A double-helping of Sandra Bullock comedies. In ' Miss Congeniality' (2000), when the Miss United States beauty pageant receives a threat from a notorious criminal, hardnosed FBI agent Gracie Hart (Bullock) is assigned to go undercover as a contestant in the competition & track him down. Gracie is none too happy about this, & when top expert Victor Melling (Michael Caine) arrives to help transform her from a tomboy into a convincingly elegant Miss New Jersey, she proves to be a most difficult student. Nevertheless, after Gracie enters the pageant, she soon forms a strong bond with her fellow contestants, & begins to worry for their safety as the killer continues to elude arrest. In the sequel, ' Miss Congeniality 2' (2005), things haven't been going so well for Gracie lately. Reeling from a broken romance & frustrated to find her newfound fame is jeopardizing the undercover work she loves, Gracie reluctantly agrees to serve the Bureau in the only way possible: coifed & styled for the talk show circuit as 'the face of the FBI'. Though resistant at first, she soon warms to the attention & it's not long before she's getting into her new role a little too much. Her new partner Sam Fuller (Regina King), a tough, ambitious agent who is clearly not her biggest fan, is the first to point out that the pampered Bureau star is turning into FBI Barbie. But when Gracie's best friend, pageant winner Cheryl Frazier (Heather Burns), & emcee Stan Fields (William Shatner), are kidnapped in Las Vegas, Gracie's crime-fighting instincts kick back in. Not wanting to risk losing their greatest PR asset, the FBI top brass forbid her to get involved & charge Sam with keeping her in line. But when it comes to breaking a difficult case & helping her friends, there's nothing Gracie won't do. ...
