Postman Pat (Movie)
Postman Pat a humble and beloved postman, lives an idyllic life in the charming village of Greendale with his wife Sara and his young son Julian. But when new Special Delivery Service (SDS) employee Edwin Carbunkle, obsessed with efficiency, hatches a plot to take over the SDS, Pat’s plans to take his wife on a ‘proper honeymoon’ to Italy topple. Removing the kindly Postal CEO, and installing a workforce of robot postmen, are at the heart of Carbunkle’s evil scheme.
Meanwhile after viewing an episode of You’re The One, a TV talent contest, Pat decides to compete for the grand prize, which includes a recording contract and, as fate would have it, a trip to Italy! Pat is a singing sensation, (singing voiced by Ronan Keating) and emerges as a finalist to compete at the big finale in London. Along the way, Pat falls prey to the trappings of fame and fortune and becomes an unwitting pawn in Carbunkle’s dastardly plot. Will Pat’s sudden turn in the spotlight cost him the very things that he holds dearest: his family, his friends and his job? Only time and fate will tell…!
Feedback/Comments
Very cute. Brings back memories of when I watched Postman Pat as a young child. Great to see that my eight year old son enjoyed it as much as I used to.
Postman Pat is a lovely gentle television show, but this seems to have been forgotten by the creators of this film. There are dastardly deeds and the robot Pats and Jess terrified my 4 year old, who ended up in my lap in tears! That aside, it is generally an enjoyable film but definitely for older children. There is the necessary upper level humour to keep adults entertained and the music is catchy. It is even genuinely moving at times.
Great family entertainment
