"Postal" is an interesting case study. Another movie by the infamous Uwe Boll, this movie is clearly bad on purpose. While his other movie have attempted to take themselves seriously, with "Postal," Boll has decided to embrace his title as the worst living director out there, and has deliberately made a terrible movie with elements to offend everyone and make them hate him on purpose. It even opens with a scene that makes fun of 9/11 and United 93. I'm so not kidding about that. Yes, Boll has officially become the Tony Clifton of film directors.

And, I can't believe I'm saying this about an Uwe Boll film, but it's not as bad as I expected it to be. Don't get me wrong. It's still a terrible movie. But there's a certain charm to the self-deprecation Boll engages in (he actually appears as himself in the movie), and he does manage to capture the spirit of the game the movie it's based on, which itself terrible. In a way, it works to a point that I can't give the movie a bottom rating, although still a pretty low one. But it's interesting to see what happens when a filmmaker gives up on making "serious" movies, and says "Screw it! People already think our movies are terrible. Let's see how bad of a movie we can actually make."

Only recommended for people who want to see how bad a movie can be when it's bad on purpose.
