You don't watch many movies, I take it?

I don't have a problem with the concept but the movie is seriously very poorly executed.

Watch Redneck Zombies. Or Metalheads. Postal is Citizen *beep* Kane compared to Metalheads. But yeah, I know what you mean.

I've watched thousands of movies over the years and I have to say Postal (2007) is amongst one the worst I've ever seen...it's not quite as bad as Rampage (2009) or any of Ulli Lommel's movies but it's up there...the jokes weren't funny, the plot was non-existent, the set-ups for the jokes were predictable and if you're going go out of your way to offend people...at least have it be worth it. I despised this movie, not as much as Rampage (2009)...but it's close.

People tend to say "worst movie ever" to whatever bad movie they've just seen but even though it probably is not the worst movie ever Postal is definitely a terrible movie, what a waste of time, it's a shame to see David Foley in this.

It is a movie coming from a game... Play the game if you don't understand it.

I thought it was chaotic and fun. It is one of the few movies that I have seen in the last couple years that has actually made me laugh out loud.

I watched this last week and actually liked it. The only complaint I have is the music. They sound like they were taken from a 90s shoelance-budget porno. Other than that, Postal rocked. First watchable Boll movie and actually very good, I gave it 8/10

Blowing the head of an elderly Asian women to bits makes for good comedy. I found it very offensive.

This movie was sophomoric and juvenile. I probably could have watched this movie at some frat party back when I was in my 20's but I didn't and this movie is one of the worst of all time.

Offended? Your not in your twenties anymore and your offended by something? Think of the worst thing you can.................right now somewhere on the planet someone is doing something worse! I don't understand people who get offended by the stupid 5h!t other people are doing. First of all why do you care? Secondly how are they really effecting your life? Okay murder is one thing, but a third-rate movie? Thirdly, don't we live in America? Go read the first amendment before posting an unwarranted, "I'm offended" response. Yes this movie was sophomoric and juvenile...could you infer that the writers/creators of this movie intended it to be tongue in cheek? Also, no frat boy I know would have the intelligence required to even get this movie, and it's not hard to get. Anyway 4/10 for this movie. Far from the best...but an enjoyable sarcastic romp. If you watch a season or two of South Park, you'll be ready for anything...and offended by nothing.

I've seen most of uwe bolle's movies and I actually think this is the worst one. I've played both postal games and I don't think the movie captures what's in the games at all.
There were funny parts, but the game was no way near as stupid as this movie.

I really wanted to like this movie but there were only a few bits that made me chuckle. not laugh out loud like I wanted to,
I was kinda dissapointed. I love the postal games and to me this didnt make me laugh like the games did, I kinda found myself getting bored after the halfway mark.
But thats just my opinion.
(btw did anyone see the trailer for farcry! now THAT was utterly terrible, noone can tell me that looks good!)

Really? I thought it's Uwe Boll's best movie, but that's not saying much of course.

[–] wwwater 15 years ago

I couldn't agree more with the OP.

I wathed it for an hr and turned it off. This was definitely the worst movie I've seen ever. It's totally retarded and it's not funny at all. I didn't even smile let alone laugh. If I've know better I'd have saved that hour of my life.

Watch "Alone in the Dark". In a straitjacket. With your eyelids forced open. You'll change your mind.

Agree, "Alone in the Dark" was worse. So was "Leonard Part 6".

But that doesn't make this a good movie. I gave it 2 stars, because a coupla the jokes actually worked (perhaps unintentionally, lol).

Your reasoning is subtle, yet understanding and you bring so many reasons to the table why this movie suck.

Jeez, you're suck a loser troll. This movie is the best Boll movie out there, and quite funny at parts. Not saying much about his other ventures into the movie business, but he hit spot on with this one. It's as nonsical, random and ridiculous as the game where. And really, if you think this is the worst movie ever, you can't have seen many movies in your life.

i love this movie and i'm not afraid to defend it.

someone above said they had played both games, and the movie didnt capture the essence of the games...i disagree, in the original postal, the dude steps out his front door and guns down every single person he comes in contact with, is that so different from the film? gunning down religious fanatics and terrorists, pretty much the premise of the first game...postal 2 where you play the guy who did the voice of the postal dude, also called postal dude, terrorists in the sewers behind his house, in the back rooms of the local shops...militant preachers and damn me if i should forgot uncle dave and his merry bunch. the impression i'm getting here is a whole lot of people judging on face value, this plot...it makes no sense, oh that girl just so happens to have a gun, zomg avian flu, the dog...oh the dog, just appearing in the back seat of a police car...i could go on but its like trying to castrate yourself with a jam sandwich.

how would you move a mountain with only a spoon? slowly
if you were in a box, how would you think out of it? get out
what is the difference between a duck? ones shredded, fried and wrapped in a pancake the other is cooked in an orange sauce.

i regret nothing

I think Uwe intended the avian bird flu in the dolls to be a nod to the number of unsafe products that were being shipped to the United States from China at the time. Remember all those childrens toys that were recalled? It's mocking the standards China holds it's toy manufacturers to.

Except instead of products containing lead, mercury, or all sorts of other terrible *beep* they just put an entire vial of avian bird flu inside of it...

[–] Skibz777 15 years ago

I'm going to have to disagree with your theory, because it's the terrorists themselves who put the bird flu into the dolls to carry out their plan. It would have been more of a nod to the Chinese toy controversy (and come to think of it, it would have been funnier) if the terrorists were after the dolls because they ALREADY had bird flu in them.

reply

[–] Way_Cup 15 years ago

I'm pretty sure that the dolls were taken straight from the Chinese freighter to Little Germany...

I completely agree. My friends brought it over to watch with me- if I wasn't watching it with them, I would've turned it off after the first 10 minutes. It was horrible.

If the director is the worst actor in the film, than yeah, he should really helm more movies.

Definitely has a sense of humour. I kinda liked it. Guns, scantily clad female cult members and old guys talking about how they f¥€ked the Postal Dude's wife. Childish and fun.
