Holes
The award-winning best seller 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 (LeBeouf) 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.
