friends or not!?) makes this excruciating to watch. I would hardly give this a 1 out of 10!

steynbergt-56997 A perfect 10 from me for this movie.I am not going to explain what the story is about, you can read it on the IMDb site, instead, I will give my opinion.This is a movie the whole family can watch, and should watch. It is a Walt Disney Movie after all.In between the three different stories that intertwine, there are life lessons to learn. Like keep the promises you make, don't kill, don't judge a book by its cover, friendship is important etc.I am impressed by the way the three different stories unfold as well as how and when information pertinent to the story is revealed.The actors/actresses are perfectly suited for their roles. Each and everyone of them played their part perfectly.Yes, I did not read the book so I might not be as critical as some reviewers, but I certainly can watch this movie repeatedly and not get tired of.

raphaelplourder This film created in 2003. Andrew Davis is the director of «Holes» and Louis Sachar create a great screenplay. It is a great adventure movie in Texas and it was filmed in California. The movie last, 117 min. The main characters is Stanley Yelnats (Shia Laboeuf), the second character is Hector Zeroni (Khleo Thomas) and the others actors are very good.Stanley was accused for a crime that he did not commit, he went to a juvenile detention camp and he dug holes. When his best friend leaves the camp, Stanley leaves to find him. For survive they went in the top of the mountain. Finally they dug the last hole and he found a … During his trip, Stanley found something that was most important than the wealth.The costumes are very cool because the actors are dirty and they are sweating. But the film don't have good setting because it is not realistic (themountain). But the other landscapes are very realistic.The movie has no full visual effects but the yellow spotted lizards are very realisict. The soundtrack is very good for a film. The movie has full song and my favorite is the first. But when Kissing Kate Barlow kills the people the soundtrack is very offbeat, for the others action scene is good.I will talk about the incoherence between the book and the movie. In the book Stanley is big but in the movies he is skinny. The warden has no red hair in the movie. When Stanley and hector Zeroni leave the holes, in the book they are slow but in the film they are faster.i think that it is a great movies and I appreciate the film. I recommend to listening this film.Raphael 202

marle-63411 This film, produced in 2003 by Andrew Davis, stars Stanley Yelnats (Shia Laboeuf), a young teenager sent to a detention in Texas, in 1998. This is an adventure-comedy movie made for the whole family.The story starts when Stanley Yelnats, going at home, is hitting by shoes falling from the sky. At this moment, the police's sure Stanley stole them, so the boy is arrested and sent to a detention camp in the desert of Texas, Camp Green Lake. The teenager is sure that it's because of a curse from his no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing great-great-grandfather. During his sojourn, Stanley make himself a friend, Zero. One day, Zero decides to escape from Camp Green Lake, where's no lake, and Stanley decides to go with him, in the middle of the desert, in a mountain named 'God's Thumb'.There are a lot of differences between the movie and the original novel, but I like the way there's also a lot of similarities. Example, Camp Green Lake's situated in the desert like in the book, the Warden's red haired, X-Ray isn't tall and the donkey of Sam, the onion man, is named Mary Lou. In contrary, in the movie, Stanley lives in Texas, but in the book, he lives in California. Also, in the movie, Stanley's a slim boy, but in the book, he's an over-weighted boy.Then, I really like the 3D effects of the Yellow-Spotted lizards because they don't seem so realistic in 2016, but for a movie from the starting of the 2000's, it's a good job. It's better than some effects of 2015's movies.Finally, I think Holes is a good movie for kids under 11 years old. This film is been awarded more than 11 times, so I think it's enough to say it's well-done. I'd recommend Holes or a summer Friday night in family like everyone likes it !Good movie ! ! !Leanne 202
