Summary: Contrived and Stupid
Review: Boring, contrived sequel with outrageously stupid storyline. Even Reese couldn't save this one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Inspiring, educational, and fun
Review: I wasn't a huge fan of the first movie, but I loved this one. It was great to see the animal rights message and the push for activisim in this film. It is certainly time to bring both center stage, and this movie does that in a fun way.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: ILLegally BLAND
Review: A real disappointment. I found the original to be funny because it played "silly" off of serious/tense situations (Harvard Law School, a murder trial, shattered relationships, etc.) All these serious situations provided enough material to sustain a full-length movie.

Legally Blonde 2 plays silly off of silly situations. The result of silly on top of silly ends up being just plain stupid. The story would have been more suited for a short skit on a comedy show such as SNL. It was agonizing to continue watching, and hoping the movie would pick up and justify my having rented it. I'm appalled that Ms. Witherspoon would bring herself down to this level after such a successful swing in her career.

If you're considering watching this movie for the first time, do yourself a favor and retain the magic by watching the first film again.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: IF I could rate it ZERO stars - I would!
Review: I found the first Legally Blonde movie silly but fun. This movie doesn't have one moment worth watching. I won't bore you with a long review - but, trust me - rent or buy something else!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Message We All Need
Review: I haven't seen the first Legally Blonde movie, but I just finished watching this one - and I LOVED it. Even though there was humor, it didn't connect to me as much as the positive messages did. There may be loads of negative reviews here, but I think people are a bit oblivious to how some people like me see this movie. Reese Witherspoon stars in this funny, inspiring story about a woman with a dream who went against all odds to have her voice heard and to make a change.

When lawyer Elle Woods finds out that her beloved dog's mother is the victim of cosmectic testing, she makes it her job to fight for the rights of all animals. Because of this, her peers see her as not being serious and she loses her job. She becomes disappointed at first, but she soon realizes that losing her job was just a stumbling block. Soon, she takes her fight to Washington D.C. In a world full of manipulative, backstabbing, and pessimistic politicians, Elle struggles to have her voice heard - but, she slowly starts to win over people's hearts and she gains more support as she fights for what she believes in. Although she is fighting for the rights of animals all around, she soon realizes a hole that she needs to crawl out of. She realizes that while she's speaking out for those who can't speak, her own voice isn't being heard.

Elle Woods makes it also her duty to enlighten people that they themselves can make a difference. She teaches us that even though there are those who will bring us down, and even though there may come times when the odds are stacked against us, we can make it through anything that's placed in front of us if we beleive in ourselves. She makes us realize that there are many injustices that happen in everyday life that we don't bother to get involved in - and because of this, we're hurting ourselves and only make things worse for ourselves. If we, as people, begin to make others hear our voices, we can accomplish anything. We may be insecure, we may be frightened, but deep down, we know what we want - we just need to find that strength - we need to find that courage to achieve what we believe in ... We need to trust in ourselves -- Only then will we come out the winners.

That's why I love this movie. Sure, it may leave some people disappointed. Sure, to some, the acting may be bogus - but I looked past all of that and I found a beautiful message that we all need to realize. We all need to realize that even if you think that you can't make a difference ... Really, it doesn't matter who you are ... YOU can make a difference. All you gotta do is believe in yourself, and you can achieve anything.

I'm 15 years old, and I don't give a damn what anyone else thinks about these words coming from me. I love this movie.

If there's anyone out there looking for inspiration to believe in themselves - that they can make a change ... this is the movie to see.

Summary: This movie sucked!
Review: I rented this movie last night...I was so excited as I loved the first one. All I can say was, huge disappointment! This movie was terrible. I'm happy I didn't spend $10.00 in the theatre watching it!

All in all, don't even bother to watch this horrid sequel! It could have been much funnier, sadly the movie wasn't even close.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: It's like watching a trainwreck...
Review: I really loved the first legally blonde movie. I enjoy watching Reese Witherspoon as an actress in many movies, but Legally Blonde 2 was like watching a trainwreck. Although, the story was horribly contrived and way over the top...one who starts watching it, cannot help but see it to the end. From the moment that Elle went to a private detective to find brusier's mother...I felt like banging my head against the wall--from there it only got worse.
If you must see this movie, do yourself a favor and rent it. It is not worth buying.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: So dumb, it should be illegal!
Review: This movie was full of bad acting, bad writing, and badly disguised propoganda. I loved the first one and I, like some of the other reviewers, felt that the first movie must have just been bait. The producers wanted to draw us in and make us fall in love with the characters so we would see the sequel which contained the "real" message. Don't see this movie if you are not in favor of gay marriages and are not a strong animal rights activist. It will make you angry.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: "Barbie and Fifi go to Congress"?
Review: This is the film currently playing on Aeroflot's flights from Moscow back to the USA. Talk about being a captive audience! The premise appears to be this: a ditsy blonde goes to Washington to pass legislation against animal-testing. All well and good, but the perkiness and bubblyness and blondness and all the pink, pink, pink outfits -- including her dog's! -- really start to get tiresome, FAST! I shut off my headset, thereby eliminating 50% of the irritation. But there's still all that PINK...! Yikes! The other annoying thing about this film is, it seems to go on darn near as long as the international flight. I actually found Aeroflot's destination maps and altitude/airspeed info more entertaining than this inane in-flight movie offering. Much as I despise the term "chick flick", I believe this film must fit its description.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Did Sally Field Need extra Cash Or Sumthin?
Review: The first Legally Blonde was a rip off of CLUELESS and the sequel is a rip-off of PROTOCOL (Goldie Hawn). This was a mess of a movie. I did laugh when Reese was trying to remember the name of "The Hopper", but the rest of the movie was just horrible, especially the cheerleaders in the middle of Congress. UGH.
