Movie Review: Legally Blonde

Stars (Out of 10): 8

One Word Summary: Cute

Full Review:

   Legally Blonde is about a blonde California girl who is devastated after her boyfriend dumps her. Being the president of her sorority and having a bachelor's degree in fashion wasn't impressive enough for his East-Coast family, so she miraculously gets into Harvard Law School to try and win him back... There, Elle is surprised to see that her Ex has gotten back together with an old girlfriend, and they are engaged.

    Cute... but not to be taken seriously! If you try, by the end of the movie you might believe Aunt Martha the hair stylist might be capable of handling your divorce. No! THE WHOLE MOVIE IS A JOKE! Quite a funny joke!

    Funny... but at some points it was a bit to "pink" for me (if you know what I mean). This role was basically perfect for Reese Witherspoon. I can't imagine anyone else in the part or anyone more perfect for it.

    In conclusion, if you want an enjoyable, however irreverent, movie... take a peek at this one. There aren't many movies that a whole family will enjoy, this is one of them. If you can look past some of the, silliness, than be prepared to laugh!

Comedy

1 hr. 34 min. Elle Woods (Reese Witherspoon) has it all. She's the president of her sorority, a Hawaiian Tropic girl, Miss June in her campus calendar, and, above all, a natural blonde. She dates the cutest fraternity boy on campus and wants nothing more than to be Mrs. Warner Huntington III. But, there's just one thing stopping Warner (Matthew Davis) from popping the question: Elle is TOO
blonde. Growing up across the street from Aaron Spelling might mean something in LA, but nothing to Warner's East-Coast blue blood family. So, when Warner packs up for Harvard Law and reunites with an old sweetheart from prep school, Elle rallies all her resources and gets into Harvard, determined to win him back. But law school is a far cry from the comforts of her poolside and the mall. Elle must wage the battle of her life - for her guy, for herself and for all the blondes who suffer endless indignities everyday.
