Meanwhile Petrie is unintentionally funny in a separate commentary track. Tragically Lawrence thinks he's hilarious, throwing out lame punchlines like, "Sandy did all of her own eating for this movie." Thankfully Bullock doesn't take herself too seriously, adding, "Yeah, this is a nice double chin shot." It seems Bullock and Lawrence are just having too much of a good time to bother with such trifling matters (see Two Weeks Notice and Forces Of Nature for further proof). No need for incontinence pants here.īullock shares a commentary with co-writer and long-time collaborator Marc Lawrence, but don't expect anything in the way of insights into story or character. Each plays like a minor entry in Bridget Jones Diary except with Bullock doing some bad hip-hop dancing shtick and getting questioned about her sexual orientation at a family wedding. Less amusing are three deleted scenes for which Petrie gives brief introductions. A few outtakes are thrown in to liven things up a bit and, if we're honest, it's difficult not to laugh when Benjamin Bratt gets wrestled to the ground by Bullock, wailing, "She smashed one of my testicles!" For instance, director Donald Petrie pitches the film as "Dirty Harriet goes to the prom" while Bullock reveals that the toughest part of the job is "to walk and talk with breasts that aren't mine". Two behind-the-scenes featurettes are billed as documentaries yet each runs at just over five minutes long and are mostly made up of soundbites. So, as Miss Congeniality 2 primps its hair in readiness, the folks at Warner Bros are releasing this so-called "Deluxe" edition DVD.Ī CD soundtrack for Miss Congeniality 2 is the big selling point for this DVD, but if you're not into the vocal stylings of Liza Minelli and Spiderbait there's not much else to grab your attention. Critics were less than dazzled, but big box office takings ensured a sequel. Sadly, while Bullock has great comedy instincts, this flick only " briefly shows signs of life". Sandra Bullock is a frumpy FBI agent who glams for an undercover gig at the Miss America pageant in Miss Congeniality (2001).
