I will agree with Vincent P that it hardly captures the agony that makes the main character go postal. Many subtile visual "jokes" will probably be missed by many if only seen once which is a shame.

After reading dozens of reviews of Uwe Boll films, I was pretty uncertain if I ever wanted to watch a film of his. This guy's films seem to be so bad and his attitude seems to childish that you simply don't want to have ANYTHING WHATSOEVER toAfter reading dozens of reviews of Uwe Boll films, I was pretty uncertain if I ever wanted to watch a film of his. This guy's films seem to be so bad and his attitude seems to childish that you simply don't want to have ANYTHING WHATSOEVER to do with him.

Nevertheless, "Postal" got many remarkably positive reviews and I found the trailer quite interesting so I decided to give this film a chance. I expected some lowbrow American over-the-top junk like "American Pie" or "Hot Shots", but this film actually turned out to be far, far superior to those.

Offending women, Muslems, Jews, Nazis, Christians and pretty much anyone else who has an opinion with his ****-off attitude, Uwe Boll manages to bring over-the-top humor to a level never witnessed before. While the humor varies from highly questionable tot utterly hilarious, the lesser jokes are easily ignored due to the film's fast pacing and solid editing. Also, we find a criticism of American society that goes way beyond anything major Hollywood studios would dare to publish.... and while extremely cynical, it is entirely to the point.

As a comedy, I found nothing to dislike about this film. I would have given it a 10, but the toilet humor level of some of the jokes force me to take one step back and give it a 9. Nevertheless, I can highly recommend this comedy for anyone who doesn't get offended too easily.... If Boll's other films are really that bad, I suggest he sticks with comedy.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. When I first heard about this movie on a "Top 10 worst movies based on video games" list I was expecting some kind of cheesy movie. If you like the over the top violence from the Postal games combined with South Park comedy then you've got to watch this film! This film also has great effects, Perfect actors which fit their roles nicely and a crazy ending. The only downside I have about this film is that when there was some weird cult wanting to take over the world followed up by monkeys banging a midget? But what comes up next after that kind of apologises you for what crap was just displayed. I would have to give this film 9 out of 10 due to the over the top action, funny moments which hold up the film, Offensive to each and everyone you can think of which is somehow funny, and also the great acting and special effects Expand

Good fun/funny film, not meant to be taken serious. It reflect the humour of the game Postal 2 perfectly. Whilst, raising a lot of serious issues about religion, commercialism and society.

Uwe Boll made an excellent movie. I don't know how. Disgustingly funny, brutal satire of everything from the war on terror to Uwe Boll's ruining of video games.

Disgustingly funny, brutal satire of everything from the war on terror to Uwe Boll's ruining of video games. There are a few ultra-cheesy/campy moments (excessive mugging and a cheesy line) that should've been cut, but they're about 20 seconds total. The rest? Pure gold, as long as you can handle full-frontal Dave Foley nudity. Maybe Boll's finally found his milieu. I still haven't forgiven him for Alone In The Dark, but a couple more films like Postal and I might consider it. Well worth the couple bucks. Expand

Uwe Boll finally made a great film based on game. Even with elements borrowed from "Postal 2", the film have faithful with the franchise, filled with sexual jokes, Osama "look a like" appearance, and controversies between game and movie.

Probably the only Uwe Boll movie that is actually good. Let alone, a faithful adaptation of a video game no doubt.

But I personally adore this movie, not only because it's based on my favorite game ever, Postal 2. Uwe Boll tried making a horrible movie to fight all the hate with something no human could like, but for what the movie was built to be, it's pretty okay. It's meant to be a comedy, and the whole point of a comedy is to make you laugh at any cost, in which it succeeds with its dark humor. Though with its flaws this movie is still one of my favorite movies. Expand

I don’t care what the **** you have to say. It’s POSTAL I don’t know what you were expecting but I love this movie to death. Though I don’t think Zack Ward really gives off postal dude vibes, I like him so it’s okay.
