Watch The Finished People For Free

i know i wasted 90 mins of my life.

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

I believe that this film captures the reality that most people living in the Cabramatta/Fairfield area face every day. The stigma attached to living in these suburbs is hard for most to overcome.As a school teacher that has worked in these suburbs I have personally experienced first hand the depressing mood that teenagers have. It is extremely difficult to motivate people to concentrate on schoolwork when they have huge problems at home. Many are abused, have family or friends with drug problems, or see no way out but too turn to crime in order to be able to feed themselves. Having said this, the overwhelming majority of residents of Fairfield and Cabramatta are just trying to make a good life.

Watched this movie today and it was absolutely astounding. All the actors are first timers as far as i know and the director Khoa Do is also on debut. I was particularly impressed with the actor who played Tommy as he had such a great screen presence.Basically, the movie covers a few days in the lives of three different young adults living in poverty in the Sydney suburb of Cabramatta. Their lives are compelling and tragic and serve as a wake up call to us as viewers; that we NEED to acknowledge that this is going on around us and take action - we cannot continue to turn a blind eye. As one of the characters says, all they want is a little COMPASSION.

I saw this film last year at the Dendy Cinemas in Sydney and it blew me away. I'm surprised to finally see it listed here. One of the most powerful films I have ever seen, the characters remain with you long after.The way the stories are integrated really works...this film follows the story of three young people and their lives, and I can't remember all their names but the bloke who breaks down at the station is really exceptional. He's got a future in acting...there's one scene in a car park that I think is one of the landmark scenes in Australian film. Anyways, I really do praise this film. In the last few years, we have seen some very bad Australian movies, but I remember after seeing The Finished People, it reminded of how powerful Aussie movies can be, and also. I think this director is very talented and is someone to look out for.

This documentary gave a rare insight into the world of the forgotten homeless people of sydney. I have lived my whole life in sydney N.S.W in Australia and never gave it thought about the plight of these people. In this documentary you are given a first hand tour of what it is like to spend all your days and nights living on the streets and fending for yourself. You also learn that the government is not willing or able to help out a lot of these people, many who are under 25 or children. I was amazed that so many homeless people live amongst us and yet unless we go in like the film producers of this documentary, we will never understand why so many live on the streets. It is true of the title of this movie because most people feel there is no hope to their situation, but i believe with a little knowledge through this documentary we can learn and maybe help in some small way. excellent doco 10 out of 10....
