Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous
Director: John Pasquin
Year: 2005
Stars: Sandra Bullock, Regina King, Enrique Murciano, William Shatner, Ernie Hudson, Heather Burns
OK, I admit it. I wasn't exactly paying this movie full attention - at least initially. Which turned out to be a good thing, because when I tried to, about half way through, I got bored and annoyed (in equal measures) really rather quickly. After Miss Congeniality, this is such a letdown.
After the first movie's beauty pageant, Gracie Hart (Sandra Bullock) is now a big star and can't go anywhere without being spotted. So she becomes the "public face" of the FBI. Somewhere along the way she ends up having to save Miss America (an old beauty pageant friend) from a kidnapping plot. To help her, she gets a gay stylist and a woman bodyguard.
None of the characters here, particularly Gracie herself, are likeable. They are all terribly stereotyped, entirely over-the-top and incredibly annoying. Every scene just made me dislike them more. The plot itself isn't that good either - I guess the nicest thing I can say is that there was one.
Rating: 2 out of 5
