Summary: Such a cute movie!
Review: Reese Witherspoon did such a great job playing Elle Woods. Sure, the plot is a little far-fetched. Come on, airhead girl who works her ass off to get into Harvard Law actually gets in....and she only does it to try and get back with her ex boyfriend! She goes through hell when she's there and then....okay I won't spoil it, but this movie really is cute though. It's so not real. Hence, the perfect movie!

Summary: A Feel-Good Film You'll Watch It Over and Over!!
Review: I love this movie. It is positive, upbeat, and just plain fun. You will always feel good after watching it.
Instead of being the typical rich, snotty, elitish sorrority queen, Reese Witherspoon' s Elle Woods is warm, endearing, funny (especially when she cries during the breakup scene with Warner; her hilarious crying is reminscent of Doris Day's in "Pillow Talk"), and intelligent.
For once the tables are turned and the popular sorrority girl finds herself an outcast with Harvard's staid law school students and professors. But with pluck, determination, and a positive outlook, Elle forges on and eventually wins them over.
The scene where Elle introduces herself to some classmates during Orientation is priceless. After she utters the classic line, "Whoever thought orange was the new pink is seriously disturbed," the reaction from her classmates is absolutely hysterical. I laugh everytime I see it.
The only REALLY dippy-dumb part was the "Bend And Snap" portion. That was really LAME, and really did not fit into the film all that well. To me, that temporarily transformed Elle back into the mindless, air-headed blonde. It just didn't fly.
Other than that portion, this is a cute, fun film. The soundtrack is superb--being from Hawaii, I am a fan of Hoku's music. It's nice to see a local girl make good. (For all of you who don't know, Hoku Ho is Don "Tiny Bubbles" Ho's daughter!)

Summary: For The Underdog
Review: Reese Witherspoon stars in this hilarious movie, LEGALLY BLONDE. She plays Elle Woods, a sorority girl who is determined to get into Harvard Law after her boyfriend tells her she isn't smart enough for him. While it's a cliche plot, it's also very humorous as it pokes fun at itself. The tale is enriched by supporting characters and a well rounded story. Reese Witherspoon's comic timing is excellent, and its impossible not to enjoy her performance here. Elle eventually enters an internship, with her ex boyfriend and his current beau, and they have to defend Brooke, a woman who Elle knew through her sorority. Elle is the only one who belives her innocence and later goes onto to prove her innocence, taking on the case when Callahan her professor makes a move on her, and Brooke dumps him. Its a well timed comedy movie, with some great moments all around. Other actors include Luke Wilson, Selma Blair, and more. The movie has an underlying message for the underdog, no one thought Elle could be a success but she went above and beyond the expecation and did it even though no one thought she could. A must see movie.

Summary: Witherspoon shines once again
Review: 'Legally Blonde' surpassed everyone's expectations last year when it became one of the most successful movies of last summer, even in blockbuster season. The story has Elle Woods (Witherspoon) as the blonde sorority girl who is dumped by her boyfriend because she's not smart enough for him. Determined to prove him wrong she enrolls in Harvard Law School, whereupon she finds he's now engaged to Selma Blair. But she's prepared to steal him back as well as ace her degree.Okay, so the plot is a bunch of fluff that's as empty-headed as the sorority types it tries so desperately to lampoon but with Witherspoon on board it's impossible not to root for her. It's pretty near impossible to read a review that doesn't make at least one reference to the comic genius that was Witherspoon in the biting satire 'Election', and such comic timing is on full display here. Brimming with sexual attitude, naivity and an endearing determination Witherspoon fleshes out the role of Elle admirably. Even with the clichéd story (you can tell right from the get-go who Elle will end up with) she keeps you watching right up until the very end. Still, I don't mean to write off the rest of the people involved in the movie completely because there are plenty of good ideas and observations here. The fact that the clique of sorority girls are, at Harvard, the underdog is a nice reversal of roles that works incredibly well. Still, you do suspect that without Witherspoon on board this would be just another teen movie. But as it is, 'Legally Blonde' positively bubbles with enthusiasm that you'd have to have a heart of stone not to enjoy at least some of it.

Summary: A Poor Man's Clueless
Review: while Reese Witherspoon has some moments the film overall was bland&pure corny.I mean I don't get all the Hype it got.I found it just like so many other films that i have seen that have gone this route.I Prefer "Clueless" far better.that film stayed true to it's subject matter this one wanted to make it more Complex than it should have been.

Summary: It's all been done before!
Review: I guess when "Clueless" and "American Pie" became hits the teen movie industry went over-board. It's always the same story line and the same basic plot. You don't need a high IQ to watch this movie. How many times can film producers use the same basic plot line again and again! I found the movie boring, dull and to be quite frank would much rather go swimming with "Jaws" than watch that again! If you don't buy this movie, it will be one of the best decisions you could make!
