A light-hearted but little-known comedy by two masters of the craft! We all miss George Carlin and wish that he was still with us. I'd like to add one piece of information. Although not mentioned in the credits of the movie, nor in the cast listing in IMDb, the George Carlin character "Ralph" the janitor did have a last name, which was mentioned orally at least once in the movie (the final scene). Ralph's surname is SAWATZKY(a German Mennonite name originally of Ukrainian or Slavic origin, common in North America, especially in the West and Midwest)- the reason I remember that, is that it resembles my own name, Ralph Watzke. People often confuse the names Sawatzky and Watzke. I even considered suing for appropriating my identity, but never pursued it!

Ben Stiller and George Carlin are the stars in this nice comedy that try to funny with the success run's of the men. A young finance genius assume on to a Stock Exchange company but only as cleaning man and with a old colleague began to play in it thanks to few information that they found in the sweepings for pay the gambling debt to the old man. He found money, love and success. Laughter and care freeness are the leadings element in this TV comedy, that I must say it's very good also that it's only a TV movie. Maybe with a best developed of the story and a major deeper the final product was more believable and interesting but the two leading character anyway are likely and funny, in particular Ben Stiller in the beginning is very and already demonstrate his talent. For a care freeness evening and for see a young Ben Stiller in a role that if not have the freshness and the humorous of his new product is anyway appreciable. My rate is 6.

George Carlin was and remains a great man of thought of this world, a profound philosopher and a man with infinite and very original humor. Here, he is just an actor, in a small, sympathetic role, in a movie without too big claims. The best part I've seen Ben Stiller. And Leslie Hope is sexy!

"Working Trash" is watchable for the interesting pairing of George Carlin and Ben Stiller. Unfortunately the script, which has a promising premise, is underdeveloped, especially in regards to believability. The theme is somewhat similar to "Trading Places", however the result is inferior. Then again, this is a TV movie, so expectations should be less, and on that note, I suppose it delivers enough chuckles. Supporting roles by Buddy Ebson, and Michael J. Pollard are another plus. It is almost worth seeing just for some of George Carlin's outlandish costumes. Don't expect miracles and you might enjoy it. - MERK

There are plenty of laughs...... and a story line. I enjoyed more by watching again with commentaries. I haven't done this for a while. This commentary was informative and kept my attention. Facts like.... You find out this was Ben's first feature film. Buddy & Ben's input in the script. That they did their own stunts, except for one very dangerous one. A low budget film. The use of angles and lighting were exceptional. Although made in 1990, 16 years ago, it definitely seems more recent. In other words, the other reviewer did not give this film a fair chance. I have said as much as I can without this being a spoiler.
