Review of Postal (2007) by Sylvester K — 04 Aug 2014
Director Uwe Boll is best-known for adapting video games into bad, but money-making, films; Boll's take on the video game Postal -- which, as a game, followed a deranged postal employee as he went on a killing spree -- is a funny satire that feels overstuffed and deeply offensive but in an okay way.
Postal tries to shoot for the anything-goes lunacy of South Park, but it doesn't have the social commentary or good-heartedness of South Park; Postal may be trying for the social satire of the sharp, savvy Borat or the fierce Fight Club, and it's much better than Uwe Boll's other films, considering that most of them are fluffy mountains of crap.
