Summary: A movie that underestimates it's audience
Review: This was one of those movies where you wonder, who thinks this is funny? Gay dogs and hiring a private investigator to find a dog's mother is just a few of the far-fetched plot lines in this movie. I did not like the story, it was really stupid ( I know stupid is a strong word to use, but I really think it is). As far as the acting, I've always liked Reese Witherspoon, she was great in Election, Cruel Intentions and Legally blond 1 as well as some other movies. But in this movie her acting skills were overshadowed by the story. It went on too long and at the end I just didn't care anymore.
Do not rent this movie and expect it to be on par with Legally blond 1.

Summary: A Blonde Sequel
Review: Elle Woods is shocked to learn that her dog's mother is being held prisoner at an animal testing facility. Since she wants the dog to attend her upcoming wedding, she immediately sets out to get her freed and heads down to Washington DC to make Congress pass a bill to ban animal testing, thereby freeing the dog.Having been a fan of the original, I went into this movie with high hopes. Boy, was I disappointed. The first movie presented Elle as a smart person when it was something she was interested in who had to grow and mature to reach a new goal. We could sympathize with her and root for her, especially as we saw her heart of gold come through. Here, she just appears clueless, blindly going from plot point to plot point. The movie also presents a very pessimistic view of our government. Yet Elle is still able to proceed through in an oblivious manner. The movie might have been more fun if the supporting characters from the first movie had come back, but they are basically reduced to expanded cameos. Furthermore, the movie goes overboard in its PC agenda. Basically, it's unbelievable. The laughs are few and far between in this far inferior sequel. Do yourself a favor and stick with the original.

Summary: Poor sequel
Review: For those of you who enjoyed the first Legally Blonde, don't ruin the image by seeing the sequel to it. The second Legally Blonde's plot is so ridiculous it is at times painful to watch. While Reese Witherspoon still plays Elle Woods to perfection, other actors are less than desirable. This includes Sally Fields who plays a role on Capitol Hill. (That was hard to write as I like Sally Fields. :( Bottomline here is: Blondes don't always have the most fun.

Summary: Dumb blonde?
Review: The main reason I was so disappointed in "Legally Blonde 2" was because I enjoyed the first one so much. What could have been a humorous and heartwarming look at Elle Woods' first journeys into the real world of law turns into a ridiculous parade of sorority sisters, pink dresses, outrageous hairdos, and gay dogs. In the first film, I liked how Elle started off as a superficial character and really had to prove that she was a smart, capable human being. It was like she became an entirely different, more admirable person at the end of the movie. In this sequel, she still has a heart of gold. The whole premise of the film centers around her battle to make animal testing illegal so she can save the mother of her canine companion Bruiser. What Elle IS missing in this film is the maturity level she reached upon graduating from Harvard Law. I think this grown-up quality was necessary so as to not make her character seem so out of place in Washington DC. And BOY does she seem out of place! But since we have to suspend disbelief for the sake of Hollywood dramatic license, Elle does not get laughed right out of Congress (which is what would happen in real life). It takes a little time and some silly stunts, but the older, more conservative figures do eventually embrace her and her position on the treatment of animals. You may notice that there are a lot of simillarites to the first film. First of all, there is a rude coworker, played by Regina King, who tries to rain on Elle's parade. Selma Blair anyone? There is also a hotel doorman named Sidney (Bob Newhart) who gives Elle vital information about the members of Congress. He basically picks up where Luke Wilson's character left off in the first film. But the biggest similarity of all is the plot. Elle must once again dodge insults and nonbelievers in order to make her point. In the end, it is her knowledge of beauty products (in the first film: perms, in this film: facials) that exposes the truth about a wrongdoing. On the whole, "Legally Blonde 2" is completely farfetched. It does have a few funny moments and lines of dialogue, but it falls flat and becomes too silly to be legitimate. I've seen worse, but I think this film could have been so much more.

Summary: First one was better
Review: I LOVED the first Legally Blonde movie. While it wasn't realistic, it was fun and a real joy to watch. I figured the second one would be decent too, but I was disappointed. Don't get me wrong, I think Reese Witherspoon is fantastic and she did a great job - I just thought the storyline was a little overboard. Personally, I wish the story had focused less on the dog, because while seeing the dog dressed up in pink is funny, it gets old when they try to plot the entire movie around it! Even so, the movie had some really funny parts (though I wish there had been more Luke Wilson!) and was worth seeing at least once. :)

Summary: Not as good as the first, but still has charm of its own
Review: In the first Legally Blonde, we meet Elle Woods (Reese Witherspoon)a blonde party girl. Her boyfriend breaks up with her when he goes to Harvard Law. To get him back she goes to Harvard Law also. By the end of the movie, she is getting married to somebody else, someone she really loves. In the second movie, Elle's friends plan a bridal shower for her. But for her wedding she wants to have her dog's family there as well. She finds out that Brusier's (her dog's) mother is in a cosmetic testing facility. On Elle's race to save her, she tries to out law all animal testing facilities. This movie is ok. It has some funny scenes, but it misses the humor of the first movie. It is worth seeing once.

Review: this movie was amazing, people who disliked the movie. REALIZE in the first one she was a dumb blonde. HELLO at the end when she left Harvard she was a valedictorian. Which means she is not the dumb blonde most people remember. SHE GREW UP.

Summary: Makeup and Hair Tips WONT save the day! (3.5)
Review: This movie was extremely dissapointing. It could of been so much better, the first one was funny and well acted and this one was not funny and overdone. Elle Woods wants to save her puppies mother. Typical, kinda cute. I thought at the beginning its not too bad but it turned worse. The acting isn't bad - dont get me wrong - but the way it was done was just terrible. However, if you liked the first one watch it and decide for yourself - its not that bad. I dont think I would buy it but you might enjoy it.

Summary: Could Have Been SO Much Better
Review: I really loved the first 'Legally Blonde', it's one of my favourite movies. So I was quite pleased when I heard they were making a sequel because even though sequels aren't normally that good, I figured more Legally Blonde could hardly be bad!
I figured wrong.
Partly, I think it was that the themes of the movie - politics and animal rights - really don't interest me that much. I would have much preferred LB2 where Elle was still in criminal law as that would have appealed to me a lot more. But another thing I liked about the original movie was the way it prized brains and showed the viewer that just because someone acts fluffy doesn't mean they actually are. This movie seems to be completely going against that. It's Elle's fluff, rather than her brains, which help her to save the day - one part that particularly annoyed me was that after someone accuses animal rights petitioners of using cheap sappiness and cute pictures to get people on their side, Elle goes and does exactly that in her speech for 'Bruiser's Law'.
The humour varied from brilliant (the sorority phone-in) to trying too hard (the whole subplot about Bruiser and the Rottweiler.) The opposition to Elle seemed much vaguer in this film than in the last - Grace is faded out over the second half and seems a completely cardboard character, the congresswoman is won over way too quickly with some sorority connections...basically, I just felt the film-makers missed a golden opportunity and instead chose to play up Elle's wackiness and ditziness. It wasn't a completely terrible movie, there were some good parts in it and the cast were impressive, but I wouldn't recommend it if you aren't very, very interested in cute lickle fluffy animals. I'm not exactly for animal testing - it depends on what's being tested - but I resent trying to be won over by sentimental arguments.
