	Miss Congeniality 2: A Movie Review by Jack Moore (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Far too many of us remember Miss Congeniality, the pseudo-humorous story of Gracie Hart (Sandra Bullock), a dorky, awkward, tom-boyish FBI agent who was assigned to thwart a terrorist attack on the Miss America Pageant, and ended up going undercover as one of the models.
		Miss Congeniality 2 begins with nothing - not one joke that isn't flat or forced, not one new idea to bring to the table.
		Bullock gave the first Miss Congeniality a pulse, and she is equally amiable and fun to watch in the sequel.

	The Wire - Miss Congeniality 2 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		In her surprise hit Miss Congeniality, Sandra Bullock played FBI agent Gracie Hart, who went undercover as a contestant at the Miss United States beauty pageant, the better to protect America from terrorism, if not from silly movies.
		But Miss Congeniality 2 is considerably less than its frequent funny bits, because it lacks the qualities the FBI reportedly prides itself on: discipline and drive.
		Miss Congeniality 2 claims to be fabulous, but like a lot of sequels it feels all too familiar.

	Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous
		I went to Atlantic City around the time of Miss Congeniality and was in Las Vegas two weeks before I saw Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous.
		Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous catches up with FBI agent Gracie Hart (Sandra Bullock) shortly after she successfully disarmed a threat against the Miss United States Pageant while working undercover as a contestant in Miss Congeniality and became an overnight media sensation.
		Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous is rated PG-13 by the MPAA for "sex-related humor."

	Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous Movie Review at Hollywood Video
		This uninspired and slapdash sequel to Bullock's crowd-pleaser Miss Congeniality does have a handful of funny moments and clever one-liners, but it's strictly a formulaic entry that recycles bits from the first film.
		When the reigning Miss United States (Heather Burns) and pageant emcee Stan Fields (William Shatner) are kidnapped in Las Vegas, Gracie joins the investigation led by Collins (Treat Williams).
		Given that Miss Congeniality was serviceable at best, it wasn't as if the sequel's filmmakers were toiling in the long shadow of a comedy classic.

	DVD Review - Miss Congeniality 2 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Following up on the success of her 2000 action comedy hit, "Miss Congeniality," this time Sandra exchanges the runway with Las Vegas, which is, of course, no less glamorous.
		After having gained all the notoriety in "Miss Congeniality" Gracie Hart (Sandra Bullock) now has a big problem as an FBI agent.
		But when her friend Miss America (Cheryl Burns) and Stan Fields (William Shatner) are kidnapped in Las Vegas, Gracie can’t just sit back, smile and wait, especially since the chief of the Las Vegas FBI headquarter (Treat Williams) doesn’t seem to have a grip on things.

	calendarlive.com: MOVIE REVIEW - 'Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous'
		Five years ago Sandra Bullock hit her stride with the fun comedy "Miss Congeniality," in which she played a tough, drab-looking but intrepid FBI agent who submits to an elaborate makeover to pose as a contestant after a beauty pageant receives a threat from one of the country's most crazed terrorists.
		When Miss United States (Heather Burns) and the pageant's emcee (William Shatner) are kidnapped in Las Vegas and held for a $5-million ransom, the bureau dispatches Gracie and her entourage to Sin City, where she is to do news conference duty.
		Bullock has an ingrained likability that has served her well through the thick and thin of her career, but it's not nearly enough to save "Miss Congeniality 2." In fact, there is an atypical strained quality to her acting here that suggests a desperation on her part to make the movie work against all odds.

	Film Review: Miss Congeniality 2: Armed And Fabulous
		Miss Congeniality came out in 2000 and (phew!) stormed the box office.
		Sensibly, nasal guffaws have been axed from the second Miss C. The film's weakness lies in its storyline, which is knotted with sub plots.
		Miss America, a silly girl who became Hart's friend first time round, is snatched with one of the beauty pageant's hosts (reprise for a bloated William Shatner to further embarrass the Star Trek fan club).

	Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous
		Miss New York, Pam (Leslie Ann Grossman), and pageant host Stan Fields (William Shatner) are kidnapped in Las Vegas.
		Miss Congeniality 3 unless there is a script someone would want to give an award to, Agent Fuller’s imitation of Tina Turner is quite good (Regina King is an excellent actress) and the ending works pretty well when Gracie visits the school of her young friend from the book signing.
		Miss Gongeniality 2 was predictable after seeing Miss Congeniality.

	Bullock back for more in 'Miss Congeniality 2' (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		While it ranks as one of Bullock's bigger hits, “Miss Congeniality” was light enough to fall off the screen, so it's not as if the world was clamoring for a sequel.
		She purposely gives herself some moments to show herself as a klutz here, and that is a big element of her success, the vulnerability that she doesn't mind showcasing.
		That will make it far from a surprise if “Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous” is a big box-office hit, yet it would be that much more refreshing to see Bullock (who hasn't been seen very often lately) give herself much more of a challenge next time out.

	Miss Congeniality 2 - Movie Review
		Sandra Bullock isn't doing her underappreciated talent any favors by appearing in "Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous," a relentlessly dim-witted sequel to her 2000 hit about a tomboy FBI agent going undercover at a beauty pageant.
		The first "Miss Congeniality" was itself so hackneyed that the actress's Lucille-Ball-like gift for guffaws was just about its only saving grace, and the same fate befalls her here.
		It seems after her exposure at the Miss United States beauty pageant in the first picture, the bureau decided she could best serve her country by being tarted up literally in satin and bows, and paraded around on a waving-and-smiling publicity tour of talk shows and personal appearances.

	Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous
		Miss Congeniality 2 opens exactly like the first film does: bad bust, cop shot, Gracie's fault.
		Which is not to say that I was offended in the slightest by Miss Congeniality 2; Miss Congeniality 2 is way too boring to be offensive.
		When Gracie and Sam find themselves on stage for a protracted gag at a drag revue, the appalling thought that swims to mind is that Miss Congeniality 2 is walking the same path recently plodded by Nia Vardalos' garish trainwreck Connie and Carla.

		And that is the best I can say for Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous, the sequel to the surprise hit of 2000 Ms.
		Miss Congeniality 2 falls prey to the latter.
		In an attempt to be as funny as the first film many of the gags and jokes are overused, overworked, unoriginal and just fall flat.

	IGN: Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous Review
		The difference here is that the essence of the story – about a frumpy agent finding herself rather than a fat girl embracing her neuroses – is imminently compelling, and actually requires little tinkering to generate new story possibilities.
		The bad news, such as it is in the context of a Miss Congeniality sequel (bad in and of itself to hapless boyfriends), is that the filmmakers don't take the characters anywhere new, unless Vegas counts.
		Miss Congeniality 2 will no doubt be a hit, further confirm Bullock as one of the silver screen's most bankable actresses, and produce future sequels where Gracie looks good, then bad, then good again in the line of duty.

		One of my family’s favorite movies is Miss Congeniality, the 2000 movie about an FBI agent forced to go undercover at the Miss United States pageant.
		None of these apply to Miss Congeniality 2, which seems to have been generated from a checklist of the first movie’s successful elements.
		Miss Congeniality 2 has attractive actors and scenic locations, and won’t tax viewers’ brains too much.

	Miss Congeniality 2 (2005)
		When her old pal, Miss America, is kidnapped, Gracie is just not going to play PR babe and with the help of agent Fuller they crack the case and look totally fabulous doing it.
		Miss Congeniality 1 and 2 are okay, though the first one I liked better because Gracie Lou’s character was adorable.
		The endearing thing about Gracie in MC1 was her rebelliousness but that disappears within the first 10 minutes of MC2 when she agrees to make over her whole life for the FBI image.

		Three weeks after saving the Miss America Pageant, Gracie (Bullock) is a household name and an inspiration to females of all ages (and most likely poster material for males of all ages).
		She even has a ghostwritten autobiography, From Misdemeanors to Miss Congeniality, that is more than slightly inaccurate but popular all the same.
		No longer able to go out in public without being recognized, she agrees to be the "face of the FBI" and hit the talk show circuit to help soften its public persona.

		Though itâs possibly lost in the mix of other not-so-subtle messages, Miss Congeniality 2 tries to underscore the value of individuality by showing how far Gracie ventures from her true self.
		In the name of FBI work, Miss Congeniality 2 throws in a ton of punches, kicks, pile drivers, head butts and body slams.
		Behind the fake eyelashes and layers of makeup, Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous trumpets a makeover thatâs beyond a plain-Jane FBI agent turning into a beauty queen.
