-->'''Mark''': So, bear in mind that ''Observe And Report'' is ''not'' ''Paul Blart: Mall Cop'', ok? So Seth Rogen plays a character who's a mall cop, like Paul Blart, and he's useless and pudgy, like Paul Blart. He has a condition that requires medication, like Paul Blart, he's got a crush on a girl at the mall, like Paul Blart, he lives with his mother, like Paul Blart, he dreams of firing a gun, like Paul Blart, but like Paul Blart he can't actually have a gun. There's a crime happening in the mall, like in ''Paul Blart: Mall Cop'', solving it will be his redemption, like in ''Paul Blart: Mall Cop'', and though everyone will laugh at him on the way, like ''Paul Blart: Mall Cop'', he will end up triumphing, like ''Paul Blart: Mall Cop''.
