Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
Taha Avalos The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
Julian Fenix I took my four year old boy to watch Postman Pat and while it was a show I used to enjoy laughing at as a teenager I really wasn't expecting much from this movie. Needless to say I was blown away with the hilarity that ensued. My son was also enthralled for most of the movie (ok he got a little restless during the middle but soon again was glued to it as the movie kicked into overdrive). The others in the movie theater with me were also laughing and obviously enjoying this rollicking crazy tall story. I also did not hear any frightened kids crying or screaming for mercy. Anyone who says it is too scary for children must have VERY sheltered children, or no sense of humor (actually probably both). My boy was fine, afterward said it was a tiny bit scary but he kept telling me for the rest of the day how it was an awesome movie and how much he loved it (and no I am not a deadbeat dad who lets his kids watch horror movies or anything). Perhaps some of these people should take up being Amish or only watch re-runs of Sesame Street, or old Disney cartoons - although they probably think they are too violent as well). As for the plot, I personally loved it. Far fetched? Yes. Silly? Yes. A complete removal from reality? Yes. I mean the film makers obviously just said 'stuff it, its a kids movie who cares?' I certainly didn't, it was a ripper. Rather than tearing holes in the plot (which I usually do to great delight) I found myself applauding the filmmakers complete ability to just make a great kids movie that had me laughing at holes rather than poking my finger through them. Amazing. --- minor spoilers follow--- Any movie that has a legion of robot Postman Pats trying to take over the world for an evil corporation and a robotic Jess that shoots laser beams out of it's eyes gets my adoration as well as my approval! Looking forward to the DVD. Best kids movie I have seen since The Lego Movie and Megamind. Just awesome. 10 out of 10.
pears1975 The animation is very clever and the film starts off OK but quickly deteriorates. Why did they have to take a friendly, funny and kind character that my 5 year old has come to love, and transform him into a scary, red eyed monster which had my son hiding behind the sofa. At one point one of the Jess bots looks like something from Terminator. Not what I would have chosen as entertainment for my son just before he tries to go to sleep at night. I am afraid I couldn't recommend showing this film to young children. I felt let down that they had changed these well loved characters beyond recognition. One of it's only saving points were the few scenes that made me laugh, but I don't think my son understood the humour.
Ilias Manos Both my son and I, anticipated for the movie as we have loved the series, but after watching it, got let down. It has a rather OK "starting point" for the storyline, which consumes all movie with, and just finishes all well out of sudden. More like 5 min intro, 75 min gap and 5 min happy ending. Most annoying part was that this movie is rated universal by both MPAA and BBFC, something rather questionable, considering a whole theater of 4 and 5yo crying because one of the most peaceful and kind heroes, turned into a big bad mean monster for 70+ minutes, letting every parent to explain what's up. Nothing to do with the series, completely different feeling, mentality and atmosphere. 3* max.
Reinier De Vlaam I saw this movie with my 4 year old, his first real movie experience, and a disappointing one. At home he loves the postman pat short movies so he was excited to go and see this one. Now he is an always happy kind of guy and sat through the movie. But the excitement was quickly gone I noticed.Simply too much references to adult-world kind of things like ... got talent, work problems, etc etc that are outside his world. It simply lasted too long.At the end he was more interested in the different flavors popcorn then the movie. Too bad, missed opportunity
