In 2013 there are no highways and no dreams of a better tomorrow - only scattered survivors across what was once the United States. Into this apocalyptic wasteland comes an enigmatic drifter with a mule, a knack for Shakespeare and something yet undiscovered the power to inspire hope.
Kevin Costner directs and plays a wayfarer in a world where might makes right - but destined to lead a heroic rebellion where right makes might. Sweeping battle scenes, breathtaking wilderness vistas and touching moments of personal triumph combine to ensure "The Postman delivers"!

Post-Apocolyptic Chick-flick for a good night in

This is Costners follow on film, after the success of "Dances with wolves". It tries hard to be a action film, but it does lack something ACTION. I found this to be quite a slow moving film, and it went on for 2hrs 30mins.
Based on one mans search for his personal utopia, after America has been ravaged by a plague.
At least my other half enjoyed it, and whatever makes her happy, is fine with me. So if you would enjoy a reasonably good film, that has a slow moving plot, this may be just the film for you.
Another Costner disappointment.

Kevin Costner made "Dances With Wolves", which was a half decent film. Since then, it all went one way for him, downhill! I suppose The Postman is'nt his worst film though, the worst must be "A perfect World" where he even magaged to drag down Clint Eastwood to his level. The Postman is a film to watch on a rainy sunday afternoon, when you are really pushed for something to do.
Postman- Quality

Although this is long film, it works better than the other post apocalyptic films, it has humour and sadness. The ending works as a fell good movie.
