Same here.

Fantastic, Terry Pratchitt is a genius and this is a really good adaptation. A good one for the kids, definitely.

R.I.P Terry Pratchett, you are sorely missed.

In the UK it's called "Going Postal" and is based on the book of the same name by the late Terry Pratchett. It was released as a mini series by Sky in 2010. The beautiful Claire Foy, later to play the young Queen Elizabeth in the series "the Queen", is great in it.

LOVED David Suchet in Poirot and STILL LOVE HIM IN THIS Magnificent actor...

What an absolutely delightful and clever move and superior cast! Loved and enjoyed every moment. I take it to be a British production-they always know how to make great quality movies.

I love that Terry has the final word 😊

Bizarre steampunk-style fantasy comedy (?) but impossible not to become intrigued by the plot. Werewolves and vampires and golems? Oh my!

This is NOT the name of the movie - the REAL name is "Going Postal", from the Terry Pratchett universe of Discworld books. There are no opening or end credits given here. This is all an attempt to circumvent copyright laws, no doubt. The closing then opening credits appear in the middle when the two episodes naturally break. "GP" is currently playing on Peacock, fully intact, in the original 2 parts, under "Television". (It was released as a TV movie in Britain.) In this fantasy-romance-comedy, a con man is forced into becoming the city's postmaster in order to avoid the gallows. He gradually shifts his perspective as he learns of the consequences of his actions and how the woman he has fallen for was effected by his cons as well. This is an inventive story with a lot of charm. The production design is well maintained throughout - a mix of Victorian / Italianate styling with mostly Medieval technology polished by magic (the few Discworld films I've seen all evoke a similar mood). The score enhances the action; the editing is well done. I like the cast and now cannot picture anyone else in those roles. Apart from Dance and Suchet, the rest are new to me; performers I would not mind seeing more of. It is a lot of fun seeing David Suchet as a truly hateful and evil bad guy - instead of little grey cells, they are all tarry black cells! As a fan bonus, the author, Terry Pratchett, appears in a cameo at the end when he attempts to deliver a letter to Suchet's character.

This was a two-part miniseries titled “Going Postal”.

Terry Pratchett was the best. If I start feeling down I just grab some of his discworld books and I feel fine. I wish I could have told him how much I appreciate his work. Better than medicine for my depression that occasionally sneaks up on me. He was witty. And I learned real historical facts from his books. He created interesting characters you just wanted to know more about. I love all his books. I wish I could have thanked him.

this is a goofy entertaining movie. bit slow at times, but delivers...
