Steinesongo Too many fans seem to be blown away

Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

TheNuclearDom I am a big fan of the video game "Postal 2," and I thought this film was more faithful to its source material than other video game movies. There are lots of awful jokes and over-the-top action sequences. Honestly, that over-the-top action is one of my favorite aspects of the film. I'm not going to spoil anything, but there are some scenes towards the end of the movie that show some great action. Everybody has their preferences when it comes to action. Another thing I like about this movie is the music. Some of these songs are so catchy and memorable that I'll start humming them out of nowhere. The acting, for the most part, is very poor. However, Zack Ward and Dave Foley are pretty good. The other actors are bad, but I do like how there's cameos from both Uwe Boll, the film's controversial director, and Vince Desi, the creator of the Postal video games. There are DEFINITELY things about the movie that are terrible. For example, the plot gets way too complicated. This is where I get into some spoilers. Terrorists are trying to steal a flu serum that is contained inside penis-shaped "Krotchy" dolls (another reference to Postal 2), and want to spread it across the United States. Our main characters, Dave, Richie, and "Dude", are trying to stop these terrorists from spreading the disease. However, Richie informs them that their original plan was to get ahold of the virus and spread it across the ENTIRE PLANET. The whole reason this is the plan is because it was the "prophecy" written in a bible that DAVE WROTE. Why didn't he say anything? He doesn't even know anything about it. The plot is WAY too complicated, and has almost nothing to do with the Postal games. There are some moments in the film that I do find funny. There is a scene where a car explodes and is shot up into the air, then it lands on the crazy job interviewer from earlier in the film. I find that funny because it's so unexpected. Overall, Postal isn't the worst movie ever, but it's not good. There are some good aspects that ALMOST redeem it, but the ridiculously complicated plot, mostly terrible acting, cringy moments, and unnecessary scenes, such as the bank shooting make the movie worse than it should be. It is a good adaptation of Postal 2, with the main characters, terrorists, exaggerated action, and Krotchy dolls. That's my thoughts on Postal, I'd like to hear yours as well.

gegen-wind With his extreme skilled sense for social grievances he surgically exhumes the corps of the rotten society and bares it on the altar of a theatrum anatomicum for the audience. His tools are the blood dripping splatter effects as well as the pitch black sarcasm. He explains in every possible detail the many pieces of the socially constructed fallacies of this decayed carcass of human society and puts together all the interacting body parts. By these pictures, the audience is forced to assess its own construction of reality and - like the man character does - rudely wakes up from a nightmare. Boll shakes and wakes every one of us with his pictures and scenes and like impressionistic art it is up to us to either use this glimpse of wakefulness in order to evolve to Homo Zarathustra or to suppress the uncomfortable awareness by just whingeing about the corners and edges, Boll set up intentionally.

nitinjain2285 Although Rotten Tomatoes has given this movie a rating of just 8% and its rating on IMDb is 4.4, but I still made an effort to watch this movie. And I rue the day on which I saw this disgusting movie. I was flabbergasted to see how bad a movie can be. This movie has broken all records of being a bad movie. I mean how can a sane person make such a movie. Please save your time and do not watch this godforsaken movie. Your life would be lot better if it is without the impression of this waste of a movie in it. From direction to acting to storyline, all things in this movie combine perfectly to make this movie more and more pathetic. Never ever in my life have I seen such a bad, bad, bad movie.

tonigenilmanda It's like the fifth or sixth time I watch this movie, and every time I discover something new going on the background. And every time I watch it I certainly wonder how this movie can be rated following what seems to be the "Uwe Boll standard".I don't know anything about the rest of his movies; that game-to-film adaptation thing is definitely not my cup of tea. A film adaptation of "Street Fighter"?... come on, how can you be disappointed, what the f--- did you expect? Fortunately, I didn't know Postal was a video game.Its opening scene is a really good presentation card. The movie is brilliant. It's not on the artsy side of movie-making, sure, but it's really fun and clever. In fact, I think it's the only actually clever movie regarding all what came in the aftermath of the 9/11 events. No dramatization, no misplaced patriotism, just a witty look on all that came after: the media circus, the religious fanaticism, the shadows over the Bush administration... come on, he even pokes fun on the, let's say, "German legacy".So no, Uwe Boll may be the worst whatever in the world but this movie is not the usual trash, is not the usual Hollywood trash and definitely is no trash at all.Jihad!!
