“Brilliant… Karpovsky’s film is amazingly executed and comically assured. As a filmmaker and as a actor, he never makes a wrong move, delivering a movie that is 100% convincing as a documentary, and equally as solid as a comedy. But where ‘The Hole Story’ begins to venture into the realm of genius is on he way Karpovsky blurs the line between truth and fiction… the fact that you can pretty much never tell when Karpovsky is being honest, or when he is pulling your leg is what pushes ‘The Hole Story’ toward brilliance… A beautifully crafted, wonderfully executed, and absolutely hilarious film, ‘The Hole Story’ is one of the best comedies in recent years."
