As I try to wind down and find a few moments of distraction in these busy days following my mother's passing, I did treat myself to Mall Cop on Netflix (it's my son's subscription, I rarely watch it). Some thoughts:

I'd heard that it was a pretty awful movie --- but it wasn't. For what it is, it's really a very entertaining, lighthearted comedy. Not everything has to be epic cinema.
Paul Blart was not nearly the dork you are led to believe he is. Too heavy, but not a bad-looking guy.
He sees himself as quite the ladies' man, and a lot of times, perception goes a long way.
It's a decent family movie with only minimal bad language, only one or two mild profanities.
He's a good family man and takes care of his daughter as a single father, as well as his mother. Easy for me to relate to.
If you wanted to read this into it, you could assume that he had an annulment, and was therefore free to pursue a relationship. His wife just married him to get a green card, and left him six days after they got married. (His religious background doesn't come up in the movie, but IRL, Kevin James is a faithful, apostolic Catholic and an TLM adherent on top of that.)

Well worth watching.
