Miss Congeniality The Deluxe Edition Miss Congeniality 2 CD Soundtrack

Product Description DVD Features: Additional Scenes Other:CD SOUNDTRACK Additional Features Yet another DVD rerelease timed to coincide with the theatrical opening of the movie's sequel, the deluxe edition of Miss Congeniality is mostly appealing for including a movie coupon for Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous. The best features--two commentary tracks, one by Sandra Bullock and executive producer-writer Marc Lawrence and the other by director Donald Petrie, plus two seven-minute featurettes--are retained from the original DVD. New to this edition are five minutes of deleted scenes, which are all worth watching, but Petrie introduces each one with an explanation of how it wasn't needed in the final cut. There's also an eight-minute preview of Miss Congeniality 2 and an overlong and unfunny quiz called "Do You Have What It Takes to Be a Beauty Queen?" introduced and read by William Shatner. If you want Miss Congeniality on DVD, the deluxe edition is a good choice. But if you already have the first DVD, there's no compelling reason to upgrade. If you're also interested in the Miss Congeniality 2 soundtrack, this version does come with that CD at a decent savings. --David Horiuchi
