Clevercell Very disappointing...

Wordiezett So much average

Casey Duggan It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Mihai Toma Gracie is a FBI agent chosen to go on a beauty contest as an undercover agent. The problem is that she is a manly type of girl, shabby, completely strange to beauty and makeup, not well mannered and with an appetite for violence and slang. Vic, a person with a lot of experience in this type of contests, has to transform Gracie from what she is now into a lady but at the same time, she must stay focused on her job as she's about to encounter a lot of unpleasant surprises from both the terrorist team and her own.This movie is like a parody, it makes you laugh even when you prepare for a scene that you think will be more serious than ever. Despite this factor, it's not a bad movie. On the contrary, is entertaining, funny and it even has a good story (not very complex and not very well polished from time to time but still good). If you don't take it very seriously, you'll have a good time with it. It's an enjoyable movie!

Maddie1003 Cinephile Gracie Hart (Sandra Bullock) is a tough-as nails FBI agent, quite capable in her field but lacking everywhere else. When a mission goes awry, she is forced to go undercover as a contestant in Miss United States Beauty Pageant in order to prove her worth. Now this is especially difficult for those cops(in this case Gracie) who lacks all "feminine graces."Here Gracie is not one of those 'cool' cops who can pin her hair with one hand and stab the enemy with the other. She is the one who can match her male colleagues in boxing, makes witty comments, wears baggy jeans, cannot manage her unruly hair, cannot walk in heels, chews loudly, and snorts when she laughs. Sandra Bullock is effortlessly good as Gracie and steals the show with her over-the top antics. She provides all the laughs in the movie.As for the story line, well, it is not as amazing as Sandra. It is pretty entertaining to watch her. You can overlook the story line when she comes on screen.Rating: 6.5/10

Predrag Comedy starring Sandra Bullock as Gracie Hart, a tough girl cop who is obsessed with her job, doesn't have time for relationships and despises anything girly. After bungling a police operation, Gracie is consigned to go undercover as Miss New Jersey in the Miss USA beauty contest, resulting in hilarious elocution and posture lessons from an etiquette coach, excellently played by Michael Caine. As she just about convincingly gets through the extensive eliminating rounds, the cynical Gracie gets to know some of the other girls and is gradually transformed in her outlook to femininity and love. Inevitably she spots the saboteur, saves the day and ends the film as a more understanding heroine.The plot idea is extremely thin and it's only the charming performance of Bullock that gets the viewer through. She's ably assisted by the wonderful Michael Caine who pops up in the great role of Victor Melling, the man that must transform Gracie into a beauty queen and William Shatner makes good work of his role as Stan Fields the master of ceremonies. It's great to see these two old actors hamming their parts up for all they are worse. I'll also mention the cute and appealing Heather Burns who as Miss Rhode Island personifies every cliché of the pageant scene and yet still makes a lovely character. It's not a classic comedy by any stretch of the imagination, but it's still immensely delightful and immensely watchable.Overall rating: 8 out of 10.

PartialMovieViewer Donald Petry did a really good job on this movie. I read titles like, 'Miss Congehiality,' in the past and kind of figured the movie was for women-only – giving men a great opportunity to sleep. Was I ever wrong with this flick? I should have known better…I am a big fan of almost everything Sandra Bullock does. There is one movie I wish she never did - but that is then...this is now. Sandra is extremely versatile. She can do thrillers, suspense, comedy and suspense-comedy (as proved by this performance.) Backing her up on the runway is a cadre of veterans like Michael Caine, Candice Bergen and William Shatner – each outstanding at getting their fare-share of the laughs. The story surrounds FBI agents, Eric Mathews (Benjamin Bratt's character) and his partner, Gracie Hart (Sandra Bullock – of course) secretly crashing a beauty pageant to thwart some serious-beauty-pageant crime. Pretty basic premise packed full of laughs. Good cast, great directing and a really super job by Sandra Bullock. I could not stop laughing...highly recommended.
