New York Daily News Jami Bernard
Miss Congeniality would not be out of place as a TV series, so it makes sense that Candice Bergen and William Shatner appear as pageant co-hosts.

Boston Globe Jay Carr
She (Bullock) has a way of landing on her feet and remaining simpatico no matter how cheesy the script is. That's what happens here.

Film.com Robert Horton
It all coalesces in a TV-level pleasantness, which isn't quite enough to fill a big screen.

Chicago Sun-Times Roger Ebert
It isn't bad so much as it lacks any ambition to be more than it so obviously is.

New York Post Jonathan Foreman
Has some entertaining moments, thanks mainly to Bullock herself, who is surprisingly glamorous as well as endearing.

Variety Robert Koehler
Stumbling its way down the comedy runway, Miss Congeniality is yet another miscalculated vehicle for the ever-feisty Sandra Bullock.

The New York Times Dana Stevens
Supporting performances add comic spark to a movie that otherwise seems happily, deliberately second-rate.

Chicago Reader Lisa Alspector
The kind of ugly-duckling role that's long been ironic for her (Bullock).

Washington Post Michael O'Sullivan
The jokes are lame, the set-up is stupid and Bullock, occasionally a winsome comedienne and here a co-producer, is annoying as heck.

Rolling Stone Peter Travers
I'd rather be buried in a mound of Floridian chad than watch director Donald Petrie force Bullock to jump through another desperately unfunny comic hoop.
