Miss Congeniality 2: Armed & Fabulous movie stills
Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
John Monaghan, Detroit Free Press: Like most sequels, Miss Congeniality 2 is just a dumbed-down version of a concept that wasn't that bright to begin with. Read more
Connie Ogle, Miami Herald: It's as original as a pageant contestant advocating world peace. Read more
Allison Benedikt, Chicago Tribune: An exhausting, predictable, even maddening moviegoing experience. Read more
Judy Chia Hui Hsu, Seattle Times: Entertaining and heartwarming. Read more
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle: A boilerplate action comedy. Read more
David Edelstein, Slate: Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous is enjoyable in patches, but only because of the goodwill that most of us still have toward Sandra Bullock. Read more
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper: This, to me, is a classic example of a sequel that was just made because the first one made money. I didn't even like the first one. Read more
Eleanor Ringel Gillespie, Atlanta Journal-Constitution: Miss Congeniality 2 isn't a total waste of your time; Bullock sees to that. But it is a waste of the star's time. Read more
Randy Cordova, Arizona Republic: You figure Bullock would have learned her lesson about sequels after the Speed 2 fiasco. MC2 isn't that bad, but it puts its star's charms to the test. Read more
Wesley Morris, Boston Globe: Nothing with so many people in drag should feel this draggy. Read more
Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times: Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous is as awful as the original was inspired. Read more
Eric Harrison, Houston Chronicle: It's absurd and predictable, but fans of the first movie should like this at least as much. Read more
Lisa Kennedy, Denver Post: Miss Congeniality 2 has some laughs, but many of the jokes seem desperate. Read more
Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly: It's an enjoyable (or at least educational) study of what Bullock and her favored writer-producer Marc Lawrence have rightly identified as the star's best comedy assets. Read more
Philip Wuntch, Dallas Morning News: Miss Congeniality 2's target audience is those desperate for entertainment. Read more
David Chute, L.A. Weekly: The premise of the first Miss Congeniality is unrepeatable by definition, and Gracie is much less interesting as a now-fashion-savvy agent in Las Vegas. Read more
Gene Seymour, Newsday: Isn't a noticeable regression from its predecessor. But it's no advancement either, suggesting the risks inherent in franchise filmmaking. Read more
Lisa Rose, Newark Star-Ledger: The jokes are hit or miss, but the appealing teamwork of Bullock and King gives the movie gleam. Read more
Jami Bernard, New York Daily News: The first film had its moments, not to mention Benjamin Bratt. But this one's contrived enthusiasm for itself is misplaced. Read more
Manohla Dargis, New York Times: It isn't just that Miss Congeniality 2 is nearly absent a single genuine laugh; it's that instead of a screenplay and a story we now have stereotypes and sketch comedy. Read more
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel: Not fabulous, barely even congenial, Armed and Fabulous lets us see the end of Bullock's stardom, even if she doesn't. Read more
James Berardinelli, ReelViews: This is one hideous excuse for a motion picture -- the kind of steaming sewage that occasionally makes life as a film critic seem like an exercise in self-immolation. Read more
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: There is no good reason to go and actually see it. Read more
Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune: Miss Congeniality is the sort of tedious and generic sequel that gives the number 2 a bad name. Read more
Stephen Cole, Globe and Mail: Bullock deserves better. We deserve better. Read more
Susan Walker, Toronto Star: Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous lacks even the limited amusement and appeal brought to the original as a result of some shrewd casting. Read more
Laura Sinagra, Village Voice: As Agent Sam Fuller (some script doctor is grinning somewhere), King is called upon to routinely assault co-workers. Read more
Jen Chaney, Washington Post: A pretty laughless affair. Read more
Ann Hornaday, Washington Post: Like its predecessor, Miss Congeniality 2 is by turns a predictable and outlandishly contrived take on the Pygmalion myth. Read more
