Pros: Some cute girls; Selma Blair Cons: More predictable than a Lakers three-peat.
Fish-out-of-water movies are as inevitable as traffic jams on a Los Angeles freeway, and Legally Blonde is but another in the long line of "Hey! How can we put someone in a completely foreign environment and make it funny as hell?!" movies.

Pros: Witherspoons shines as a comedic actress once again. Cons: Quick growth of the central character is too false.
Just when you think you’ve heard the last of “blonds are so stupid they put whiteout on a computer screen” comes Legally Blond that reminds you “within the context of legality an uneducated participant cannot be held liable for actions where...

Pros: Only 96 minutes of pain and suffering! Cons: Unoriginal plot. Bad acting. Annoying blonde stereotype!
I was in the movie theater a few weeks ago and a preview for a movie called Legally Blonde came on. After seeing the preview I thought to myself "Wow that looks stupid, glad I won't have to see it". And then came those fatal words, "That looks good...

Pros: MAy appeal to teen boys looking for pretty girls Cons: Unoriginal teen movie with poor plot and acting
With six million Teen movies on the market (including a brand spanking new spoof ‘Not another Teen movie’ just released) I find myself dreading the prospect of going to the movies. It seems that the movie industry has phases where a certain type of movie...

Pros: Reese Witherspoon in a bathing suit SEVERAL times, the UPS guy Cons: plot, cliché jokes, horrendous acting, horrible all around movie
If, when you see the trailers for this movie, you automatically assume that it's just another dumb blonde movie like Clueless, you're wrong. Clueless wasn't even this bad - plus since Clueless was really one of the first dumb blonde movies so at least it...

Pros: A surprisingly solid movie. Interesting and heartwarming. Adorable chihuahua! Cons: A bit unbelievable
Legally Blonde is the amusing and surprisingly heart-warming story of a fashion queen, Elle Woods, who decides to attend Harvard Law school in a misguided attempt to win over her ex-boyfriend. While the premise could easily make the audience despise...

Pros: Lots and lots of hilarity, actors and actresses get into characters very well. Cons: None.
First & Foremost
I believe that throughout my time at Epinions, I've written, at the most, two movie reviews. I actually saw this movie at the sneak preview while I was on vacation in California. It actually premiered the Friday before it...

Pros: Reese Witherspoon. Cons: Made up of spare parts from other films.
With its premise of a pampered, ditzy girly-girl somehow making her way into Harvard Law, "Legally Blonde" has been dismissed as "Clueless goes to law school." Actually, the film is more than that.
It's Clueless meets...

Pros: great acting; witty & charming writing; personable characters Cons: some continuity
Several years ago, I found a favorite young actress in this little coming-of-age movie starring Sam Waterson (Law & Order) and Jason London (twin of Party of Five actor Jeremy). Shortly after, I saw the same girl in a less known...

Pros: Witty, beautifully and sharply executed, stars Reese Witherspoon Cons: Many people may mistake this as a 'no-brainer': Hah!!
(Updated in order to fix gross spelling error(s)) I wanted to write a review for this movie the second after I left the movie theater; alas, I never got around to it. But now, months later, after renting it for the first time this evening, I felt the ...

Pros: A couple of laughs. Cons: Terrible stereotypes and messages.
*Please note: It appears as though a 12 year old has hacked into my review. I was unable to delete the portion they added, so I added my portion at the end. Sorry about the confusion.*
So 'Legeally Blonde' stars Reese Witherspoon, this totally...

Pros: Some funny parts, Luke Wilson Cons: Annoying concept, annoying actors, annoying music, basically, just an annoying experience.
I am actually starting to get headaches from these kind of movies. Not because I am forced to sit in the front row of the theater due to all the mindless mainstream drones who stockpile the auditorium. No, because it is just so aggravating that Hollywood...

Pros: Reese Witherspoon's performance, Stiffler's mom from American Pie in an amusing supporting role Cons: Luke Wilson's stiff like performance, underuse of the delectable Selma Blair
From the opening sequence to the obligatory cheesy ending this film pleases.
Before I let you know how truly funny this film is I want to give a hearty high five to Harvard Law School which allowed itself to be made fun of. Nary a single...

Pros: Reese Witherspoon Cons: Cliche
If you saw any of the promotional material for this film, you might have thought to yourself, "Hey, I already saw this movie, but wasn't it called Clueless?" However, the sad truth is this movie comes nowhere close to fulfilling the legacy Clueless...

Pros: Reese Witherspoon Cons: The script, the plot and the supporting actors
What we need this summer is a big fat funny movie; Legally Blond is not that movie.
Having gotten a preview screening pass for “Legally Blond” and being a Reese Witherspoon fan, I was so looking forward to this movie and laughing. It’s been...
