Paul Blart, Mall Cop

Overview
With parts similar to the movie “Get Smart”, Paul Blart is a guy who is looking for a woman who will love him as him. He runs into Amy, one of the kiosk workers, and it’s love at first site… when a group of thugs break into the mall, and take some people (including Amy) captive, Blart is still inside the mall. He ends up giving the police the information they need, and… well… no spoilers! :)

Plot?
Limited. The first 30 minutes and a minute before the credits are about as much plot as we get.
All “twists” aren’t really twists, as this movie is VERY predictable!
There are no complex characters.

COOLNESS FACTORS! :{)
Paul Blart riding that segway scooter… :)
The hair extensions
The tattoo

Moral Stuff
Well, the whole drunk scene
The love he has for his daughter, mother, and job
Lack of respect from the guy in the wheel chair and the lady with the handbag
Seriously? Not EVERYONE has a cell phone AND can text using said cell phone(yes, I think that should be under moral factors)
Not as dirty as the commercials make it seem

Stupid Stuff
Has anyone red the whole movie plot? Or lack thereof? It was a stupid movie in my opinion, but I watched as two kids cracked up repeatedly during the movie, so I guess it’s probably just not my (X-men, Lord of the Rings, Eragon) style.

  3. Like I said- a fun silly movie- good for one viewing, especially at home. Not necessary to pay theater prices for that one. :)
