Pros: Some Funny Moments, Cute Movie, Entertaining Cons: Too Long, Some Jokes Didn't Work
I've seen a lot of Sandra Bullock movies. I've heard all the complaints. Sure, about 90% of her movies should probably go straight to Blockbuster, but does that mean they're necessarily bad movies, or they aren't fun? No. Miss Congeniality is one...

Pros: Michael Caine, Bullock again, Ben Bratt; entertaining for light weight comedy! Cons: Contrived plot, with some missing pieces; Silly, (but fun), pratfalls too common.
This movie is good for an afternoon of light weight laughs.
Don't expect anything more and you won't be disappointed. Sandra Bullock is the star and plays the character she created in 1992's LOVE POTION # 9,( more or less). It is no great stretch...

Pros: Funny, Witty, Hilarious, Laugh inducing (Someone get me a thesaurus, I'm running low on synonyms.) Cons: they threw in a romance, but hey, deal with it.
Well, I see I am the 4th person to rate this movie. Seeing that the three who epinionized before were too good for this gleaming, sparkly wonderful everything-a-comedy-should-be comedy, I realize that I must take upon my humble self the task of...

Pros: Some funny moments from Caine, Shatner and company make this film worth seeing. Cons: The film never takes a firm stand on the position of a beauty pageant's merits.
I urge anyone that has a healthy respect for my taste in movies to not read the rest of this review, as I will not be tearing this cookie-cutter Hollywood flick limb from limb. That is my public service announcement. Take care of yourselves and each...

Pros: Sandra Bullock is sweet in this movie. Cons: William Shatner. *shudder*
This weekend I rented the film, Miss Congeniality. Starring Sandra Bullock and Benjamin Bratt, Candice Bergen and Michael Caine. Despite the cheesiness of this movie, I absolutely loved it! I am such a sucker for cute movies. Movies that don’t...

Pros: There were some actors and actresses I recognized. Cons: Just the little things, you know, acting...script...plot...little things like that.
As I stood there in the video store browsing the titles my wife approaches me and says, "Let's get this one, it's an action movie!" I look into her hands to see Miss Congeniality. I'm reading the back of the box and yes, this is supposed to be an...

Pros: A "Feel-Good" movie that keeps you laughing. Cons: Not enough "who-dunnit" suspense.
"When you wish upon a star, Makes no difference who you are..."
As soon as Miss Congeniality came out in DVD, I bought it.
I am a big fan of Sandra Bullock. I enjoy watching her portrayal of roles that speak to the...

Pros: Very good when you can't find any others to watch. Don't forget this one. Cons: None
While just sitting around and you don't have anything else to do on you Saturday. Try looking at the movie section and seeing the older movies that were out. The ones that are not on the top ten anymore. They might just surprise you. Especially if all...

Pros: lots of slapstick humor, funny adaptation of the classic "ugly duckling - beautiful swan" story Cons: stereotypes the FBI as dimwits, Gracie's laugh grated on my nerves, William Shatner's in it and had to do his Priceline.com style of "singing"
When I first saw the trailers for Miss Congeniality, I knew that this was movie I just had to go see, and after having watched it, I can honestly say that it was pure viewing enjoyment.
Just One of the Guys...

Pros: A couple of funny lines will make you giggle. Cons: Very predictable
Grace Hart (Sandra Bullock playing Sandra Bullock) is a man's kind of girl. Rough and tumble, sloppy, disheveled, uncultured. It was no big surprise that Grace Hart would grow up to be an FBI agent. One with heart (get it? hart....heart?) and soul...

Pros: Entertaining, Fun, Action Packed Cons: None
How Can Someone So Pretty Look So Unpretty?!!
Sandra Bullock is one of those actresses who can dress down and look plain or look like a million bucks. In this movie she did both!!
What a ride. This movie was fun, had great antics...

Pros: Sandra Bullock, William Shatner, funny little scenes Cons: Benjamin Bratt, predictable
I seem to love Sandra Bullock. I don't know how it happened. I never made a conscious decision to like her or not but as I look back at her credits I realize that I have seen a great deal of movies she's been in. And I liked a lot of them too. While...

Pros: Sandra Bullock and Michael Caine. Cons: Uh, script, direction, and basically everything besides Bullock and Caine.
I’m tired of watching Sandra Bullock movies. I’m getting even wearier of writing reviews for them. Just retype the plot, slap in the same complaints, and bam – new Bullock movie review. You can’t teach an old dog new tricks, I guess, because they just...

by mgscmwa , Nov 22 '01
Pros: Humorous plot with a little different twist. Cons: Slightly predictable
Sandra Bullock takes on the role of a super FBI agent with "no class", "no Poise", and "no chance" to win the Miss United States Pageant in Miss Congeniality.
There is not many topics that have been made more fun of than beauty...

Pros: A few laugh lines and occasional physical comedy Cons: Indecisive script, leading to inept direction and lack of comedic focus
To bury this lackluster loser in the Christmas rush is folly but, then again, it was postponed from earlier this year.
Sandra Bullock plays a cynical, rough-and-tumble FBI agent who, since childhood, has been a tomboy. So when a...
