Short Review: Let's just say, the first part was awesome, the second part was absolutely horrendous and boring.I loved the idea: kids stranded in a mall? With a snowstorm going on? Wow, awesome. Can't wait to see how that develops.Instead, we get teen drama, breaking a mall (yes they do considerable...
