It becomes immediately apparent that Costner, despite his Oscar-winning talent behind the camera, has delivered an absolute turkey with this film he not only directs but also stars as the title character, a misfortune the film has to suffer through as the indignity of the man’s ego forces cringeworthy moment after cringeworthy moment upon a rapidly unwilling audience. Those hopes for a film of at least some kind of entertaining quality were soon dashed, however, once The Postman started. Having never seen The Postman until now, I was keen to find out if the initial critical lambasting the film received was warranted or misplaced famously, the film snagged a win in every category it was nominated for at that year’s Razzie Awards, including Worst Picture and Worst Director, so I didn’t have high hopes. From late 80’s success in Bull Durham and Field of Dreams, to dominating the entire 1990’s with critical and commercial success like Dances With Wolves, JFK, Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves, The Bodyguard, Thirteen Days and 3000 Miles To Graceland, as well as monumental box-office bombs such as Waterworld (which has since become a cult classic) and The Postman, the latter an ill-conceived and executed production based on David Brin’s book of the same name, Costner staked his claim as one of the preeminent stars of the period. Synopsis: A nameless drifter dons a postman’s uniform and bag of mail as he begins a quest to inspire hope to the survivors living in post-apocalyptic America.įor at least a decade or more, Kevin Costner was the definitive Hollywood darling.
