I haven’t seen Holes yet, but I will, even though (a) it’s a Disney film, and (b) I do not have teenaged children who could learn the value of a hard day’s work in the hot sun.

The book was really great. Read my review: Holes, by Louis Sachar

Of the movie, Mick LaSalle writes,

It was directed by Andrew Davis, who has made too many good movies for it to be a coincidence… He allows for outlandish characterizations but keeps the movie real, not permitting it to degenerate into silliness despite the inclusion of typical kid-movie jokes about smelly feet and flatulence.

What’s wrong with silly jokes about smelly feet and flatulence? If these are really just a kid-movie phenomenon, maybe I’ve been seeing all the wrong movies.
