So, at the end of the day, you reviewed Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 six years ago when you saw the first film. If you enjoyed that one, see this. If you didn't, there's your answer.

Years from now when people look up the meaning of the word "unnecessary" in the dictionary the definition will be the synopsis of Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2.

| Original Score: 0/5 | Feb 3, 2021

It just lacks the spirit, spark, and authenticity that made us fall in love with the first film.

| Original Score: 2.0/4.0 | Sep 19, 2020

In a nutshell, James prat-falls his way through a script that blithely believes it is clever. It is not; it is the epitome of lazy writing and base characterization.

| Feb 26, 2019

There is absolutely no reason for its existence, and I wish I could somehow get my 90 minutes back.

| Jan 23, 2019

Unless you've been mixing your medications, your resistance to Mr Blart's charms should hold for at least the rest of your life.

| Original Score: 0.5/5 | May 11, 2018

People laughing at fat men isn't new, but it's never felt as old as in Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2.

| Original Score: 0/5 | Jan 9, 2017

This follow-up to the 2009 original is even more terminally dumb and dopey, with co-writer, co-producer and star Kevin James hamming it up horribly.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 21, 2015

As expected, all the humour involves his bumping into things and falling over because he's fat, which is apparently hilarious.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Aug 14, 2015

Not about the every man hero, it's about the fat slob working class and how we should laugh at them and not with them.

| Jul 9, 2015

Forget the whole "Whatever happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" spiel; Officer Blart should have done us all a solid and stayed in Jersey with his Segway.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 29, 2015

The Blart jokes hobble along again here. What's new is an added layer of misjudgment (e.g., tasing someone five times). The only cringe to this comedy comes with the stereotypes: a no-nonsense black woman who drops slang; a snotty young Latino hotshot.

| May 25, 2015

Surprising notes of meanness and bitterness.

| Original Score: 1/10 | May 4, 2015

Kevin James' buffoonish charm and the obvious product placement quickly run cold.

| Original Score: 2/10 | Apr 30, 2015

It doesn't break new ground in any way, but it relishes Kevin James hitting it for our pleasure as many times as he can-and sometimes that's enough.

| Original Score: B | Apr 28, 2015

If you find yourself in front of a screen where Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 is playing you only have yourself to blame.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Apr 24, 2015

Although there have been worse sequels -- and worse overall movies -- make no mistake, that's hardly a recommendation.

| Apr 24, 2015

A perfectly congenial, innocuous goofball comedy. It's not as funny as the first film, but it is funny enough...this chuckle-worthy little film has become subject to some of the most vitriolic reviews in recent memory; it is difficult to figure out why.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Apr 24, 2015

Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 doesn't believe in the worthiness of its own hero. Why should we?

| Original Score: 0/5 | Apr 23, 2015

There are mediocre films, and then there are films like Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2, where the mediocrity is more or less the point.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 23, 2015
