Paul Blart: Mall Cop
Safety Never Takes a Holiday
Paul Blart (Kevin James) is a single, suburban dad trying to make ends meet as a security officer at a New Jersey mall. It's a job he takes very seriously, though no one else does.
When Santa's helpers at the mall stage a coup, shutting down the megaplex and taking hostages (Paul's daughter and sweetheart among them), Jersey's most formidable mall cop will have to become a real cop to save the day.

Kevin James stars. He is still unexpectedly athletic for a fat guy. The plot, unfortunately, was pretty dumb. A girl who freakishly conforms to current physical standards, like a living Barbie, was the love interest. And she wasn't just physically out of his range, she was decades younger, and much nicer and smoother, while he continuously made an ass of himself. Meanwhile unarmed super–jumping (with special effects!) ‘free runners’ and ‘parkour’ experts were the terrifying criminals. It was kind of a spoof of Die Hard, with a funny spot where he dresses his own wounds with a hello–kitty band–aid. But hell, we just love Kevin James, and found ourselves charmed and amused.Paul Blart: Mall Cop - TheWiz
When my Daughter pointed and sharply proclaimmed, "Daddy, rent that! It's soooo funny", half of my face hit the floor. First Vampires and now this!!!
I love my Girls and so I clicked on ZIP.
Everyday my Girls run to the mail box to see what movies have arrived and what we'll be watching after supper before bed time.
"It's here! Mall Cop!" The other side of my face fell off as my Wife tried to console me.
You know what, this was a good family movie! The writers could have spent $1.50 to come up with an original ending; but hey, we're talking about a 9 and 13 year old who have yet to experience the repetitious B ending.
Would I go see this in a movie theatre and spend $50 - no way. But ZIP made it affordable and at this price, it's OK.
5 stars from the girls and 2 stars from Dad; we settled at 3.Paul Blart - BearCubs
I was not expecting great things from this movie, because the previews looked extremely stupid. However, my husband wanted to see it, and I ended up being surprised by it.
The movie had a number of funny moments, and while a bit corny and predictable, it was a nice underdog kind of film. I'm also a fan of Kevin James, and while it doesn't match up to King of Queens or his role in Hitch, his role in this movie was well cast.
