I still don't think the Kevin Costner movie looks very good but honestly the critics probably thought it was unbearably schmaltzy partly because they didn't think having to fight over the existence of a national postal service was a realistic apocalypse scenariohttps://twitter.com/drvolts/status/1253058201370505217 …

Costner said he was tempted to play the bad guy in The Postman because that's the "badass" role and the titular protagonist is intended as a loser antihero

He KEPT trying to be the "bad guy anti-hero" role. I can name 4 movies in the 1990s he tried. He can't do "dark" so he just looks like a dummy character or not one with much of an arc.

The movie had a point (the book was rather different but also kind of similar) about communication bonding people. But...you have to filter it through the lenses of men who know nothing about anthropology, sociology or actual history. It's a pastiche of cliches but it's fun?
