Postal fails to impress

In a move that should surprise no one, Uwe Boll’s latest game-adapted opus, Postal, has been met with some harsh reviews. According to the New York Times, the film is “Infantile, irreverent and boorish to the max” and features jokes that span the range from “tasteless” (9/11 gags) to “tired” (“jokes about Oprah’s diet and indecisive Starbucks customers”).

Aww, is anyone surprised? As the resident (self-appointed) Boll film expert, I can’t say there’s anything really remarkable to see here, just terrible filmmaking. I personally think his 2006 BloodRayne was his pinnacle (in that “so bad its good” way), and I can’t imagine that a film he made to be intentionally funny could ever succeed.
