Reviews are now in for Uwe Boll's latest masterpiece, though the critics apparently haven't comprehended Mr. Boll's delicate and effortless talents as a top-notch director. He's so misunderstood, much like Kubrick. While he's attained a whopping 16% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, some might argue that's 16% too much. Some highlights include:

This movie's about as dangerous (or as funny) as a mouthy, caffeinated teen punk from the suburbs who just saw his first s***-flinging GG Allin performance on YouTube. - Village Voice

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

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

Only a handful of critics truly appreciate Boll's gifts as a director, namely Prairie Miller of NewsBlaze, who opines:

Along the way to its parking lot showdown, a wacky property damage conspiracy to commit insurance fraud is uncovered between Osama and Bush. The darker, zany recesses of America as viewed from the Twilight Zone. Move over, Borat.

That's right....move over Borat!
