The only reason this one got two stars instead of just one is because I like Kevin James. He's a funny guy who you just want to root for. That said, this movie is lazy and lame. The few funny scenes were used in the trailers (I hate that) and the thin premise of a plot in which a gang of what seem to be best described as ninja-skateboard dudes try to rip off a shopping mall after the black friday holiday tells you all you need to know. A second grade student could take that setup and write a similar story to what transpires in this movie. James is charming and the scenes of him scurrying about on a Segway scooter are cute but overused. Predictable and mindless, I could not recommend this dud to anyone other than rabid Kevin James fans. I'm a big fan and I didn't like it if that tells you anything. This is one holiday gift that should be returned to the mall for a refund. Yuk! Two stars out of five.
