"Deliriously tasteless Postal may be, but it is also, to borrow a phrase from one of its minor characters, 'the place where laughter died.'"  Eye for Film  Anton Bitel

2/5
"Indeed, Postal is THAT kind of movie, one that substitutes rancor for real wit, that utilizes splatter when a few script rewrites would have worked much better."  PopMatters  Bill Gibron

D-
"Uwe Boll is the epitome of a hack director who thinks that putting an Osama impersonator and a George Bush lookalike together in a scene will automatically make some comic impression. It just made me sleepy."  ColeSmithey.com  Cole Smithey

3/5
"It’s not perfect and will get on the nerves of the more opinionated critics out there, but it’s such an insanely fun ride that most of its flaws are forgivable."  Film Threat  Jeremy Knox

1.5/4
"Fearlessness isn't inherently funny: Postal's touches of wit are lost in the flying body parts, gross-out gags, and the full frontal spectacle of Foley's no-longer-private parts."  TV Guide's Movie Guide  Maitland McDonagh

"Boll mistakes shock for satire and crudity for cleverness in this desperately unfunny, hopelessly clueless catalogue of the ills of America... that ends up rejoicing in what it believes it is sending up."  Flick Filosopher  MaryAnn Johanson

0/4
"Having already demonstrated the worst that the horror, action and fantasy genres have to offer, Uwe Boll tries his hand at political/cultural satire with Postal and comes up with something smelling awfully similar to feces."  Slant Magazine  Nick Schager

1/5
"Imagine what "Catch-22" might have been like if it had been written by that creepy grade-school classmate of yours who was always talking about how cool it would be to stick a cherry bomb under that dead squirrel he found on the side of the road"  eFilmCritic.com  Peter Sobczynski

2/5
"From the scoring and lighting to the acting and editing, the thing wouldn't earn a passing grade from even the most lenient film professor at the chintziest community college."  Cinematical  Scott Weinberg
