Miss Congeniality 2000

The Good:

• Sandra Bullock is well suited as a badass female FBI agent going undercover.
• The chemistry between Bullock and Benjamin Bratt works.

The Bad:

• The whole movie is about a bunch of incompetent male cops messing around either making fun of or creepily stalking beautiful women and an overly obviously masculine female cop trying to learn how to be a lady.
• Bullock's performance turns awkward in several scenes and it's difficult to watch and enjoy her messing around.
• Michael Caine in a totally misplaced and awkward part. He does it well, as always, but it doesn't suit him at all.
• The dialogue is cringe-worthy, with terrible one-liners and jokes that always fall flat.
• The film forgets it's supposed to be a crime film and turns into a chick-flick and a guide on how to be a lady instead.
• Despite its romantic tendencies, it has no emotional impact or dramatic tension.
• I have nerve liked William Shatner outside of Star Trek and this film is no exception. He "singing" is the worst thing of the entire movie.
• The script plays around with stereotypes and fails to break them.
• The finale is hilariously messy - in all the wrong ways.
• The entire movie is awkward and uncomfortable to watch; it's hopelessly dated in today's world and is neither a good comedy nor a good cop movie.

Verdict:
It's never funny and never exciting; this awkward and outdated comedy is an uncomfortable ride to sit through.
