Six years after he saved the day at his beloved New Jersey shopping mall, security guard Paul Blart (Kevin James) is taking a well-deserved vacation. In recognition for his hard work, he's won an all-expenses-paid trip to a security convention in Las Vegas, and decides to take his teenage daughter, Maya (Raini Rodriguez), with him. True to form, however, Paul just can't relax and take it easy, so when he uncovers a criminal threat to the hotel, he springs into action.

Critics Consensus

Bathed in flop sweat and bereft of purpose, Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 strings together fat-shaming humor and Segway sight gags with uniformly unfunny results.

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

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

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

...a mostly (and palpably) underwhelming sequel that fares even worse than its lackluster predecessor...

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.

Within 30 seconds it completely undoes, destroys, and desecrates everything the first movie set out to build. Horrible.

Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 (2015) sticks closely to the formula of the first film—slapstick comedy, a goofy storyline, and the classic good-guy versus bad-guy setup. Kevin James returns as the clumsy yet oddly determined Officer Blart, a character who often seems completely out of his element but somehow manages to stumble into saving the day. This time the story moves from the mall to Las Vegas, where Blart attends a security guard convention that quickly turns into another accidental adventure involving criminals and casino chaos. Much like the original, the humor leans heavily into physical comedy and absurd situations, which fans of the first movie will recognize immediately. While it delivers some laughs and stays true to the spirit of the original, the film doesn’t offer much new beyond its Vegas setting. It’s entertaining enough for a casual watch, but not necessarily something most people will feel the need to revisit. One aspect that doesn’t land as well is the way security guards are sometimes portrayed. The comedy often leans into belittling the profession for laughs, which can feel a bit overplayed at times. Overall, it’s a light, goofy comedy that might be worth watching once—but probably not twice.

Enjoyed the first movie a great deal; not this one. Had a couple of funny moments but mostly felt like an after-Weekend Update SNL skit.

It’s funny, but undeniably bad. The plotting is even worse here than in the original, and the acting even cheesier. It’s incredibly stupid, and I see why many hate it. I’ve always had fun with it and got some laughs, but uh, yeah, it’s a bad movie.
