Trash

The answer to the question above is in this movie because that's what happens when 2 teenage boys living in the slums of Rio find something valuable in the city dump. This movie has a lot of heart and it comes with a beautiful message of faith, perseverance and determination. The 3 boys were fan to watch, such a group of talented boys plus Rooney Mara and Martin Sheen speaking Portuguese was amazing. Great movie but I won't say much not to spoil this brilliant plot but I might add that the scenes in the cemetery were my favorite.

This movie is primarily in Portuguese, so reading is required to watch it. But the movie is fast-paced and you soon forget that you're reading. This is an inspiring movie about 3 boys, with the help of a missionary priest and female teacher that overcome rampant police and local government corruption. At great risk to their personal safety, they work together to expose a corrupt mayor-wanna-be and police department. It brings to light how poor people in Brazil are viewed and treated. Most of all, however, it beautifully brings out the fact that there is good and beauty in everyone, if we only take time to notice it. A very well done film worth seeing.

This is so touching!!! The three boys are s brave! I was came for Rooney but this film is really not just about anyone since each role plays an very important part and all the characters are live and sunny! The name of it is called Trash, and there is a scene at the very last few minutes when the boys are throwing cash into the mountains of trashes, which is soooo amazingly captured, hit right to the point where money would be less than trash when people are chasing them with evil desires. Great love! 5 stars!!!!

I usually try not to do movies with subtitles but this was ok and wow , great story, great acting by the kids and very well worth watching. Highly recommend it. Glad I bought it.

Expect the unexpected. Extremely well done. 5 stars out of 5.

I showed this to my middle school students and they loved it. I was a little nervous about the subtitles, but they surprised me by staying focused and really following the characters in the film.

It's an OK film which has some good points, but, child stars in this sort of thing are known to have ended up dumped right back into the garbage when the hooplah was over. So it has a taint of exploitation about it that cannot be dispelled.

A sad and a terrible indictment of political corruption in 2rd and 3rd world countries. Unfortunately, it is now becoming more common in 1st world countries. The "kids" are terrific, the plot complicated, but it is a worthy movie in many different ways. The photopraghy is great.

I borrowed "Trash" from my local library when my grandson had to read the book at school. After viewing the film, I felt it was such an excellent movie that I had to own a copy and be able to watch it over again, and again. It is a touching story on a theme about which we hear little. The acting was impressive, particularly that of the young lads. There are some quite harsh aspects to the saga but the conclusion is a satisfying one.

A good story, and well acted.Deserves a watch, maybe over and over again.

This movie was a real eye opener for me & an education, not always easy to watch & quite tense in some places, but excellent acting by the children who played the main characters. It definitely deserved to win a BAFTA.

Absorbing film with good performances from the child actors.

Good film love it
