Paul Blart Mall Cop

Paul Blart (Kevin James) is the mall cop and takes his job very seriously, however being over weight and mild mannered not many people notice of him, but his job is his life. So much so he is still looking for love and he has his eye on a new employee to the mall Amy (Jayma Mays).

Despite making a fool of himself he, thinks he can still win over Amy. When on shift he his training a new guy, as no-one else wants to do any work, Paul shows him the ropes. Life never changes for Paul and he is in his comfort zone.

Then one day when on shift he is busy playing Rock Band in a shop and is oblivious to the fact that the mall has been taken over by armed men that want to get away with $30 million. Paul has never come across anything like his before but decides that this is his chance to prove to Amy what a man he is and save the day.

With the police outside not wanting his to play the hero they are helpless as he seizes his chance to be the knight in shining armour, but has the unarmed, fat security guard got what it takes to bring down the gang in a light hearted Die Hard type film.

On looking at the DVD cover I thought that this film would be awful, but it was actually funny and entertaining, a great film that you don’t have to try and keep up with very enjoyable definitely worth a watch!
