Postal
Some comedies go too far... others start there.
In the ironically named city of Paradise, a recently laid-off loser (Zack Ward) teams up with his cult-leading uncle (Dave Foley) to steal a peculiar bounty of riches from their local amusement park; somehow, the recently arrived Taliban have a similar focus, but a far more sinister intent.

Dedicated to all things politically correct.... - RobBC
Director Uwe Boll sets out to offend as many people in as little time as possible in this vulgar attack on all things politically correct. And God bless him! Despite being a rather ham-fisted attempt at satire, it is based on a video game after all, Boll nevertheless succeeds in lampooning some of America’s more endearing quirks. From gun culture and coffee culture to right-wing nut cases and conspiracy theorists, he manages to place all his stereotypes in a row and then blows them away one by one. It begins with an outrageously inappropriate spoof of 9/11, ends with a surprisingly surreal vision of nuclear armageddon and in between we are treated to some very wicked scenes involving Asian drivers, Arab fanatics, black cops and cheap white trash. Boll himself has a cameo as the proprietor of “Little Germany”, a nazi-themed amusement park, while guest star Verne Troyer shows off his little electric dildo before being gang-raped by a mob of manic monkeys. George Bush and Osama Bin Laden lookalikes figure prominently, and Canada’s own Dave Foley is shown full frontal scratching his sack and taking a dump. It’s crass, sacrilegious, and repugnant to the extreme. Personally I laughed my head off, but don’t blame me if you decide to rent it. You’ve been warned...More for the fans of the game - Blob
I quite enjoy the Postal 2 game, and the first time watching this it was pretty good. Really dumb in an over the top kinda way. I am not sure how much of a joy this would be to non fans.
That being said, I watched it again after quite a while and could hardly stay awake.Revel in the absurdity! - KeithTalent
This movie was so utterly absurd, so completely over-the-top with its stupidity, that I kind of liked it. The script is horrible, the dialogue is ludicrous, but I found myself lauighing at the ridiculousness so often that I actually had a good time. It almost feels wrong rating this Uwe Boll movie 3 stars, but I can't help it, I enjoyed this stupid thing.
