Young viewers and old alike will be given powerful metaphors of servanthood and selflessness, humility and honor, courage and Christ-like kindness.

O roteiro leve e bem construído, aliado às performances de um elenco carismático, deu origem ao tipo de filme que certamente divertirá toda a família.

Engaging, generous, and well-paced. Holes is inventively plotted and its coincidences and crazy mysticism pull you in the way the best children's fiction does.

Unlike so many kids movies, Holes hasn't been dumbed down, loaded with bathroom humor

Funny, inspiring and just a little bit naughty, Holes is excellent family entertainment.

For all its faults, Holes has an overriding good humor and sense of fun that saves it from the usual drudge of children's pictures.

Holes is a rarity among kids' movies: It's dark, complex, intelligent and well-acted.

An honestly extraordinary maturation performance by Even Stevens' Shia LaBeouf proves Disney truly has monopoly over the most talented youth actors

There are so many delightful little touches and warped bits of storytelling that I can't imagine anyone who won't love this film.
