After six years of keeping our malls safe, Paul Blart has earned a well-deserved vacation. He heads to Vegas with his teenage daughter before she heads off to college. But safety never takes a holiday and when duty calls, Blart answers (www.imdb.com).
Director: Andy Fickman (The Game Plan, She's the Manx)
Cast: Kevin James, Raini Rodriguez, Neal McDonough
Expect more of the same light, inoffensive antics in Kevin James' second outing as the buffoonish security guard. Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2's supposed to be fun-filled entertainment for the whole family. In respects, it is, depending on what you're looking for. The plot's very straightforward, the acting incredibly goofy. Its intentions are to be as flippant as possible. Blart's a loveable character, just not overly funny. He's as real a character as you're ever going to get. His short-term wife leaves him, his grand-mother befalls an unfortunate accident... life has taken a downward turn. So off to Vegas he goes with his daughter (Rodriguez). Duty calls when a heist takes place at the casino they're staying at. To some this will be comedy gold, to others a complete waste of time. Mall Cop 2, just like the first, relies too much on Kevin James' clumsiness. It's not as funny the 17th time round.
2.5/5
