Dumped by her boyfriend (whom Benjamin Bratt wisely decided not to portray this time around), a gloomy Gracie goes along with the promo biz until her friend, Miss United States (Heather Burns), is kidnapped along with pageant official Stan Fields (William Shatner) in Las Vegas. Bullock still has perk to please her fans, but neither she nor her awkward alter-ego has any purpose in a sequel to a movie released five years prior. The result is a desperately unfunny, feature-length commercial for Las Vegas tourism, with outdated homosexual stereotypes (Diedrich Bader, as Gracie's stylist) and the usually terrific Regina King (of Ray and Jerry Maguire fame) stuck in a glum role as Bullock's butch bodyguard. Armed? Yes. Fabulous? No. --Steve Wiecking, Amazon.comNewest Review: ... a beauty pageant, unfortunately she is now so famous and recognizable she is unable to go back to the force and ends up as ... more ... the face of the Bureau after an undercover job is blown.
Gracie goes along with the promotion work until her friend, Miss United States played by Heather Burns is kidnapped along with pageant official Stan Fields played by the one and only William Shatner.
Gracie Hart and her angry bodyguard, Sam Fuller played by Regina King go in search to help them both to be rescued. But will she get there in time to save them???
Gracie goes through many funny things to get there in the end and the film had me laughing a lot.

I’m not really a huge fan of Hollywood’s sugary sweet films, finding them too light and without substance, but occasionally I do like to watch something silly and light. I really enjoyed Miss Congeniality – I’m a big fan of Sandra Bullock and Michael Caine anyway – so when I saw this, I thought I’d give it a go, particularly as I’d borrowed two quite heavy foreign language films at the same time. I didn’t have particularly high expectations – it is rare that the second film is as good as the first – and perhaps because of this, I found this film enjoyably passed a couple of hours. The story Gracie Hart, FBI agent, who previously foiled a plot to kill Miss ...

Miss Congeniality was a fun lightweight comedy that managed to mix humour and a detective story very well while also managing to squeeze in the age old story of a duck out of water. In this case the tomboyish FBI agent Gracie, played by Sandra Bullock, becoming part of a beauty contest as an undercover assignment and discovering her feminine side. The ending of the first film left the story with nowhere to go really. Having changed Gracie from tomboy to woman what could a sequel add to the story? The writers obviously discovered the same problem and tried hard to hit upon somewhere for this sequel to go. From my point of view I think they just about succeeded, as ...

Gracie goes along with the promotion work until her friend, Miss United States played by Heather Burns is kidnapped along with pageant official Stan Fields played by the one and only William Shatner. Gracie Hart and her ...
