I not really sure why this did not seem to get as good as reviews as the first. It did start off kind of slow and relied on some crude humor but by the end was in full swing Elle mode, with bubbly sunshine, enthusiastic wit and a moral of perseverance that just wouldn't give up.
I don't know maybe people saw the dizzy blonde that the not yet won over cynics in the movie projected upon her and not the inspirational eccentric Elle that not only had brains but a HUGE heart to boot.
I truly think Legally Blonde 2 was one of the most positive entertaining movies out there. I'm not one for movie sequels but I would definitely entertain the possibility of seeing a Legally Blonde 3, maybe something to do in the vein of the spiritual.
Oh by the way, if you see the movie on DVD, Legally Blonde 2 honestly has one of the best gag reals I have ever seen. It was cut and edited with just the right music. It really brought and smile to my face. I feel good. If a movie can do that, it's done more than its job. Good job, to all who had a hand in its production. This world can use all the light it can get.

I find this one much better the first one. Here she has proven that she is no dumb blonde and takes on a cause-animal rights. Also it pokes fun at social issues. Like when Elle Woods find out that her dog Bruiser, is actually gay, and is in love with Representative Stan Marks's dog-Leslie. Representative Stan Marks find out that he own a male dog and not a female dog. That probably sent a lot of dog owners into therapy, wondering is their dog is gay, lesbian, or straight. Overall I enjoyed the movie. I just don't know if I would recommend the movie or not.

I love the sequel to Legally Blonde. Reese Witherspoon gives an outstanding performance again of Elle Woods, the Delta-Nu sorority queen turned Harvard Law graduate. The movie features an all-star cast including Sally Field, Regina King, Luke Wilson, and an outstandingly quirky performance by Bob Newhart. It also features less known names but still familiar faces like Jessica Cauffiel and Alanna Ubach. This movie brings about the serious issue of laboratory animal testing but yet the movie is light, breezy and fun. Sally Field brings her wonderful acting ability to the movie and you will not be disappointed in it. The movie is not just for animal lovers (as Bruiser the chihuahua along with other dogs are featured throughout)but to people who love happy endings, comedy, love stories, women accomplishment, and for standing up for what you believe in against opposition. Add in very smart coloring and lighting, location, and a great music accompaniment and the movie is a worth 5 stars.
If you liked the first one, you will probably like the second one. It follows much the same pattern. There are dizzy blonde under tones and the underdog trying to do so much in an unjust world. It was cute and fun, nothing that had me rolling on the floor, but still cute. I would suggest watching it, but not buying this one.
