I recently watched Paul Blart: Mall Cop with a few of my friends, I was expecting it to be decent, the idea is fine and the trailers made it look fairly funny. Not to mention I like that actor from king of queens.

So, this has got to be the worst movie I have seen in as long as I can remember. I watched the entire movie without laughing a single time, It wasn't funny, just stupid. All the semi funny parts were shown in the trailer so those were all spoilt and expected.

It just felt like they made the movie with no regard to making things funny and just filled it with dumb shit that 10-12 year old immature boys would enjoy.

I may be somewhat jaded on my opinion because I enjoy watching a lot of high caliber comedys and have no interest whatsoever in these terrible shock humor used in movies these days.

So Did you or anyone you know enjoy this movie? Also how old are you? =P

No i didn't find it funny at all, seemed more awkward than funny. The movie felt like any other sugar coated american comedy with a side love plot, i think i would have been better off just watching the trailer, than the entire movie.


The trailer made it look like a funny movie, but the end result was just disappointing.

I actually enjoyed it. I'm fifteen and found it entertaining. I really like Kevin James in almost anything he does, save for Barnyard, that was crap. 


I enjoyed it I think because I cared for Paul. For some reason his story really touched me, and the parts that made me laugh a bit seemed like an added bonus. I know this probably isn't the type of movie that was even really made to have you think about the story, but it got to me. I cared enough to want him to succeed, and felt pretty engaged with the movie because of it. 

As humor goes no it wasn't particularly funny. There were some good parts, but it was the story that got me, for whatever reason.

@pornstorestiffi: you would think that lesson would have been learned by now but sadly, everyone wants movies to be good, even if they obviously are not going to be.

although i found all of the TV spots really funny. Watching different television personalities uncomfortably saying the word "blart" was quite awesome

Aha. I Just got it. Very sly. They should add a way to show sarcasm better on the internet, prehaps you could put sarcastic remarks in backwords italics. Thatd be helpful.

@Xeiphyer: What do you have to say about the story though? I think it's established that it wasn't all that funny, and I agree. But I'd like to hear others' opionions on the story.

You really couldn't detect the sarcasm in that post?

@CL60: Did you not find the story at least a bit gripping? Struggling father? Loser with a kind heart? Man who's lost everything still giving life his all? 

I must admit I have a softspot for the guy who takes his seemingly unimportant job and gives it his best because that's how he feels every job should be done, but is slammed down for his efforts.

No, the story was generic while trying to be funny but failing. Badly.

@CL60: Ah I see. Well I have no argument about the humour, I didn't really find it that funny. 

Perhaps my love for the story is because of more personal issues, I can relate to it. I felt it did a good job of convereying the emotions, mostly on part of Kevin James, I thought he was brilliant as always.

I thought it was the most funny movie out there... No one believed me did they. Seriesly though I can see why you would say this movie is for young children there were a lot of part I thought to myself. "I think that was suppose to be funny". As my 13 year old brother is laughing so hard he feel off the couch.

You lost all the respect I might've gained for you.  No one can talk bad about a Steve Oedekerk movie unless they just don't understand comedy in the least bit.

With that said...Paul Blart was FUCKING WRETCHED!

The only thing I laughed at in that entire movie, was when the big fat black guy asks about the happy meal.
Everything else.. was just plain bad.

Yeah, it was a terrible film, made even worse when all the professional skateboarders or whoever they were entered the story.  The sole funny part was his video he had made of him on his Segway out in the street or wherever it was.

Movie was created to punish pirates for downloading that atrocious piece of garbage. Think I smiled at like one thing that wasn't the credits.

It was cute for the younger ones, but it was not nearly as fun as I thought it would be.

One of my teachers brought it in to show a class with the age group between 13-15 and only 3 or 4 people out of the whole room laughed at it. It was a huge dissapointment for me after seeing the awesome trailer.

I'm always down for some Kevin James self-deprecating humour, though.

@DanielJW: Well since it is long out of cinemas where I live I guess I will be safe until the DVD release. Then I was have to begin the resistance all over again. If it comes to Blu-ray I might not be able to resist all that Blart in full HD goodness :-P

The only part I enjoyed about this movie was when the credits started to roll. 1/5 Stars.

I don't think it was terrible, I just think it was rather bland and uneventful.  This is what I wrote a month ago in the "Rate the last film you watched" thread.

Paul Blart: Mall Cop  **

It was harmless with a few chuckles.  Really not much more to it than that.  Weak script, mediocre acting, some ridiculous stunts.  Really, are we to feel any tension from a bunch of parkour jumping, BMX biking, EXTREME thieves in a mall?   Ninety percent of the movie is a yawn-fest, but it's not offensive or so boring that I felt a overwhelming desire to turn it off.  It's bland entertainment you'll forget a half-hour after you're finished watching it.

Seth Rogen's To Observe and Report is a better mall cop movie.

I chuckled once, or maybe twice. The rest of it was almost physically painful at times.
