This movie is a cute, light-hearted comedy. But the original Legally Blonde was a bit better. It was believable, and less corny than this sequel. It was interesting to see Sally Field as not such a goody-good, (in fact, quite the villainies), and Bob Newhart as the doorman. Jennifer Coolige--even though she is playing her typical role--is always a treat.
However, the plot got far-fetched and cheesy... When you thought that Elle Woods (Witherspoon) would have actually learned something from her days in Harvard Law, and grown and become not such a dumb, overly-fashion-conscious, flighty blonde...she reverts to type. I was surprised that she reverted to her sorority sisters for help when it was much needed instead of her law school colleagues (like Selma Blair's Character, et all.) And the result is like Revenge of the Nerds meets Bring it On.
She's learning the same lessons she had the first time all over again, only this time for the sake of her lovable little chihuahua Bruiser as she takes an Animal Rights bill to congress. While Elle once again relies on her cosmetic savvy ways to prove her case, it's done with a lot more heart. And she meets some other animal lovers along the way to help her reach her goals.
It's cute, light hearted, and funny. With a tad of cheese, and a little bit of silliness.
I gave this 4 out of 10 stars.
