An hour and a half and this might have made a decent movie, but at three hours the pacing is a crawl and the film difficult to sit through without losing interest.

Kevin Costner's second post-apocalypse movie in the same number of years after WATERWORLD is a real yawner of a film, simply because the limited story does not fill three hours of screen time. Reviewed by Leofwine_draca 4 / 10 Would have been a good film at half the length And just as in the film, our best defense is solid communication and joint action by those who are the real defenders of family values and individual rights.ДЄ superb film in all ways. The film can be said to have anticipated the rise of the Tea Party and other usurpers of cooperation and compromise, who seek to break our civilized norms down in order to recreate the society in their own authoritarian image.

Not only Costner, but the entire cast, are outstanding, and the rise of authoritarians on the right in the USA and abroad shows just how sinister is the idea of a copier salesman with delusions of grandeur. The society fragments and falls into survival mode, not from political motives, but because it is simply impossible to organize on any scale without the means of communication offered by something as humble and basic as snail mail - delivered if necessary on foot and by horseback, just as was in fact done in the past. It creates its post-apocalypse world without exaggeration and assigns it a direct cause - not radioactivity or plague, but disconnectedness, lack of communication. That's good enough for me.Д«ut in fact, as a lover both of science fiction in general, and of those stories with a vast sweep involving the entire society, particularly apocalypse stories, I found the film outstanding in all ways, even deeply touching, at the first and all subsequent viewings. Not only did he think the film was an excellent effort, he and Costner collaborated on the moral message the story was meant to convey, and Brin himself was 'ecstatic' with Costner playing his hero. Who, you ask, is David Brin? He is a renowned writer of science fiction who authored the book on which the film is based.

However, he reluctantly becomes a symbol of hope to the townspeople there who begin to remember the world that once was and giving them the courage to stand up to a tyrannical warlord and his army. He decides to pose as a postman and deliver the mail to a nearby town, bluffing that the United States government has been reinstated and tricking the town into feeding him. An unnamed wanderer retrieves a Postman's uniform and undelivered bag of mail.
