Audience Member Even big budget comedies fall flat more often than I'd like to admit, but I enjoyed the heck out of "Hey Mr. Postman." It had such a sincere feeling to it. You could definitely tell the director/filmmakers cared a great deal about the project. The jokes were solid and there were some really nice performances. Nice pace and a really fun set of characters with some nice world building (loved the community). Def worth checking out! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie from new to the scene writer Brian Berry was FUNNY. AS. HELL. I happened to get invited to the screening on Wilshire several months ago. The entire audience was laughing from start to finish! A must see. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member With Hey Mr. Postman, writer/producer Brian Berry does what's mandatory but nearly impossible in indie comedy: He manages to fully replace a crowded boardroom of six-figure writers by delivering hilarious and warming comedy at a major studio level. From wire-to-wire, Hey Mr. Postman is one of those rare, consistently laugh-out-loud films. Berry and director Mike Berry - who almost inexplicably aren't related - could've taken a great Everyman script and hosed it with average casting. But with each role, they knew exactly who and what was required for these uniquely written characters. As Brian Lincoln, Walter Franks anchors it down as the Postman in question; he's fired from another job early on, and with that inciting incident begins his comedic road to redemption...by way of the post office, of course, and a subplot that has a bit of drama to counterpoint the slapstick. Franks is complemented in grand style by some phenomenal and bigger-than-life character sketches (a favorite was the over-the-top employee trainer who takes his post office job no less seriously than drill sergeant Louis Gossett Jr. did in An Officer And A Gentleman). These folks aren't just there to deliver gags; each has purpose in advancing this fun and funny-as-hell story, and each gives the film a ton of memorable and distinguishing dimension. Because it's massively entertaining, Hey Mr. Postman deserves the type of advocacy that an indie comedy must have to break from a pack of lesser imitators. Here's hoping Brian Berry and his group find that initial wave of viewers who can then stump for this great comedy and push it out word-of-mouth to the masses, who will be all the better for having seen this one.
