Stanley is dogged by the family curse and blamed for a crime he didn’t commit. Sent to juvenile detention centre, Camp Green Lake, Stanley is forced to dig holes in the desert. A story of good against evil, courage and redemption, Holes delivers a murder mystery and treasure hunt that takes in racism and prison reform along the way. The director signals the importance of family, friendship and loyalty without a hint of condescension.

Holes jumps the rails, leaves all expectations behind, and tells a story that’s not funny ha-ha but funny peculiar. I found it original and intriguing. Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

Its the villains, led by Sigourney Weaver, who steal the show. Philip French, The Guardian

Holes conveys a mystical aura, a sense of history repeating itself, of rights being wronged across time. Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
