DVD Reviews of Legally Blonde

DVD Review: An original script for once!!
Summary: 5 Stars

You might think this is one of those no substance films for young tweens. But I watched this with my entire family girls and guys alike, and they all got a kick out of it. The witty dialogue, the satisfying conclusion, and Elle's dogged personality come together to make this a really enjoyable and rewatchable film at any age!

DVD Review: Rhetoric class
Summary: 3 Stars

A student used a clip for this movie in her presentation on classical rhetoric for or rhetoric/composition class. It was the scene where the blonde is crossexamining the wintess and uses the witness's own words to prove she had lied. I plan on showing that clip in the future! The movie is cute, but not one I'd watch a doxen times.

DVD Review: Just an FYI, "bend-and-snap" doesn't work unless you are a blonde!
Summary: 4 Stars

As funny as this movie has remained, over the years, it still can't capture the greatness of Reese Witherspoon's performance until you watch her in other movies. Watch her in "Just like Heaven" or "Rendition", Witherspoon still has so much to give.

P.S. don't try the "bend-and-snap" move if you are over 35 years old; nobody is watching... even if you are a blonde!


DVD Review: Light Fun
Summary: 4 Stars

Not every movie has to be a film masterpiece, if every film was how boring would that be ? Legally Blonde is an unbeilevable tale of Elle Woods, a sorority head who has lost her boyfriend Warner because she isn't of his class. Not willing to give up the fight, she takes the LSATS and gets into Harvard Law where she gets introduced to a harsh, new, academic world were things are not handed to her. Adding insult to injury, Warner has moved on with Vivien a snobbish wealthy girl who tries to humiliate Elle by inviting her to a costume party where she is the only one wearing a costume !

This is where Elle begins to transform when she comes to realize that she's never going to be good enough for Warner and decides to become the best lawyer possible. This transformation is furthered when she staunchly defends the innocence of Brooke Windham-Taylor- a fellow Delta New amid murder charges and a law professor/defense attorney that beileves that she is gulty. The cementing action is when Callahan hits on her in his office and Elle showing self respect and discipline rebuffs him, than ironically ends up taking over the case after Emmit (whose always beileved in Elle.)tells the truth to Mrs. Windham, then everything comes full circle as Elle wins the case because of her background as a Delta New!

Actually presents a pretty good lesson for girls or anyone really beyond the far fetched plot and cutesy humor that anything is possible as long as you put your mind to it.

DVD Review: Only in Hollywood!!
Summary: 3 Stars

A bimbo becoming a top lawyer: that's the premise here and a winsome Reese Witherspoon pulls it off in a charming way, which she would have to do to make this ludicrous story watchable.

It's a bit on the feminist side with most men pictured as shallow but there are women pictured the same, too. In an era PC baloney, at least this film pokes fun at everyone, not just select groups.

Witherspoon and Luke Wilson both play good, nice people and it's nice to see a Wilson brother NOT playing someone stupid. There are stupid parts in here, but you get that in any comedy. There are also some very clever lines in there, too, but overall it's pretty low-brained material.....just played for fun. It would have been more innocent without a needless off-key or profane remark here and there.

Description of Legally Blonde

She's a California sorority girl who'll do anything to keep her man. Even if it means going all theway'to law school! Reese Witherspoon (Election) stars with Luke Wilson (Charlie's Angels), Selma Blair (Cruel Intentions), Matthew Davis (Pearl Harbor) and Victor Garber (Titanic) in a knock-out comedy with a heart of goldand hair to match! Elle Woods (Witherspoon) is a California blonde with couture clothes, fabulous friends and the hottest boyfriend on campus. So when Warner Huntington III (Davis) suddenly dumps her and heads for Harvard Law School, Elletakes matters into her own perfectly manicured hands. She enrolls too! Now getting Warner back should be a snap, right? Wrong! Elle's about to begin the toughest fight of her lifefor love, honor, justice and respect for blondes everywhere!
If you've ever doubted how much a star can carry a movie, look no further than Legally Blonde, Robert Luketic's pop fluff about a sorority girl who becomes the reigning brain at Harvard Law School. The film tries way too hard to be pop fluff, but thankfully it also understands the comic glories of Reese Witherspoon. As Elle Woods, the supposedly dimwitted heroine, Witherspoon gives a high-wattage performance that somehow comes across as both lusciously cartoonish and warmly human. It's a radiant comic turn worthy of Marilyn Monroe, and Luketic throws the whole movie at her, even though its intentional kitsch and sledgehammer contrivances don't trust you enough to figure out on your own what might be guilty fun about it. It's a lame movie, essentially, that redeems itself by knowing just enough to keep things sunny and moving right along. The film is content to follow several steps behind the regal Witherspoon, carrying her train. You probably will be, too. --Steve Wiecking
