This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

Don't Believe the Hype

Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

With selfishness and meanness bombarding us in media, it is reassuring to be reminded that magnanimity always acts as a counterbalance. This Bulgarian gem's title is well chosen. The postman is a good man. As one of his poverty-stricken neighbors observes, the measure of a man is his goodness. It is also fitting measure of this movie.

So real and natural. Welcome to the Bulgarian villages, most of them looks exactly like this - no work, no young people, no good life... Tragedy, poverty and misery. Abandoned houses and deserted lands. But there a few remaining people still have a hearts, big hearts and always ready to help with anything! Even to share their slice of bread with you... :'(
