I have always wanted to learn to sing. If you've heard me sing to the radio in my car, you know what I mean.
Well, Special Agent Gracie Hart enforces the keys to S.I.N.G.ing in Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous.
Hart, played by Sandra Bullock, is a loyal FBI agent. She is receiving such overwhelming publicity for her role in the Miss United States Pageant that her career has been compromised.
McDonald, played by Ernie Hudson, convinces her to do public relations for the FBI.
Her relationship with Eric Matthews, played by Benjamin Bratt in the first Miss Congeniality, is not going as planned, which I found to be disappointing since I thought they ended the first movie pretty steamy.
So Hart takes the opportunity to be the "face of the FBI" and lets all the attention go to her head. .
Assignments are being handed out when Hart gets assigned a bodyguard, Agent Sam Fuller.
Fuller, played by Regina King, is a tough, put- up-with-nothing kind of woman.
The assignment is to go to Las Vegas and save Hart's friend, Cheryl Frasier, who won the pageant.
Frasier, played by Heather Burns, and Stan Fields, played by William Shatner, are kidnapped and need Hart's help.
Between going undercover and faking a "woman problem," Hart and Fuller keep the audience laughing.
For a good time, it is worth seeing.
