Holes (2003)

I've been a big fan of the book for a long time, so when I heard there was a movie in the works I was a bit leery... I was unsure whether Disney could keep the utter goofiness of the original story - but thank goodness, Louis Sachar wrote the screenplay as well, and what we ended up with was this charming, almost identical-to-the-book, children's film. It could almost be compared to a Roald Dahl story, except a bit more cheery. Way to go, movie peoples! I have more faith in the movie industry now! :-D 4.5 stars.
