The Hole (in 3D) - film review

I went to see this because there was nothing else interesting on at the cinema. In my opinion Gremlins is one of the best films ever so I'm always going to give anything by Joe Dante a look. Even if it's only as good as Eerie, Indiana it's still good.



The Hole tells the story of a single mother and her two son as they move into a new town. The boys and the girl next door find a padlocked door concealing a deep hole in the basement. Surprisingly enough, something bad is in the hole.



The 3D effects felt a bit tacked on but the film was generally entertaining. It was funny in places with a few good frights and it would probably be OK to let your kids see it. Joe Dante does not let you down!

The only annoying thing was the Glasweigan tweenagers in the cinema who kept lighting matches and making jokes about getting their 'hole' until the cinema usher threatened to kifk them out
