This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

I came across this flick due Danielle Harris being in it. This flick is filed under comedy and crime so i thought I gave it a try. The story is simple. Two boys getting in trouble will be sent to college but they do need the money. The mother hasn't got any so it's time to rob a fast food joint. It intended to be funny but I didn't laugh at any moment. Even as it do has stupid moments actually to be funny, for me it never worked. On the other hand there's the crime too, that part was low too, it's really about the comedy. Here and there, like with the safe, we do have a bit of slapstick situations. But overall, this wasn't my thing. Maybe teenagers will have a big laughter recognising the situations but for me this was exactly what the last word says in the title.Gore 0/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 1/5 Story 2/5 Comedy 0,5/5

I went to college at Southern Illinois University in Carbondale. As a northern Illinois native and having spent 6 years in the military, I thought I was prepared for living down there. Not so. People are just "different" down there. It was great seeing some of the places we used to frequent in college: i.e the waffle house in Marion. The plot represents the majority of the newspaper headlines I read in the Southern Illinoisan, as well as what we saw in downtown C'dale. If you want to see a true representation of the loud but entertaining Southern Illinois Redneck (Trashicus Trailerus) as well as drool over Jamie Presley, watch this movie.

Sure this was fun and it left me with ever-repeating question-why are such films rarities nowadays?The characters are really adorable,the plot is amusing,the actors' performances are exquisite!(still,if I had to single only one of them,that would be Jason London in his best comedic performance ever!)And the sight of the radiant Sean young with a rifle gun!!!(this reminded me of the similar hidden gem,starring Sean young(the must-see black comedy "hold me,thrill me,kill me")).I got the real kick out of this film but what I liked best is its tricky simplicity,hiding numerous sub-concepts such as a bunch of under-appreciated,wrongfully forsaken actors in leading roles!Such a shame that this movie shared their destiny!To conclude-try this one out,in not for anything else,then for a heart-warming pleasure of reminding yourself of how good a true B-movie can feel!

I rented "Poor White Trash" and laughed throughout the entire picture. It's ranks with other white trash greats such as "Joe Dirt," "Sling Blade," "Wild at Heart" and "Drowning Mona." Really, really funny.
