I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
By now most of you probably know (or noticed) I'm not a big comedy fan, as I generally don't find them funny. (I refuse point blank to watch spoofs like Scary Movie, Meet the Spartans, etc). I must admit, though, I enjoyed this film more than anticipated. Maybe mostly thanks to Sandra Bullock's naturally funny acting. Maybe because Sandra Bullock is one of my favorite actresses (just not in 'Murder by Numbers', where she ruined the film in my opinion!). I also immensely enjoyed Michael Caine in this film. The interesting-ish plot was wonderfully done, me thinks. I did find Sandra's bad girl impression a bit forced, as it doesn't really suit her, but the 'transformation' was fun to watch. The whole set-up of Candice Bergen's character together with her son's evil plot was a bit silly, though, and not really believable. It could have been done so much better. Oh, and I loved Bosson's version of 'One in a million' at the pagaent! Beautiful song.
It has the usual failing most ugly duckling / Cinderella / Pygmalion / My Fair Lady shows share, at no point is the heroine not gorgeous. It's insulting and yet I don't hate not having to see the ugly, "Before" version of the star. Yes, I'm shallow and part of this problem.This show has hotties everywhere, a great cast AND it fumbles and stumbles its way through the funny to hilarious effect.It is a good show and well worth seeing. I can easily watch this every 3 - 5 years.
Sandra Bullock again delights us with a good comedy, this time massively backed by the public, which led to the realization of a sequel.This movie is made for her, and she is worth it. It totally takes the weight of the plot and full of humor and spontaneity. Far from films like "Big Momma's House" or "White Chicks", "Miss Congeniality" has gags great, both physical and verbal. And is that the Bullock is an expert in the art of making laugh, so much that his interpretation in this film earned him his second Golden Globe nomination for Best Comedy Actress, with much merit since they are never nominated for performances in such films a bit serious.The transformation of a rude FBI agent into a refined Miss is hilarious, and the plot of the film is not very silly, the tape does not fall into the gross humor, or in situations too ridiculous, so it is very hilarious and funny, but not a bomb.As a side note the always effective Michael Caine and Heather Burns (the little blonde Miss who befriends) who dominate the mood almost as well as Sandra. On the other hand Benjamin Bratt as always in his line of puppet that does not contribute absolutely nothing to the tape, honestly the race like actor of this lad is never going to take off ....The American critics applauded the performance of Sandra and the audience went massively to the cinema, everything is said. One of the best films in the Bullock's career, with a sequel that could not keep the bar so high, was difficult.The best: Sandra Bullock, almost takes the Golden Globe. The worst: A romance with so little importance could be deleted.
"Miss Congeniality" is easily my favourite movie with Sandra Bullock in a leading rolePlot In A Paragraph: Disgraced FBI agent Gracie Hart (Sandra Bullock) goes undercover at the Miss USA Beauty Pagent to prevent a bombing.Bullock proves she is more than capable of carrying a movie, and re-teaming after the "Demolition Man" Bullock and Benjamin Bratt are a lot of fun and have genuine on screen chemistry. Candice Bergman is always a lot of fun (though this is the first time I have seen her in anything since the Burt Reynolds movie "Stick" in 1985. I can't decide who actually stole the movie Michael Caine or William Shatner as both are brilliant, and steal every scene they are in, and that is not said lightly as Bullock is excellent.
