While the caper plot has its moments, I kept hoping "Trash" would do more than treat its setting as some curiously unexplainable foreign planet. Go to Full Review Entertainment Weekly 10/09/2015

A diverting two hours, and an excellent reminder of the wide world of stories out there waiting to be told. Go to Full Review Michael Rechtshaffen Los Angeles Times 10/09/2015

4/5
Daldry has a rare talent... for drawing out the very best from young actors. The sheer joy and energy of the boys propels Trash and keeps us rooting for good over evil despite the contrived ending. Go to Full Review Jared Mobarak The Film Stage 02/20/2016

This effectively tense adventure also delivers the heart and heroism audiences love. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

thiago S @Thiagostone Mar 23 Filme mais ou menos, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são mais ou menos, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom, eo filme tem um drama bom. See more Stephen C @bob25009 May 28 LOL, 1 hour and 53 minutes of comedy.
