Rating: Summary: Not what I had expected! Review: When I heard of this movie, I automatically thought of a stereotypical chick flick. I was right about the chick flick part, but I really enjoyed this movie. I found it hilarious in some parts with a somewhat believable storyline to it. This is a very entertaining movie with plenty of laughs. (Now I can't wait until I see the sequel...)
Rating: Summary: Overused blonde cliches... Great idea! Review: this movie puts all of those blonde cliches to sleep. it pries on them then uses them to the movie's advantage. I love this movie and now i'm an even bigger fan of Reese witherspoon. Great movie for a girl's night in or just to lift your spirits.
Rating: Summary: Good bad flick Review: In spite of the fact that the plot makes no sense at all, and the characters are essentially cartoon figures, there are quite a few laugh-out-loud moments (especially involving the UPS delivery man, who steals the show!) Silly fluff, but a nice rental for a quiet evening at home with your sweetie.....
Rating: Summary: A Perfect Day and a perfect comedy. Review: From the opening song to the "right on" finally this is a very well done comedy for the whole family. It passes the Mom and Dad" test, becuase my wife an I liked it. It passes the "Repeat Viewing" test, becuase the second time we watched, the kids actually stayed in the room and watched. I has expected this to be a femanist manufesto movie, but we are never lectured to or preached to. What we have is a story about a smart, pretty california girl, destined to be a beauty queen, who chases her boy friend to Harvard Law. The message here is that hard work has its rewards for men and women and it is wrapped up in a fun to watch package. PS. check out the sound track... it has some good music on it that my 6 and 10 year daughters liked. There is no nudity, no simulated sex and the language is acceptable, so this is safe for younger viewers.

Rating: Summary: Witherspoon slides into Goldie Hawn's Comic Shoes Review: I've never been a Reese Witherspoon fan; however, Legally Blond has changed that opinion. Witherspoon not only carries the movie, but shines as the eternally optimistic if not naïve Elle Woods who initially believes that success in life is predicated on what others think of you, but grows to understand that belief in oneself is the key to personal success. The film actually reminded me of Goldie Hawn in 1984's Protocol; like Elle, Hawn's "Sunny" is an eternally optimistic blond stuck in a fish out of water situation.While Witherspoon glows, the rest of the cast spends its screen time playing stereotypical roles that help "Elle" develop the inner confidence to carry on. However, it is Luke Wilson, playing Witherspoon's champion "Emmett" that delivers a performance that one only sees once every 19 years. Not since Chris Sarandon played opposite of Goldie Hawn in "Protocol" has an "actor" so effectively played an emotionless piece of wood. Like Sarandon, Wilson is tall, dark haired prop, and performs adequately. We know he is acting when he cocks his head (support), gooses his neck (encouragment), and wears a white suit to show he's the good guy. But the movie isn't about Elle and Emmett, its about Elle and the producers were correct to place Wilson in this role to prevent a real actor from drawing attention away from Witherspoon. Despite these flaws, this is Witherspoon's movie and its worth 90 minutes of your time. Sit back, relax and just try not to think too hard.
Rating: Summary: very cute Review: A very cute movie, not just a "chick flick."
