Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous


This film is the punishment for when you are so lazy on a Sunday night that you end up watching whatever is on Cable. No one would surely watch something this bad on purpose. I have no excuse and deserve having lost an hour and a half of my time to this tripe. I had after all seen the banality of the original and should have been prepared for more of the same. Of course, #2 is much worse. The grain of originality in the concept of the tough FBI agent having to put on a demure and sophisticated façade is now old hat and we do not even have the small pleasure of Michael Caine’s company, as he sensibly excused himself from the sequel. The rescue scene stands out as the dumbest moment in a sea of stupidity. The feather boa getting caught and nearly causing our heroic agent to drown had me laughing out load and shaking my head in disbelief. Avoid at all costs. Re-runs of The Love Boat translated into Russian would be preferable.
