Paul Blart: Mall Cop (2009)

Fresh and Exciting

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Mall Cop is lit af 100 100. I thought it was good when paul blart was on that sick scooter being a boss. Some people may say that Dark knight is the best action movie of all time but those people are dirty jews and probably don't even vape, there wasn't any good characters and hethe ledger was kinda garbage. The bad guy in mall cop was better and made me erect.

The type of physical humor perpetuated by Kevin James is worth a few good chuckles, to be sure. The trouble, though, is that it is only good for "X" many jokes.For a basic plot summary, "Mall Cop" focuses on Paul Blart (James), an overweight mall "security officer" who continually fails to become a true gun-toting policeman. Just when his life seems to be at the lowest, however, he is thrust into a high-pressure hostage situation that tests his mettle.The first thirty or so minutes of this film are legitimately funny, watching Blart blunder through situation after situation. James is an accomplished physical comedian who knows exactly how to comically move his oversized body.Yet, the jokes stop being funny in the second half, when the film gets a little too repetitive. Those same "fat jokes" that worked so well in the opener are old hat once the climax approaches.Thus, this is a decent little family-friendly comedy. It isn't great, but you'll genuinely laugh on more than a few occasions.

well, what can I say about this very good movie masterpiece? firstly, credit to Kevin James. If I believed in reincarnation, I would want to live my second life as either Kevin James or the very good movie masterpiece Paul Blart: Mall Cop itself. On Blu-Ray though, not DVD. There is at least 15 very very good jokes and scenes in this film & that is possible the most of any mall-based comedy-drama I have seen in the last decade. If there was an Oscar for "best very good movie masterpiece of the year", this would have won. If this movie masterpiece was a facebook post, I'd either react with a wow or a haha. The decision would be hard. I once watched the sequel with my friends and it wasn't as good. i fell asleep quickly, but woke up in time to see the scene with the swan or goose (can't remember which). Very good comedy gold and a good return to form for the series that reminded me of this very good movie masterpiece original! Could only be improved if lead role or main bad guy was played by Pierce Brosnan, or another ex-james bond actor such as "Sean Connery". Very good movie, very 10/10!

This "movie" is utter rubbish. I've seen "King of Queens", and always wondered how a fat waster like that got a reasonably attractive wife, but this movie just takes this to the extreme. Is this guy an actor? or just a fairground attraction. Hated it. Everything about this movie lets the viewer down. The attractive (goldie Hawn) lookalike girl, is nice, but, would she look twice at that fat idiot......NO. The daughter? the less said the better. The storyline is rubbish. It's as if they were just making a vehicle for Kevin James, to accelerate his career, I'M SORRY THEY FAILED. Got to make ten lines, so the film is rubbish rubbish rubbish rubbish rubbish rubbish rubbish rubbish rubbish rubbish rubbish rubbish rubbish.
