Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 (Starring Kevin James) Movie Review

[@shack8110]

When he ran into that glass and fell down, I laughed so hard I cried and peed my pants and laughed and laughed until the movie was over. I love it when people fall down. It's comedy gold.

[@BrockHardcastle]

I was dragged into this movie for my grandmas birthday, and everybody was laughing in the theater and I was sitting silent the whole time and if I wasn't with my family I would have walked out. This movie was awful. Just awful.

[@rterrell641]

Definitely top 3 movies all time

[@dorsk188]

0% on RT. I didn't think that was even possible.

[@PinkoJack]

dorsk188 oh its possible

[@dorsk188]

Michael Martinez After a quick Google search... I have to take issue with some of these. Jaws: the Revenge is bad, but it's not 0% bad. You're telling me that *not one* critic could give a "meh" to Highlander 2? I'd rather sit through those weird dumb movies a dozen times before subjecting myself to Age of Extinction (18%) again...

[@PinkoJack]

dorsk188 Not only are movies like Paul blart mall cop 2 or Age of extinction bad, but they are also forgettable which makes them doubly bad. Jaws the revenge and Highlander 2 are bad movies, but they are at least memorable.

[@xxFortunadoxx]

dorsk188 Getting a 0% on rotten tomatoes doesn't mean the movie scored a 0 out of 5 stars on every review. It means that it didn't get a 60% or higher on any of the reviews; which is good because the movie is a piece of trash on the order of Master of Disguise.

[@VicenteTorresAliasVits]

dorsk188 It's not that rare. However, it only really counts when the movie has enough reviews for a consensus: Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever 2002 One Missed Call 2008 Pinocchio 2002 A Thousand Words 2012 Superbabies: Baby Geniuses 2 2004 Strange Wilderness 2008 Bucky Larson: Born to Be a Star 2011 Jaws: The Revenge 1987 Return to the Blue Lagoon 1991 The Nutcracker in 3D 2010 Wagons East! 1994 3 Strikes 2000 Shadow Conspiracy 1997 Redline 2007 Staying Alive 1983 Homecoming 2009 Mac and Me 1988 Highlander 2: The Quickening 1991 Look Who's Talking Now! 1993 Merci Docteur Rey 2002 Killing Me Softly 2003 Reach Me 2014 A Low Down Dirty Shame 1994 Constellation 2005

[@Flow349]

The sequel that we'll never understand why it was a sequel

[@OriginalSin110]

Why all these weird camera angles?

[@user-hardbrain]

man now I really want to see reviews from JeremyJahns, Schmoesknow, and Chris Stuckmann about this movie. But I think they're smart enough to not see this.

[@blackrock316]

J.J. L. I thought one of them was going to review that movie and they did, but remember I think one of them went to star wars celebration.

[@smaakjeks]

J.J. L. Not to mention Red Letter Media.

[@speedy3702]

J.J. L. That's not necessary. The movie has 0% on Rotten Tomatoes out of 37 reviews!

[@blackrock316]

Pedro Gonçalves should we be surprise about that?? I mean I was expecting it to be 10%

[@SuperKede]

The one thing I hate about them is it feels like if one if them doest do a review in it they say fuck it and do watch it to make a review

[@darynu]

Saw this movie yesterday. Loved the movie. I thought the first movie was just bleh, but I actually adored this movie. It makes fun of itself so much in a way that seems to go over everyones head. The point of the movie is that they KNOW the movie is ridiculous and dumb, and they put so much emphasis on it. For instance, the reviewers think the bird scene was unfunny because he deserved it for bugging that bird in the first place. However, that was why it was so funny. He was doing something he shouldnt have, and paid the price. The price being that a bird much smaller than him savagely attacked him, while a man 10 ft away smiled at him and played piano. This movie isnt supposed to be intelligent with its humor, nor do the producers think they made anything revolutionary. It is simply a simple comedy using unexpected turns and ludicrous situations to invoke some funny moments.

[@PurpleGoomba1]

This is exactly how I feel about it

[@Jruno]

Aha I know it’s 6 years after this comment but this movie is literally a tax write off so pop off but this is a walking ad as a movie and is shit

[@nikosvault]

Please stop with the artsy/creepy upskirt angles. It's a web tv show, not a cinematography audition.

[@jacobelis79]

nikosvault "upskirt" angles? lol I know what your hobby is.

[@NZOrbital]

Jack Brown I think he means to off-puting across the table shot. The camera seems to be placed at table level by Alonso's left arm aimed at Christy

[@blueeyesaf]

Why have you guy had so few reviews the past while? One of the reasons I subscribe to you is because of the interplay of multiple people, it makes the review more well rounded.

[@Top_Weeb]

I clicked on this just so I could skip to the end and see their shit scores.

[@majorspider34]

Sold a lot though.

[@haydndauparas2075]

I loved Paul blart movies

[@BurningAshesProductions]

These angles though!!!

[@markseb2003]

Someone should track figure out all the movies that got the Alonzo Frustrated Sigh at the opening of the WTF movie review.

[@Stiffkittens01]

can't be worse than Glitter or any Adam Sandler film

[@MegaMoose1989]

Stiffkittens It is an Adam Sandler movie he is just behind the cameras.

[@Stiffkittens01]

no wonder it is getting blasted then!

[@markdemort]

Punch Drunk Love is amazing and Adam Sandler is in it.

[@Stiffkittens01]

MarkDeMort I love PTA films & tried to watch this film last year knowing that he was in it, but just couldn't. He was AWFUL!!! There are about 4 actors that I can't watch a film if they are in it (with a few exceptions) and he is on top of that list!

[@markdemort]

Stiffkittens Really? I thought he was great in it, and I hate him.

[@tomitstube]

maybe they should call it "product placement mall 2".

[@csjcsj2906]

Paul Blart: Mall Cop was not that bad. Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 is what I like to call an abomination.

[@BCNeil]

The thing I hated most is how they how the manager of the Wynn falls in love with him.....a fat, broke, sick security guard. I'd guess the manager of the Wynn would make seven figures, and she is gorgeous.

[@BRADYSMITH8395]

I didn't hate the first Paul Blart. I didn't think it was very funny, but it was kinda nice to see the underdog win. I don't want to see this one at all. I hate when sequels are worse versions of the originals.

[@RockNTroll555]

This movie wasn't good? Oh darn, I had really high hopes for this flick. It was my anticipated movie pf 2015!

[@daeroniitargaryen8652]

I remember when I watched the first Paul Blart while I was on holiday in Nigeria. I was 14 and I thought it was a crap movie then. 6 years later and I couldn't believe my eyes when I started seeing trailers for a sequel. I don't even need to watch this review to know that this film is a steaming pile of shit.

[@SlenWash]

Daeron II Targaryen Don't say where you were! If Adam Sandler reads this, he'll get an idea for his next vacation/movie.

[@Phi1618033]

Is it worse than Grown Ups 2?

[@csjcsj2906]

Tal Moore Yes.

[@basketball.rewindshorts890]

I watched this movie it was awesome

[@NDRonin1401]

Alonso Duralde, the Paul Blart Mall Cop of movie reviews

[@2000dpp]

What a lot of critics don't seem to get is that Happy Madison movies and the like are comfort food. It's like going to your favorite chain restaurant and having your favorite dish. It's not fine dining or an exciting new restaurant but it's familiar and that's the point. There's a certain siliness to hm movies that elicit a chuckle at times. Now I'm not saying that all hm movies are good or even average, this one is certainly subpar. But I'd rather watch this movie than a lot of the crapshoot out there. True, many if not most of the jokes fell flat but at least Kevin James fully commits to his roles, even with a weak script.

[@sk8dudesk8on]

Good review. But these camera angles are just awful.

[@mykelc205]

I had high hopes for this.

[@amphitheatre]

what comix do you even read bro?

[@PurushaDesa]

Poor Alonso just used "mall cop" as a verb. Christ, this film will be unpleasant and unnecessary.

[@TehFlush]

I don't get the bad reviews for the movie. It's not promising to be sophisticated or anything of the sort. It goes for the cartoon humor and succeeds pretty damn well, had everyone in the theatre laughing and there was even clapping at the end.

[@jessechuff]

How does Kevin James sleep at night knowing he's done this to humanity.

[@DrizzlingDrizzlers]

Okay, I had to have somewhere to vent. I am not one to verbally destroy a movie simply because it's a sequel. If one of my favorite movies has a sequel, I love it, even if the sequel isn't quite as good as the first. Mall Cop 1 is actually one of my favorite comedies. I loved the whole "underdog saving the day, and getting the girl" plot. Mall Cop 2 tramples on everything that the first film accomplished, within the first three minutes of the film. The beginning is so awkward, and horrible, that I have a hard time enjoying the rest of the film. It's like the writers just didn't care anything about this character anymore, and I was all for a Mall Cop sequel, but they absolutely ruined it.

[@jasonchilado]

Dislike, this film was misunderstood it was so funny and great , I was SOOO surprised to see negative reviews

[@ShizauOtakuOPGJulietStarling]

Same

[@jasonchilado]

+Sears “Juliet Starling” Hellsing オタク thank u! someone has a sense of humor around here!

[@otdewiljes]

"Like a bowl of gelatin that has gone off."

[@robin.s.]

was it really worse than the north korea comedy flick?

[@Plengwing]

I've made it a personal policy to never watch any movie that has Kevin James as a leading role.

[@ReallyBadSeed]

When will people learn: KEVIN JAMES IS NOT FUNNY

[@nascarfanatic2425]

ReallyBadSeed He's no Chris Farley, but he's better than Daniel Tosh.

[@msminmichigan]

Kevin James was funny until he started making Adam Sandler movies. His stand up was funny back in the day, The King of Queens was a good show. I blame Adam Sandler.

[@ventricity]

Really, this doesn't look THAT bad. The trailer is quite funny

[@Twhistle]

It's not bad. Quality-wise, it's not that good, but it's an entertaining movie with some pretty funny parts.

[@Stand_By_For_Mind_Control]

One day Adam Sandler will finally croak from the Tony Montana-like mountains of cocaine he does. Only then will we be free.

[@caldavis2156]

Picture if they made a family friendly version of Die Hard... But instead of being good it's not...

[@nascarfanatic2425]

If I were to do movie reviews, this would be my review. I liked the movie, but where I'd like to make my point is comparing this to the first movie-- which was in theaters 6 years ago, and I can't say whether I think this is better than the first or not. Story wise, it's kinda messed up from the start, then gets better as the movie goes on. I mean, I'm probably the only one who didn't find the 6 day marriage thing and the death of Paul's mom too funny. I don't even know why Amy got a divorce from Paul after 6 days. Does it make any sense? No. Is it relevant to the plot? It's sorta relevant to the sub-plot, but I still think the main plot would've been okay w/o this. Is it even remotely funny? I guess for people who are into sicker humor, it would be, but seeing as how Paul's the main character, and the first movie seemed to have a fairy tale ending for him, the 6 day marriage thing is kind of a slap in the face for anybody who was happy about the ending of the first movie. I can see that the marriage ended in a divorce, but I think it would've been better if it ended A) after 6 years, not 6 days, or B) The movie killed off Amy. Either way, I think the purpose of this probably has to do with Jayma Mays having some reason to not be in the second movie. I don't think they would've written her off as divorcing Paul if she wanted to do the second movie, or if Happy Madison wanted her to be a part of the second movie. (IDK who to blame for the divorce joke.) The death of Paul's mom made a little more sense, but I think them trying to make a joke out of it was kind of sick. I mean, that's not necessarily an unrealistic thing. People have gotten hit by cars/trucks on a regular basis, and they die from it a lot of times. Those are probably my biggest issues with the movie, though. As far as the rest of the movie goes, I liked it. The villain was a better villain, the action was better, and thank you Happy Madison for making the hypoglycemia joke less disgusting. It had a good share of jokes in it, too, that makes everybody laugh. But I think the movie is at its best whenever Paul and Maya get to Vegas, not when they're in New Jersey.

[@coldtruth3944]

i thought the movie was funny and better than expected. they are being too harsh. The storyline is weak but has some good scenes.

[@aidamanager]

Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 (2015) Box Office Budget: $30,000,000 (estimated) Opening Weekend: $23,762,435 (USA) (17 April 2015) Gross: $71,038,190 (USA) (31 July 2015) Yes, this is how bad it was. They made $41.000.000 (million dollars) Just saying...

[@Archeopteryxman421]

"Good box office= good movie" Yeah, yeah, doesn't work that way.

[@aidamanager]

I assume you work in the industry.

[@Archeopteryxman421]

Ad D No, but I do know what an "argumentum ad populum" is. (Look it up)

[@TheGreatOne313]

The opening was hilarious to me tho

[@Se7nom]

Come on, you can't give a score of 0 to a movie.iI so, your system ends up with 11 ratings (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 = 11 ratings). 0.1 should be the lowest score.

[@DameunPutazo]

Rotten Tomatoes is a good gauge on how good a movie is. It could have a 90% score, but I might not want to see it because I'm not into the subject matter... that still doesn't take away from the movie itself. Anywhere near 50% is a gamble. But 0%? Wow. That means it's fucking terrible. Even mainstream "bad movies" have a score... any score. But 0%? And why am I not surprised it came from Sandler's studio?

[@ayelmao1231]

All I can think of when I see Paul Blaurt Samgladiotor XD

[@jonsnow8766]

It was worse than grown ups 2

[@larrydigger461]

This is somewhat unrelated but how is the general reception of the first Grown Ups? I sort of enjoyed it

[@LoboLocoX]

I'm still going to go watch it. It looks dumb and full of fat jokes but its Kevin James, he pulls of the chubby clumsy guy so well.

[@TheGreatOne313]

Umm, look if you watch as a dumb movie which it is and if you somewhat enjoyed the first then you will like this. I had very low expectations and I laughed multiple times.

[@queenjohnson5097]

Wow.

[@Namethatname]

this movie was great how dare they shit talk this work of art

[@har10210]

I've heard it's shit

[@00STGI]

they got rid of the insest porn guy?

[@Zactastical]

They must super excited for Joe Dirt 2!!!

[@hopperthemarxist8533]

this is, as noted, one long ad for a casino ---- bottom feeder bait, also a bait and switch as an ad for people to go gamble... childish, lame sophmoric humor

[@jenniferkeyes6418]

[@PedroTawa]

Ugh I can tell this is garbage I haven't seen the end of the review and it's 2 stars out of 10 lol

[@dajuand9]

Why does every movie feel that in order to make a sequel they have to go to Las VEGAS!! WTF!! Can i still give my score if I didnt see it because I knew it was goona suck ass! anyway my score [ 0 ]

[@sarsona_3611]

I was actually excited for this, but found it to be terrible. This is like being fucked in the ass by EA.

[@MrDman21]

Kevin James best movie was HITCH! He's good when he has good co-stars but when the whole movie is built around him, he SUCKS! No wonder why this movie got a 0% on Rotten Tomatoes.

[@Bilboswaggins2077]

I thought the movie was funny sometimes but it wasn't that good

[@nascarfanatic2425]

Necromaster2077 My biggest issue with the movie was the beginning. When Paul talks about his marriage to Amy lasting only 6 days, then his mom dying from getting hit by a milk truck. I mean, that's humor you'd expect in something made by somebody more sadistic like Daniel Tosh, which doesn't appeal to me. Happy Madison has been hit/miss with their movies in recent memory, and this one is better than atrocities like Click or That's My Boy, but it certainly isn't no Billy Madison or Happy Gilmore.

[@evancooper4968]

THE AVERAGE IS .25

[@eyeslesstongue1327]

Same plot, same jokes, seems rushed. I liked seeing Kevin James getting kicked by the horse

[@jamesjeffreypaul]

You were too kind to the film.

It is not worse than "The Epic Movie".

[@nicodimus2222]

Suckerpunch is worse.

[@smaakjeks]
