For the life of me, I'll never understand how this movie

Far too complex for a kids movie, much less a Disney movie.

Holes was my favorite book as a kid. I was so happy with the way this film turned out. Much better times

>Jon Voight as Mr Sir
>Tim Blake Nelson as Mom
>Sigourney Weaver as Warden

I also think perfect casting was part of it of course

One of the most rewatchable movies out there

WELL THAT'S TOO DAMN BAD

>>83427334
It actually held up to the book.

Love it.

I fucking loved the movie but never really understood it until years later.

>>83427334
Kino as fuck

Patricia Arquette is a qt.

>>83427334
Shia's best role possibly well this and Tru Confessions if anyone remembers that one

>>83427334
It really is just a good movie, based on a good book. It's actually kind of strange, you don't often see such a seamless adaptation. The book was 8/10, and the movie was 8/10. They nailed the casting, the tone, the plot, everything.

Literally one of the most underrated movies of any genre imo. It had a plot that was actually very complex yet at the same time very interesting and smooth to follow. Great casting too

Shia Lebeouf was a great child actor. Even Stevens was kino children's tv.

dig it up oh oh dig it

dig it up oh oh (ooohhh)

Is that the one where he played a mentally retarded boy and her sister would berate him?

>>83427334
That's what a solid story does

Too bad he turned nuts

>>83430326
I haven't seen anything of his since I saw Transformers and Disturbia in high school. Is he any good these days with his method acting shit?

>>83430189
That's cause they had the author do the screenplay.

Yeah that one his own Gilbert Grape I guess. He's not bad in it and that movie isn't awful either.

>>83427334
It's just a really well made movie with a lot of memorable performances.

>>83430346
He was good in Fury and Lawless

It was a well directed, well acted kids movie that didn't pander to pop culture trends at the time, or talk down to it's audience. That's why it still holds up remarkably well.

>>83427334
I would have liked to have seen the post apocalyptic version the studios wanted
