Summary: Feel Good and Feel Funny!
Review: Legally Blonde is a great feel-good movie, and it's pretty believable. All the jerks get dumped, and all the nice, good people end up happy! The insults and comebacks are top-of-the-line, and everyone has a good time.

Legally Blonde is about a blonde, Elle Woods, who is very intelligent and just applies her intelligence to cosmetics, clothes, and fashion. This is a great movie that supports "girl power" and the intelligence of blondes.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Funny, and cute!
Review: I saw this movie yesterday, and thought it was great! Its about this highschool girl who's going out with a guy named warner. The night he was supposed to propose, he dumped her, why? Because she was too dumb to be his girlfriend considering he was going to Harverd Law School. So Elle,(the main character) decides to make it her mission to win this guy back. She makes it to Harvard(pretty easily) and finds that Law School is a little harder that she thought. Through hard times, and great times, and many suprises, jokes, and even some great court cases(see the movie, u will understand)! This experience of a big "O my god, like what am I to do, I can't go to the mall today, like o no!" to a Graduate of Harverd, you can imagine how much fun this movie was!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good movie
Review: You will laugh. The nice part about this movie is that the funniest parts are actually in it instead of in the previews like so many other "comedies". I highly recommend this movie to anybody-especially if you don't want to think too hard or too long, just sit back and enjoy the ride.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Well Done Feel Good Comedy
Review: I loved it, my wife loved it, and it's one of the few movies I can recommend to my (hem) more senior friends without fear of embarrassment. Plot points in the other reviews aside, what you get is a fun plot, a great sendup (and portrait) of sororities, law school, and trials, and no scenes that you would be nervous about having in a date movie. You won't regret this one. My wife pointed out that she has a different dress in every scene -- I suppose you could have fun figuring out what goes where on the second time through. It's worth seeing twice.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not worth the $7
Review: 'Legally Blonde' has its funny moments - moments where you burst out laughing at how incredibly stupid the situation is, which I guess is the point of the movie. It's fine if a movie wants to be over the top, but 'Legally Blonde' isn't over the top enough to be funny. Sometimes it takes itself seriously and other times you're supposed to laugh at the characters. The plot, of course, is entirely predictable and formulaic, and Luke Wilson's character is just boring.

That's not to say you won't like the movie - the girls I went with liked it. Just be ready to suspend any sort of critical disbelief if you want to laugh.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Lots of fun
Review: Although the myth of the "dumb blonde" will live on after this movie, it was nice to see a film that celebrates human achievement over preconceived notions. The movie is upbeat, encouraging, and lots and lots of fun.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: very impressive
Review: i am a youth director at a small church, and let me tell you how impressed i was by this movie. two girls in the youth group asked me to take them to see this, and i was a little nervous, based on past bad experiences. (example: saving silverman) but i agreed to take them; and after we saw it, i left the theater with a really good feeling about it.

there was *no* sexual humor, and i think they only said "the b-word" once. elle is rich and pretty, but she doesn't discriminate; one of her best friends in the movie has bad blue makeup and lives in a trailer park. a great lesson for my girls to learn.

and, of course, elle spends the whole movie trying to impress her guy, then realizes at the end that she doesn't need him, and can do better.

yes, the movie is stupid and predictable, but it's supposed to be that way. relax and have fun with it!

overall, it was a great movie, and i would 100% recommend it!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Dumb...Movie
Review: I can't believe that I actually spen ...my hard earned money to go see these movie. Don't listen to what the critics say about this movie. So the movie has a "surprisingly well developed plot" huh? Yeah it does, but the plot is is simply one big dumb blonde joke that some idiot decided to make into a movie. Just goes to show the slipping mantality of the American culture. America is beginning act like 11 year olds more and more. Makes me sad to be an American....

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Legally Blond Review
Review: After seeing the movie, I was amazed. It was a great move about being true to yourself and not giving up no matter what happens. It was a real girl power movie. It would be great for movie night with friends, family, etc. You should go see the movie, and you will be amazed how wonderful and funny it is.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A great movie and a star turn for Reese Witherspoon
Review: Though comparisons to "Clueless" abound, this movie was indeed all about Reese. Despite success in smaller roles in movies such as "Cruel Intentions" she has never really gotten the same spotlight that has been afforded to other younger actresses.

While not the most mentally challenging movie, the script of "Legally Blonde" not only gives her her first leading lady role, but a cute and inspirational story about starting out an underdog and ending up on top.

Lots of great one-liners, a good supporting cast, the only weakness of the film (and my 4 vs. 5 star rating) is in the end.. a bit too contrived and cheeseball, but nonetheless a very entertaining movie. Saw it opening night and the theater was packed, and the whole audience seemed to enjoy it. Great summer movie.
