This movie is like Bad Santa...


...but with all of the funny parts removed.

Well said.

Essentially the only similarity that it has with Bad Santa is that it's set in a mall, and there are criminals in there after hours. Anything resembling a joke, a touching moment or anything close to acting was lost...

Terrible terrible excuse for entertainment.

I felt so cheated that I'd paid almost £6 to watch it that I felt justified sneaking into the next screen to see Knowing. That was crap as well, but still, it eased the pain.

The other similarity to Bad Santa was that it made me want to drink.....heavily.

I'm saving this Mall Cop movie for Christmas. I liked Kevin James so much in 'Zookeeper' that I thought that I would give this one a try.

were there funny parts in bad santa ?

Yeah, I read the original script and they happened to removed an anal sex scene (though off-screen) that was omitted in the theatrical cut.
