Legally Blonde

Pros: Witty, cheerful girl-power story, propelled by Reese Witherspoon
Cons: Formulaic, lighter-than-air script

It's a "Pretty in Pink"/"Clueless" coming-of-age story for the new millennium as Elle Woods (Reese Witherspoon), a perky Southern California sorority queen, switches from fashion to law in order to win back her yuppy boyfriend (Matthew Davis) who's...

Pros: A genuinely funny look at girls with golden hair, Reese delivers a knockout performance.
Cons: Loaded with cliches, will fry any man's circuits with an excess of pink and blonde.

Pros: Characters Are Well Done, Elle Makes A Great Example Of Her Abilities
Cons: I Really Doubt Many Men Would Actually Appreciate This Movie...

Legally Blonde is simply another “teenage-girl” movie, targeted at the High School age groups. Because of the content of this film, I cannot imagine forcing a male to as much as watch this film, because I’m sure that they wouldn’t find it that ...

Pros: Faultless and important theme executed to absolute perfection.
Cons: Mediocre Acting. Not my favorite teenyboppers. Not especially fun to watch. Not for everyone.

I know I am burning tons of reputational capital just by thinking these thoughts, but I cannot dissemble before my loyal readers. Therefore, without reservation, I must recommend this film and give it five stars. Not that I especially enjoyed watching...

Pros: Fun and witty.
Cons: Predicatable.

Pros: Subversively intelligent
Cons: Dumb, on the surface

Pros: A few good belly laughs
Cons: A little too many blondes, predictable plot

This evening I returned from seeing Legally Blonde, a recent comedy starring Reese Witherspoon. Now I love a good comedy, so my wife and I went to see this. I can honestly say that going into it, I wanted to see it more than my wife, but she...

Pros: Entertaining film, proves stereotyping individuals on first impressions are not always correct.
Cons: not really any cons with this film

Having been born and lived my entire life as a blonde, I can relate to all of the stereotypical comments someone will endure whose genetic composition has left them to survive life known as a Dumb Blonde! As my little boy once asked when he was around...

Pros: Amazingly well-scripted
Cons: Rather formulaic

Elle Woods (Reese Witherspoon) has everything a girl could want. A membership in a really cool sorority, a really fine boyfriend, and a degree in fashion merchandising. Nearly all of her goals in life had been met, with the exception of the most sought...

Pros: Funny satire of blondes. Good easy to watch eye candy.
Cons: Unrealistic plot.

The summer is here. And with the summer is the release of many movies all vying for the top spot of biggest blockbuster. There's your film staring a hot guy, some lovin', some action...and probably the longest movie out there. Such as this summer's...

Pros: Reese Witherspoon and her two friends, Jennifer Coolidge, Holland Taylor and Selma Blair.
Cons: Some rather adult situations, language and some cursing that seems out of place.

Legally Blond is all about not judging a book by it’s cover. Just because you think you know what you are going to get when you date a blond doesn’t mean you will actually get the punch line to a blond joke. I didn’t want to see this movie, but...

Pros: Hilarious, Good moral lesson
Cons: Not entirely realistic

It has been a long time since I have been to a movie where the patrons actually applauded during the showing. This was one of those films. I knew from the first time I saw the previews that I wanted to see this film. I could tell it would be funny,...

Pros: Great Summer Film with a good message for young teens
Cons: Some parents may find some sexual references objectionable for teens

This film seemed like just a fun summer movie. Since we ran out of action films to see I persuaded my husband to take me to see Legally Blonde. (he prefers to see what he calls "big screen only films" at the theater..you know movies for guys, action,...

Pros: Some fun pokes at stereotypes. A lot of chuckles and a few big laughs.
Cons: Might be a bit light-weight for some.

Last night I had an overwhelming desire to see a movie and with nothing else really taking my fancy I opted for a "special advance screening" of Legally Blonde, which doesn't officially open here in Australia for a couple of weeks.

...

Pros: Reese Witherspoon. Smart Blondes, not dumb blondes.
Cons: Shallow. Much of it is easily forgotten.

This is as light of a comedy as you might imagine. I would have liked it to also be witty and to have taken at least some chances, but for light humor it worked very well. Reese Witherspoon plays Elle Wood, who is one of those girls that you think ...
