Mall security guard Ronnie Barnhardt is called into action to stop a flasher from turning shopper's paradise into his personal peep show. But when Barnhardt can't bring the culprit to justice, a surly police detective is recruited to close the case.
Subversive, highly misunderstood, extremely tragic. Far ahead of its time in diagnosing the pathologies of postmodernism. This particular Apatowian comedy sub-genre is precisely the perfect choice for telling this diagnosis because all existing characters are so obviously voiceless and oblivious. This genre film here shows in 86 minutes what other hand-wavey Cannes discourse-film concoctions can't in 3 hours.
