The Worst Film Ever

A Major Disappointment

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Legally Blonde 2: red white and blonde is kind of cute, it's not cinematic gold, but it should please fans of the first. I wasn't the biggest fan in the world of the first legally blonde, but I didn't hate it. Legendary academy award winning actress Sally Field joins Reese Witherspoon in this even pinker sequel, which was great to see, she was great in her role, she fit it really well. Reese is the same here as she was in the 2001 movie, which works just as well as before. Some of the first 20 to 30 minutes is kinda weak in my opinion, which is why the movie didn't receive a higher rating than 6. The rest of the returning cast is just as good here as well. The issue of animal rights is addressed here, and it's an important issue to raise, so even through comedy like this we can still get some good discussion about a big topic like this. The script is better at times than it is at others, it varies. So this sequel will likely please fans of the original, but probably won't bring any new fans to the table. It gets a 6/10 on my scale.

If not as worthless as some claim, this sequel to the charming 'Legally Blonde' is quite a few steps below the original. The plot has Elle going to Washington to propose a bill banning animal testing after her law firm refuses to handle a local case. Tackling an important issue with quite a few stabs at the lack of altruism in money-grubbing politics, the film certainly has its heart in the right place. Reese Witherspoon is also still solid with her never-ending energy and inability to be phased. The script does not give her anywhere near as many self-realisation moments at the first film though and Elle seems even ditzier here -- which goes against her growth by the end of Part One. The dynamic of the first film was that Witherspoon was always intelligent but had just dedicated her life to things associated with airheads; this time though, she just seems silly talking to her dog like a teenager and researching its birth mother. The revelation that her dog is gay also only distracts from the animal abuse theme. The supporting cast are not even especially good this time round. Luke Wilson's role is so underwritten that it is baffling why he was actually rehired and Jennifer Coolidge (who had much of the heart and soul of the first film) only fares slightly better. For all its flaws though, the film is still oddly watchable. The costumes are still imaginative, there are scattered, if inconsistent, funny moments and Witherspoon sells her character once again - but certainly one would expect more with 'Kissing Jessica Stein' director Charles Herman- Wurmfeld at the helm.

Well… what can I say? Agreeing with majority movie viewers, Legally Blonde definitely does not lack corny and flawed script writing. Its poor execution of its rather illogical plot and character development certainly does not make it a form of art in the greater scheme of the cinematography world.However, aside from all negativity, have you considered that perhaps we have been too harsh in robbing this movie of value? Perhaps the intention of this movie is made for the purpose to remind us of some life values that we have over looked when living in our preoccupied and stressful daily life.Regardless of Elle's woods dizziness and irrational decision making skills, she is a truly admirable character, a rarity that is lacking in our humanity. Heck, I'm going to say that yes, she's my heroine. Why wouldn't anyone want to learn from her or be like her? She's a person who can rise above all other's expectations, a gal who shows charisma and courage in all her endeavours, who truly believes in her self when no else does, an individual who is not afraid to be her true self, and most importantly, she is an altruistic and sentient being who truly cares about the wellbeing of all life form in this planet. How many Elle woods can we find in our society now a day?If we can open our minds and look past the irrational elements in this movie, we will began to see that this movie sheds light upon the concepts that we, sometimes, forget to embrace within ourselves, that is - "self confidence", "generosity", "courage", "charisma", "persistence", "compassion" and "individuality". This movie has awaken a chunk of my previous, dormant liveliness'.So, STOP comparing this movie to other cinema masterpieces and start to look at this movie as a story that stands on its own, or else we will certainly overlook some delightful messages this movie tries to transcend.

Two hours of my life and eight dollars I will never get back.The first movie was adorable and actually had a meaningful plot line to it. Reese Witherspoon was cute and reminded every girl about their little blonde moments, I know I've had them.This movie took that all away. Now Reese was just plain annoying. No longer funny, silly and charming. The plot was a disaster, often moving on to other meaningless subplots. The new characters were all useless and I was unable to connect to them.However, the worst part of the movie was the introduction that Bruiser, Elle's dog, was gay. Not only did this take away from the plot, it was down right ridiculous.Readers be warned, stay far away from this movie.
