Trivialidades:

The news station that shows Gracie is KSAT 12, which is really a local news in San Antonio.

Errores:

Errores cometidos por los personajes (posiblemente errores deliberados por los cineastas): In the first scene that shows the bomb maker at work, little circuit boards designed specifically to help solder to integrated circuits are on his desk. Yet the camera then moves to show him doing it the hard way under a magnifying glass with bare wires. He's got the boards right there under his nose and yet doesn't use them.

Citas:

[after McDonald sees himself in a bikini on the computer]
Eric Matthews: We were just looking for someone to go undercover at the Pageant, sir.
McDonald: And I'm the best we got. That doesn't inspire much confidence.

silly material made worthwhile

Good-natured and funny comedy has Bullock perfectly cast as an uptight, tomboyish federal agent who, for the first time in her entire life, embraces her feminine ways after she's assigned to go undercover at a beauty pageant to try and apprehend an elusive criminal. She's never even worn a dress, much less makeup and accessories and the results are hilarious as she tries to do her job and be a credible contestant as well. Slightly predictable at times, but kept afloat by a meaningful story, good lines, and big time laughs. Bullock has never been more appealing, and she's surrounded here by a first-rate supporting cast. ***
