Non-PC Black Comedy

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This black comedy about a post office shooting by an emotionally disturbed employee is not just an atrocity story: it's a satire on post office policies and practices, made more powerful by very good acting. We see the stupidity of a bureaucracy in action in the hiring of a psychologist to bumble through the psyches of the employees, all the while doing more harm than good and finally succumbing to the disaster he'd been hired to prevent.

It's not politically correct because post office shootings are supposedly too serious for comedies, but the director made it work for people who are not uncomfortable tackling unusual subjects. Although a low-budget film, it has the quality of a good major production."

Not worth the shipping costs

"Somewhat entertaining and funny. I do not reccomend purchasing this DVD. I just purchased this movie and will try to sell it on this web site, however, I feel strongly enough to shoot my self (sale) in the foot. It moved slow, poor dialouge throughout and the humor is too quirky."
