Miss Congeniality (2000)


An FBI agent must go undercover in the Miss United States beauty pageant to prevent a group from bombing the event.

The star cast can't help it: this variation on the Pygmalion story is a quite unfunny fair.

Halliwell*: "A broad comedy of a familiar kind with a few good laughs among the pratfalls."

Maltin**1/2: "All-to-predictable comedy...Likable cast (with Caine a standout) does its best with a disappointing script."
