Another look at ‘Paul Blart:Mall Cop 2’, still bad

Paul Blart (Kevin James) with Gino Chizetti (Vic DiBitetto) , Khan Mubi (Shelly Desai), Donna Ericone (Loni Love) and Saul Gundermutt (Gary Valentine) take on the art thieves in the grand hallway in Columbia Pictures’ PAUL BLART: MALL COP 2.

Review-Journal movie critic Christopher Lawrence recently said “Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2” was super terrible, which was a shame, since it was filmed at the lovely Wynn hotel with tax incentives.

I believed Lawrence so much that noted attorney Dayvid Figler and I decided to go see the not-full-of-laughs Kevin James flick and live-Tweet it, just for kicks.

Afterward, Figler and I recorded a NSFW podcast about just how insulting the movie is to native Las Vegans’ intelligence, peacocks and the human brain. And we discussed some of our favorite Vegas movies.
