Legally Blonde Storyline

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 Los Angeles, California, 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.

Legally Blonde Movie Reviews

Not particularly deep or convincing…and that’s something I can live with sometimes.

Elle is the ultimate stereotypical ditsy blonde. She is about to graduate college and has spent the last four years being very happy–and caring less about her future. She’s the president of her sorority, homecoming queen and has a great fashion sense. Her plans after graduation are to marry her college sweetheart…period. However, when the boyfriend announces that he’s going to Harvard law school and gives her the brushoff, at a spur of the moment she decides she’s going to Harvard law as well! While no one would think she had a brain, it turns out Elle is at the top of her class and scores a nearly perfect LSAT–and she, too, is admitted to this prestigious institution. There, however, she’s like a fish out of water–and everyone laughs at the audacious and seemingly out to lunch blonde. Will Elle fail or rise to the top? No big surprises here, but it sure is a nice ride.

LEGALLY BLONDE is a movie that has no pretense. It knows it’s not great art and won’t be winning Oscars, yet it also is clever enough to avoid stereotypes or at least defy them. It also knows darn well that the plot is utterly ridiculous but runs with it. However, this isn’t so bad, as sometimes you just need to turn off your brain and enjoy a film for what it is–entertainment. I know I am a super-critical person (hence, my 7100+ reviews on IMDb so far), but occasionally it’s nice to see a film that isn’t an independent film, art film, foreign film or silent–all types of films I usually watch. Sometimes you just need some brain candy! Excellent acting, a nice light directorial touch and good writing make this a standout film–and a lot better than you’d probably imagine.

Surprising

As several reviewers have said already, I wasn’t expecting too much when I saw Legally Blonde, but it was for me surprisingly good. The plot may be a little predictable and heavy-handed, but everything else was nicely handled.

The film does move quite quickly, the script is nice and fluffy like a soufflé, the soundtrack is authentic, the pacing is efficient as is the direction, and the scenery and costumes are lovely. And I enjoyed the acting, Reese Witherspoon is really beautiful and charming, not to mention funny, in the title role, while the supporting cast especially Victor Garber and Selma Blair is very nice.

Overall, this was a surprising film in a good way too. 8/10 Bethany Cox

a women empowerment movie without even trying

This movie was listed as one of the most iconic teenager/chick flick movies, and after watching Mean Girls (which I hated and I didn’t understand how this movie became an icon), I didn’t expect a lot from Legally Blonde. Probably a movie about some shallow, upper class, white teen girl getting into law school because of “connections” and realizing it’s actually hard, right?

Big wrong.

I did cringe at the intro of the movie, because it seems like Elle’s motivation to get into law school was simply to get closer to her ex and trying to win him back. But after some realizations, she didn’t care about her ex nor some romantic relationship anymore and did her best to keep up with the workload, getting internships, be responsible, proving people that she’s not a “basic white girl” who probably graduates from Harvard with “special treatments”

I love this movie because they didn’t emphasize the importance of having a boyfriend/fiancé/romantic relationship (which is what usually happen to women characters in movies) and instead showed Elle’s hard work whilst being underestimated. Elle still has stress and frustration, and she solved it by visiting the salon and make friends along the way. On top of that, the movie created a pretty realistic university scenes, from work stress, bullying, underestimating, to sexual favors–of which Elle handled them gracefully and responsibly.

While all of this is happening, Elle also managed to still stay stylish! Which also breaks the stereotype of “fashionable, pretty girls are empty-headed”

10/10. A must watch for everyone, especially teenage girls.
