Going Postal: The Legacy Foretold

I been a postal fan for a while now and I am excited that I got to watch this documentary. I been hyped with the annoying that postal would be getting a documentary and love seeing the teaser trailers. I also love seeing Mike J and Vince talking about their experiences with postal. Of course there are youtube video going into the history of postal but none of them really deep drive into the starting of running with scissors as a company and the impact that postal had in the world of 1997. To me this is one of the best ways to learn more about running with scissors and postal over the 25 years they have existed for.(Username:AaronR-701)

This review will be both characteristics listed in the title of this review. I worked on this film for a bit, and I can't believe or describe how happy I personally am with the final outcome. Tad and Jason put out a film that captures every bit of absurd fun that I experienced in filming Vince, Mike, JSJ, Mike Hunter and the rest. From Pax East in Boston (right as COVID was being announced), to LA filming Miss Carter Cruise and Mister Zack Ward, Tad and Jason put together a film that consolidates 5 years of madness into 2 hilarious and enthralling hours. Go watch it. Bring your kids.

Go kidnap someone else's if you don't have your own. It's wildly entertaining. The kids, regardless of whose they are, will enjoy it. You will love it.

But that didn't mean I would love it let alone remotely enjoy it. That said, Jason and Tad did an amazing job telling our story. It's fun and funny, sad and aggravating but the story of POSTAL is all of those things. Despite living through all of this insanity, it's wild to see it all told sequentially with such elegance. Cheers to the animators and entire production staff at Playtest for the job they did on this film. Make sure you go check out the games on PC, PlayStation or Switch. Tell yer friends and tell yer family. Prepare yourself, regret nothing and WATCH THIS FILM! GOING POSTAL is a 10/10!

Alright so in my honest opinion this is the absolute most comprehensive and well put together documentary about postal that I've ever seen the editing, writing, and cinematography were absolutely top tier it's beautiful to see where this franchise has gone and it's only moving up I personally really loved the scenes of the kid growing up playing the postal games as it reminds me of me. Another thing I really enjoyed was seeing a lot of the merch and old advertising material used to promote the games it's a nice bit of history (in all fairness the whole documentary is the history but you get what I mean haha) honestly I just love seeing anything from Mike J and Vince desi they created the greatest company? Gaming studio? Not sure which to call it haha but it really is beautiful seeing the history.

Ok, I'll admit, I'm very biased towards anything related to POSTAL, so my ten star rating is definitely skewed by that. But I found this docimentary really amazing and it really does show the history of POSTAL really well. I watched it with my brother, and we both had an amazing time watching it together. I'm such a big fan of this franchise, even though i'm very new to it, and I'm so glad I had the chance to learn through this movie. I'm running out of things to say to hit the minimum required limit but I truly did love this movie and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone interested in the topic.
