Chicago - Movie Reviews Postal

Uwe Boll remains on the critics' firing line with his latest film,
Postal. Bill Stamets in the Chicago Sun-Times writes: "Accusing
Postal of bad taste gives it too much credit. Shock calls for craft that
Boll lacks." Writing in the New York Times, Nathan Lee calls the movie
"infantile, irreverent and boorish to the max." In the Los Angeles
Times, Mark Olsen comments that Boll "creates such a bizarre, garish
spectacle that it is almost tempting to give him credit for being something of
a misunderstood artist after all. Almost, but not quite. Postal is
largely just a byproduct of Boll's self-promotion, rendering the film itself,
in essence, beside the point." Michael Harris in the Toronto Globe and Mail
can barely disguise his contempt for the film. "This reviewer is not easy
to offend, but is very easy to bore," he remarks. "And I was bored out of my
tree for most of Boll's lamely conceived, cliché-ridden debacle."
