Going Postal: The Legacy Foretold

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.

Going Postal: The Legacy Foretold takes one of the most controversial video game franchises ever and give us a look into how and why the developers continued to persist despite everything working against them. It's a portrait of underdogs who don't care what everyone thinks of them and who will do anything to continue doing what they love. It's rambunctious, it's out of pocket, it's hilarious, and it's human. This was a great documentary and it comes highly recommended to anyone looking to understand more about the history of the video game industry, but moreover anyone who has any interest in social commentary or a story about the human spirit to persevere.

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.

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)

"Going Postal" takes a deep dive into the question of whether or not violent video games lead to real world violence. Told by narrators whom I find myself rooting for through every uphill challenge. While I personally believe video games do not cause violence, each new edition of Postal challenges my views with the game's evolving graphics and play mechanics.

The animation featured in the film is both engaging and visually appealing, keeping the viewer entertained with humorous anecdotes. The music in the film does its part to immerse you into the changing atmosphere of each new chapter of the story.

I highly recommend this film to not only video game lovers, but viewers that want to watch a geniunly great film.
