Summary: Pretty Bad
Review: I don't see how people could give 5 stars review for this flick. The whole time I though I was watching a Disney movie the humor was really bad and played out. The movie got ... boring and predictable fast ...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A FUN, LIGHTHEARTED MOVIE!
Review: Three generations of our family attended this movie and each of us walked away smiling! Reese Witherspoon stayed true to her "Legally Blonde" character and was absolutely charming! I think it's wonderful, in an age where sex, profanity and violence rule the screen, to have a movie that you can walk away from without blushing, feeling grossed-out or feeling that you'd had too big a dose of *REALITY* ... we all left the theater with a great feeling of happiness!

Though this movie was lighthearted and fun, it was not without its "life lessons" ... it's main point (presented in several ways throughout the movie) is "have the courage to remain true to yourself"! It's pretty gutsy, these days, for a star to perform in a clean-cut movie ... which makes it very clear that Reese Witherspoon is "walking the walk", not just "talking the talk"! We are definitely a family that appreciates her efforts! Looking forward to Legally Blonde 3 ... hint, hint :o)

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: 2 Words - Not Good
Review: I never saw the first Legally Blonde movie, and I actually considered watching it before going to see this one. But if the original has as much stupidity as this one, I'm glad I skipped it.

I tried to take it for what it was, a campy little comedy film depicting an airhead blond (Witherspoon) as an actual genius with unbelievable charm. But I'm sorry, the few comedic moments were too far apart to keep me entertained.

I gave this film 2 stars. One is for the casting (Newhart was great). The other is simply because her husband to be (Luke Wilson) is a diehard Red Sox fan, how can I not love that.

Summary: REMEMBER: IT'S A COMEDY!
Review: I loved this movie. I laughed more than I have in a long time. I have one suggestion for those of you who are weary about seeing it - KEEP IN MIND THAT IT IS A COMEDY. Too many people think that this is dumb movie because they forget that it is a comedy - even when Elle is crying. Reese does not cry like that in her more serious rolls. Granted you are not laughing out loud - a grin may come across your face, but you also are not supposed to take it completely seriously either. Just enjoy the comedy and great performances by the entire cast.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Ms. Woods Goes to Washington
Review: "Legally Blonde" caught most people off guard with its unrelenting good nature and the irrepressible sunny-ness of its star, Reese Witherspoon. "Legally Blonde 2" is probably not as dynamic as the first installment but it definitely has its charms: in particular, Bob Newhart's politically savvy doorman, Sidney and Sally Fields good/bad/good Congressperson, Rep. Rudd.
Patterned after the "me against the world" plot of Jimmy Stewart's "Mr. Deeds Goes to Washington," Elle plays the innocent in D.C. out to have a bill (called the Bruiser Bill!) passed that will make it a crime to use animals to test cosmetics.
There are numerous references to Hair Care, Make-up, Facials, Manicures, etc at seemingly inappropriate times (like in a joint session of Congress) but hey...what else do you expect from Our Elle?
Anyway, "Legally Blonde 2" is generally a hoot and with the slew of coming attractions I saw before the feature today, it looks like it's destined to be the Rolls Royce of comedies slated for this summers release.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Can't compare it to the first one
Review: I was very disappointed by the movie - it doesn't even come close to the wit and fun of the first Legally Blonde. Granted, I did have a screaming boy who loved to kick seats behind me for most of the movie, so I may have missed a couple of good lines, but still the characters seemed more annoying than charming and fun. And "Snaps for Congresswoman Hauser..." Please. Just a little too much on the fake site. My recommendation is wait for the video.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: 5 Big Snaps for Elle Woods
Review: This was a delightful way to spend a lazy summer afternoon.

Elle Woods, America's favorite blonde, goes to Washington after she is fired from her law office for taking a stand against animas being used for testing cosmetics. Already I loved this movie - a lawyer with prinicples - how rare is that?

Elle joins the staff of a Congresswoman (wonderfully played by Sally Field) to try and get a bill passed that would ban such testing. But of course, Elle meets up with cyncial, self-indulgent and selfish associates. She meets one roadblock after another. But using the Elle Woods way, she doggedly (excuse the pun) persists until she is successful.

Elle refuses to accept things as they are. She refuses to take the easy way out. She won't compromise her principles. There is more to this blonde than meets the eye. Far from being the "Capitol Barbie" as she is called, she proves to be "street smart" (even if the street is Rodeo Drive) and uses the skills that she does posses to acomplish her goal. It is a joy to watch her operate.

Elle's major statement is about making a difference. One person can overcome odds to make a difference. (see Rosa Parks, Jackie Robinson, Martin Luther King). When some people are told that "it's pointless, just give up", they use that as motivation to work harder. Those are the kind of people we should be looking to as being leaders. I think I would rather have Elle Woods in charge of things than what we have in Washington today. I'd rather have someone with principles and values.

Elle, if you ever decide to run for President, you've got my vote.

Summary: legally blonde 2
Review: Its okay for renting,but its not something i am going to rush off and buy. reese witherspoon is so much better in sweet home alabama ( great movie)in this movie she just seems/ acts so fake, its not a realistic personality that she plays. they couldve done a better job, and basicly it was just a set up for part 3. The next one they make , they should make her become a stripper or something, that would make it better...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Legally Smashing!
Review: Like OMG... this was like the greatest Legally Blond sequel ever! Like who would have come up with the idea of a plot involving animal testing. This subject is like so innovative. It makes me wonder like why this hasnt come up in the public's view yet. If there was like a club against animal testing or making clothes out of animals, I would so join it.
And it was totally awesome to see the lil taco bell dog again. Can he be any cuter? Although I was really disappointed when he didnt say "yo quiero taco bell." It was also great to see MacGyver's buddy, Jack, again (you kno, the pilot guy). I totally miss his mustache.
