Delusional mall cop (a close-cropped, clean-shaven Seth Rogen) with real-cop aspirations comparable to those of the title character of Paul Blart, but with a deeper and wider vein of psychosis: manic highs, sadistic lows. The maker of The Foot Fist Way, Jody Hill, enters the mainstream for the purposes of pushing the envelope, a spectacle more clinical than comical. Trouperish performances from Anna Faris as the hero’s unworthy object of affection, Collette Wolfe as his worthier one, Celia Weston as his self-medicating mother, Ray Liotta as a derisive police detective.
