Plot: Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous catches up with FBI Agent Gracie Hart (SANDRA BULLOCK) shortly after she successfully disarmed a threat against the Miss United States Pageant while working undercover as a contestant in Miss Congeniality and became an overnight media sensation.Things haven’t been going so well for her lately. Reeling from a broken romance and frustrated to find her newfound fame is jeopardizing the undercover work she loves, Gracie reluctantly lets her boss, Agent McDonald (ERNIE HUDSON), talk her into serving the Bureau in the only way now possible: coifed and styled for the talk show circuit as “the face of the FBI.” Capitalizing on the greatest PR coup in agency history, the FBI presses their new poster girl into a whirl of photo ops where she re-enacts her pageant exploits to an adoring public, with the help of personal stylist Joel (DIEDRICH BADER) to smooth her rougher edges. Though resistant at first, Gracie soon warms to the attention and 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.

 "Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous" (what's with these pointless subtitles lately?) comes with little originality or heavy message, but it is not a retread of the original and it comes with plenty of laughs. Its main fault is overscripting, just like its name's pointless, colon separated subtitle. B-,B---Robin and Laura Clifford
Miss Congeniality 2 is an easy-bake concoction. It’s no better or worse than the original. It rests on that same even ground, where it’s batting at absolute zero. Its effortless viewing. Something for the brain-dead to stare at.  --B. Alan Orange (MovieWeb)
...Bill Shatner couldn’t save this predictable, unfunny, unoriginal and most unfortunately…unentertaining motion picture from being what it truly is: yet another unambitious Hollywood fluffpiece born out of greed, sloth and safety nets. 3/10--'JoBlo' (JoBlo.com)
Lacklustre sequel that’s too long and not nearly funny enough but stays watchable thanks to Bullock’s engaging screen persona.  --Matthew Turner (ViewLondon)

It's harmless, if hopeless. Had "Con 2" attempted to launch the franchise, there would be no sequel. Millions who laughed through the original will figure that out over the next four days.  --Ed Blank
I was no fan of the first "Miss Congeniality," finding it average and unimaginative. The sequel is predictable, dumb and flaccid, too, but to a greater degree. It is everything its predecessor was, and less. D+--Eric D. Snider (EricDSnider.com)
