A great family movie. It's about a kid who is suffering from a family curse
put on one of his great grandfathers who is sent to a jail-type camp where
all the kids dig holes all day. There is a fairly deep plot surrounding the
curse, the jail/camp warden, and some of the other kids there. The plot
might be too complex for kids under about 8 or 10 years old, but
otherwise this can be thouroughly enjoyed by all ages. Great performances
from Sigorney Weaver and Jon Voight.
