I didn't know that there was a sequel until I logged on to Amazon.com looking for "Miss Congeniality." I had seen it on TV a number of times and enjoyed it so much that I wanted to own it. Anyway, when I saw this double DVD I was thrilled; just think, Ms. Bullock reprising her character. So, I ordered it. Well, the original was great, typical Bullock, fun plot, and I enjoy it very much. However, #2 was not so great. The plot was predictable, slow-going and, in general, boring. Ms. Bullock, however, did the best she could with what she was given. I applaud her efforts. If you're a Bullock fan, she won't disappoint you so this double DVD is worth having just to confirm that Ms. Bullock's talent can rise above a lousy script.

This is a funny spoof of the pageant world, with enough honesty to admit these girls work hard for their awards, and most of them are really nice girls. Our undercover cop is a total dropout from Uncouthsville, hilarious and accident prone - but touched by the kindness of the competing girls. Taking place in San Antonio, Texas, the pageant people barely tolerate this NYPD unladylike cop who needs a whole team working on her all night to make her look presentable. Her extreme competitiveness is undermined by her compassion and lack of discipline on the police force. Initially unwilling to be the undercover agent, her desire to save these girls lives overcomes all hardships and her cleverness helps her crack the code to find the maniac out to kill them. This is not a GREAT movie, but it is a lot of fun to watch and has some quotable lines: "You want to kiss me..." "World Peace" This is a really purple Russian!"

Miss Congeniality is very very good and funny. Miss Congeniality 2 good but not as funny. I love Sandra Bullock no matter what movie she is acting in. Sandra Bullock is down to earth and unpretenious.

Packing and shipping of item good. DVD in good condition.

Transaction was very smooth. Item was promptly shipped. Would buy from again. Great Seller! Thanks! A++++
