Going Postal does a lot of stuff right (good script, great cast.) and didn't have any major faults.

Hogfather was good, but it could have done with a bigger budget, and Colour of Magic/The Light Fantastic have their weaknesses in book form and the movie didn't really make up for that (and I didn't agree with some of the casting choices). Overall, this is my favorite Discworld adaptation so far. This topic is currently marked as 'dormant'the last message is more than 90 days old.

And of course, Sir Terry himself has a cameo appearance.

He was a bit too stereotype villain, dressed all in black and his parrot was missing. Reacher Gilt probably deviated most from his description in the book, or perhaps I just always imagined him as a bit more colourful character. Charles Dance did a solid job as Vetinari, but I'd still favor some other actors in the role (Alan Rickman for example would be great). Richard Coyle was very good as Moist and Claire Foy was absolutely brilliant as Adora Dearheart. I still think the golems and especially the banshee were a bit rubbish, but overall the costume and set designers did a great job (There are a lot of little details, that only someone who has read the books would spot). The fact that they didn't need as many special effects as in Hogfather or Colour of Magic probably did the movie a lot of good, since those first two movies seemed a bit cheaply made at times. I loved the eccentric characters and their quirky names reminded me of those that Dickens would have come up with. Ive only see one of the Potter films but Id have to say that thats an apt description.
So, did anyone watch it? I just finished the second part and really liked it. Charlie Dance described Going Postal as a cross between Dickens and Harry Potter.
