Paul Blart: Mall Cop

Safety never takes a holiday!

My first 2009 movie and I laughed plenty! Kevin James returns to the big screen but this time in a pure comedy that’s fun for everyone!

James plays Paul Blart, a Mall Cop with hypoglycemia. He wants to be a New Jersey State Trooper but runs out of sugar energy before he can ever make it. So, he continues his day job, very seriously, at the Mall as a Security Officer. (You may have heard the controversy in the biz about Security Guard and Security Officer? No? You will)

Jayma Mays plays Amy, the girl of Paul’s dreams (you may remember her from Heroes). Then, it all hits the fan. A group of bad guys take over the Mall while Blart gets stuck inside without realizing it. Hilarity ensues as this comedy “Die Hard” knock off really takes off.

James is hilarious and has never been funnier. Jamal Mixon is pretty funny too. (he’s the larger gentlemen in the flame shirt) Everyone else isn’t all that funny but they do well in their roles to support the main funny man in Kevin James. James helped write the movie and with the backing of Adam Sandler’s film company, Happy Madison, it’s no secret why this film was great.

So if you like Adam Sandler movies and you think Kevin James is funny, then you’ll want to GO see this movie. You’ll laugh, a lot. I did and I can’t see any reason why you wouldn’t. Good times for all.

Until next time, slop some more peanut butter on your pie and watch out for those Critical Hits!
