About this movie

The award-winning bestseller comes to life in this phenomenally fun, adventure-filled movie starring Emmy Award-winner Shia LaBeouf. Dogged by bad luck stemming from an ancient family curse, young Stanley Yelnats (LaBeouf) is sent to Camp Green Lake, a very weird place that's not green and doesn't have a lake. Once there, he's thrown headlong into the adventure of his life when he and his colorful campmates -- Squid, Armpit, Zigzag, Magnet, X-Ray, and Zero -- must dig a hole a day to keep the warden at bay. But why? Through it all, Stanley and company must forge fast friendships as they try to unearth the mystery of what's really going on in the middle of nowhere. Filled with humor and heartwarming messages of friendship and teamwork, HOLES is a treasure everyone will dig.

Ratings and reviews

I really loved this movie and the only reason I rate it 4 stars is because of how it was a little different from the book's story. It actually stayed pretty true for the most part and was entertaining to watch :)

Love it i read it in class and it was awsome just finished it and it was cool it was intreging the whole class had suspicion. wow it has alot of mystery's they had to uncover The book was awesome i can imagine the movie haven't seen it yet but im going to👍👍👍👍👍👍😆😆

Aside from the movie dark of the moon, this is Shia's best movie. It has humor, a great story, attitude and even a little bit of action. Also, the flashbacks are handled well without becoming confusing. One of Disney's best movies. The only thing that could beat this movie is the book.
