Unlike other terrible Uwe Boll horrorfests, I actually appreciated a lot of the humour, and found it adequately paced to boot. At least, I was seriously entertained for the time I was in the theater, which is about the most anybody could ever expect from an Uwe movie. Oh, and there are some clever homages people who actually played Postal may catch onto. I am now finished destroying my internet persona in praise of an Uwe Boll movie. It's most definitely worth a drunken rental, anyhow. I also saw it at Fantasia, but I actually liked it.

It's clearly not a good movie, and even less of a great movie. Uwe Boll is a peculiar character, and especially in this movie, his crudeness have some redeeming values. It's stupid and un-PC, but I've had quite a few laughs. Actually, the video game itself was in itself more interesting than good, and the movie clearly wants the same effect. There's something creepily attractive about witnessing Boll's irreverencious (irrelevant?) "political" movie... It was somewhat entertaining, but not good. A strong 2 stars rating. ** SPOILER ** The movie features Uwe Boll being shot ... ... in the crotch. ** END SPOILER ** I’ve already seen the movie last year, at fantasia fest (http://fantasiafestival.com/2007/), with Uwe Boll presenting the whole thing.
