Miss Congeniality (2000)

Forensic Buff

I have always like Sandra Bullock. I have waited for it to go on sale. I have both I & II. Always enjoyable. June 15, 2008

I Thought I'd Like This; I Never Dreamed This Would Become One Of My All-Time Favorite Comedies!

My favorite comedy of all time is the original "That Darn Cat". Always has been, always will be. My second favorite was "Seems Like Old Times" with Chevy Chase, Charles Grodin, and Goldie Hawn. Note the present tense "is" with the first movie, and the past tense "was" with the second?

"Miss Congeniality" is now the official first runner up on my comedies list. The concept interested me, but the result was beyond what I expected.

For one thing, the acting was superb. This was the first Sandra Bullock movie I saw, and I loved it. Michael Caine was excellent as always. Will Shatner also fit the part perfectly, as did Candice Bergan.

For another, the writing was excellent. In fact, I could argue if this really was a comedy. Yes, it had its share of comic moments, but so did Jurassic Park. This movie had such a natural flow that the suspension of disbelief was minimal.

I won't spoil any surprises, but I loved Sandra's answer to the question at the contest. In fact, that fits my personality as well.

I love movies about someone who has to rise to the occassion, and this is another that fits into that category. The ending was superb as well.

Okay, now go get this movie. You got that? April 28, 2008

So Funny....

Life is too full of gory movies that make you sick to your stomach, this movie is just funny. Sandra Bullock could have been me when I was young, the klutz in heels. I am glad I bought it so I can watch it when ever I need a lift and a laugh. March 20, 2008

Gets funnier every time I watch it!

There's a reason why this funny Sandra Bullock movie is the favorite of so many women of various ages. In a very lighthearted way, it makes a statement about having it all and empowering yourself.

The situations are I-Love-Lucy kind of absurd, most of the characters are charicatures, but I adore this film! Most importantly, Miss Congeniality has stood the test of multiple viewings. I appreciate the talents of Sandra Bullock even more every time I watch this DVD.

If you don't have it yet, ladies, add it to your collection of chick-flicks. January 7, 2008
