Crazy credits At the very end of the credits, Hector "Zero" Zeroni quotes the curse his great-great-great-grandmother made with her accent and speech patterns. User reviews Review. Top review. Way beyond a family film.
This is one of my favorite films of all time. I read the book and liked it, but this movie expands on everything the book made famous. The acting is fantastic, especially from Jon Voight, who plays Mr. Sir, a very evil character. This film has a certain way of storytelling that keeps you hooked throughout, until the end where everything is pulled together for a great ending.
I also love the way this is directed, by flashing back and forth between the modern day and Stanley's ancestors' stories. The story was written by Louis Sachar, yes, but it seems that this story is made for film, and Andrew Davis does a great job directing it. I definitely recommend this to anyone who enjoys good movies. FAQ What is "Holes" about? Is "Holes" based on a novel? How did Stanley get the nickname "Caveman"? Details Edit.

Precisely how a story about a pair of stolen sneakers and juvenile delinquents digging holes in the hot Texas sun eventually encompasses a tragic frontier romance in the Old West, a nineteenth-century Latvian curse, a dried-up lake where no drop of rain has fallen since a murder was committed more than a century ago, a legendary female bank robber, deadly yellow-spotted lizards, rattlesnake-venom nail polish, and a formula for eliminating foot odor is a discovery, or rather series of discoveries, that are among the pleasures of watching Holes.
Somehow or other, the universe, or perhaps it is Providence, is looking out for him. When the stolen sneakers seem to fall out of the sky on him, setting him on the path to the cruelly misnamed Camp Green Lake, it seems like a cosmic practical joke. In the book, a certain circumstance is directly implied to be an act of divine judgment, and by inference a later change in circumstances seems to be divine mercy or lifting of a punishment.
Davis and Sachar deserve credit for refusing to dumb down the story and delivering a film that will reward repeated viewing. Continues below.
