Legally Blonde

Pros: Funny and sweet
Cons: Some weak characters and weak beginning

I wasn't sure if I'd like "Legally Blonde" when I first went to see it. I worried it might be a typical teen movie about sex and fart jokes. Yet, it had a funny premise and Reese Witherspoon (one of the few good teen actresses) was in it and I had been...

Pros: Reese Witherspoon, Selma Blair, a guilty pleaure sort of story
Cons: A guilty pleasure sort of story. A non-guilty displeasure direction and filming.

I want Paul Newman, Katherine Hepburn, Spencer Tracy and Reese Witherspoon to represent me in the lawsuit I have going on in my head weekly, as I sue everyone involved in the making of 1) Air Force One, 2) Rules of Engagement, 3) The Grinch, and 4)...

Pros: Clueless goes to Harvard Law School...better than you might anticipate
Cons: A formula plot that takes no chances...You can correctly guess exactly how it'll end.

When I first considered what to write in my review of Legally Blonde, I considered opening it with a blonde joke or anecdote.

Good thing I changed my mind...and rightfully so. I probably would have been sued by someone for...

Pros: Reese Witherspoon's strong, sunny performance, delightful plot
Cons: Elle's admittance into Harvard Law School is a bit unbelievable

Grade: B+

Elle Woods (Reese Witherspoon), though branded with those stereotype-smeared, sun-kissed California girl tresses, is determined to win back her preppy, predictable ex-beau, Warner (Matthew Davis). And she’s willing to forego frat...

Pros: She's cute, perky and colorful, and it's contagious - a no-brainer feel-good movie
Cons: I will never look like that and I will never go to Harvard Law

"It doesn't really matter what the movie is about if I can look at Reese Witherspoon for two hours." - A quote from my charming fiancé as we ordered our popcorn right before the movie.

About an hour and a half later...

"I guess it...

Pros: If you're a Reese Witherspoon fan, this is yours to savor
Cons: Stereotypes galore and a by-the-numbers script

Reese Witherspoon, the star of the inexplicable box-office hit Legally Blonde, has struck me as smug and self-satisfied ever since she played Paul Newman's runaway daughter in Twilight. Giving her a starring role, especially in a movie that...

Pros: Some funny moments, Reese Witherspoon gives it her all.
Cons: Pretty stupid overall and very predictable.

Legally Blonde is just about the most giddy movie ever. It's about Elle Woods, a terminally chipper college student, who has just about the perfect life- she's blonde, beautiful, dating the guy of her dreams, and on top of it all she's smart, at least...

Pros: good, clean fun
Cons: lacks some character development and some continuity

Hey, I liked Clueless. I'm glad that the concept was carried out to another movie. There just aren't a lot of (generally) wholesome movies out there that actually make you laugh out loud. If you're sick of the dry drug humor and overly gross...

Pros: Great feel good movie of the summer.
Cons: Not enough of the men bashing I had hoped there would be.

I will preface this epinions by stating that I liked this movie... a lot. I saw the previews when my girlfriends and I went to see AI, and I knew it would be this year's Clueless. I enjoyed Clueless... so if you have tomatoes... throw them now and lets...

Pros: Moments of Humor, Acting
Cons: Contrived plot, Overbearing soundtrack, Lack of Character Development, Look, Obviousness, Most humor, Details

It's hard to expect much of a film like "Legally Blonde" when one reads the plot summary on the back of the video and the plot seems like such teen fare. In fact, one doesn't get more teen oriented than the Hollywood beautiful young woman going off...

Pros: Charismatic performance from Reese Witherspoon
Cons: A plot that should not be examined too closely. Gratuitous chihuahua.

Legally Blond is the story of one spunky gal’s struggle to overcome the social handicaps of beauty, brains, popularity, and wealth.

No, wait. Its the story of one valiant girl’s struggle to undergo a complete personality change in...

Pros: Well produced and directed; decent acting
Cons: Utterly predictible, ludicrously unrealistic

Legally Blonde is about beautiful blonde socialite Elle Woods (Reese Witherspoon) who decides to attend Harvard Law School. She receives this sudden inspiration after her boyfriend and hoped-to-be fiance dumps her. He is going to Harvard himself, and...

Pros: Reese Witherspoon's keen fashion sense and humor
Cons: "Blondes in mirror are less ditsy than they appear"

Dad and Mom enjoyed the movie very much.

Daughter #1 (14 years old)
Legally Blonde was an excellent movie directed mainly for teenage girls. Elle Woods,
(Reese Witherspoon from Cruel Intentions) played her role perfect, and made you...

Pros: Hilarious, feel-good comedy
Cons: You have to appreciate blond stereotypes and sight gags

"Legally Blonde" is the tale of Elle Woods (Reese Witherspoon), social queen and chief blonde of her sorority. Elle has a 4.0 GPA in fashion merchandising and a future US Senator for a boyfriend. Everything in her life appears picture perfect from her...

Pros: funny, stereotypes nicely highlighted
Cons: very predictable and little substance, little more than cliches

Since there are so many (bad) jokes about blondes and some cases in real life that fit the stereotype. However, it makes for the theme of this movie and realistically, that's about all you can expect. A blonde that at first fits all the stereotypes...
