The winning comic finesse of Reese Witherspoon drives Legally Blonde 2: Red White and Blonde. It's astonishing that the sequel could possibly be daffier than the first movie, but Legally Blonde 2 leaves reality behind like an unflattering outfit. Unemployed lawyer Elle Woods (Witherspoon) sets off to our nation's capitol to ban cosmetics testing on animals, after discovering that her beloved chihuahua's own mother is being used as a test subject. Washington, D.C., becomes a testing ground for Elle's mettle, as she grapples with callous committees, backstabbing representatives, and devious aides to get her bill considered by Congress, with some help from her sorority sisters and her hairdresser friend Paulette (Jennifer Coolidge, Best in Show, A Mighty Wind). Witherspoon bursts with charisma and dazzles with sheer performing skill; she's the comic heir to screwball comedienne Carole Lombard--which is high praise. Also featuring Bob Newhart and Sally Field. --Bret Fetzer

 A Hit Again! August 7, 2008
B. Garriga (Brooklyn, NY USA)
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.
 Just like the first April 7, 2008
Craig Frooninckx (Phoenix, AZ)
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.
 PROOF THAT SEQUELS DON'T ALWAYS NEED MADE March 15, 2008
Mark Turner
LEGALLY BLONDE 2: RED, WHITE AND BLONDE may be the worst movie I have ever paid money to see. And I have seen a LOT of movies. This movie would even be bad if you had the chance to see it for free.
Where to begin? How about the fact that I enjoyed the first movie. I found it to be silly, but not to the point of talking down to its audience. It was cute in some ways even.
This movie has little of that. Instead, it takes our heroine Elle Woods (Reese Witherspoon) and shows that she has made something of herself as an up and coming lawyer. Don't ask how, just accept it. But that all changes when during the planning of her upcoming wedding she discovers that the mother of her prized pooch Buster is being used for experiments at a cosmetics lab.
In order to put a stop to this, she ends up being fired from the law firm and then heading straight to where laws are made: Washington. Woods arrives in pink pillbox hat and begins working for Congresswoman Sally Field, using her naive charm to try and wend her way through the halls of government.
While others work the political machine the way they have for years, Woods simply finds ways to circumvent the system. Everything from chumming up to a fellow sorority sister who is now a congresswoman to bumping into another congressman with a dog that her own Buster is attracted to...even if they are both male.
Although no particular party is smeared or mentioned so much by name, the obvious shots at Republicans as mean spirited, gun wielding, animal haters is played very smoothly under the surface. If you want this sort of humor, turn on Saturday Night Live.
Everything comes far too easily for Elle Woods. I know that suspension of belief is needed for movies for them to be enjoyed. I will believe that a man can fly. I will believe that a lightsaber can actually exist. But I have a hard time believing that someone can go to Washington and accidentally bump into everyone they need to see to get a bill passed. And that those same people they meet will suddenly fall all over themselves to do so.
Perhaps the biggest failure for me while watching this film is remembering how well it's been done before. One only need look at the movie shown here in a clip, MR. SMITH GOES TO WASHINGTON to realize what this movie could have been. Instead it offers lame jokes, tries to make us laugh at stupidity and wastes the talents of Bob Newhart.
There is a scene near the end of this movie that truly sank it to the depths. Elle Woods appears before Congress and gives a speech. She begins with a rehearsed one and then changes her mind, talking from the heart in her usual off center way. By the end of her speech, the members of Congress are falling all over themselves, some in tears, affected by this silly speech. It reminded me of another film that fell apart using this same approach. A STAR IS BORN with Streisand. A crowd shows for a heavy duty rock concert, the star is too drunk to perform and out walks a melodic, Broadway sounding replacement. She sings and the crowd goes nuts, loving her and adoring her from the start. Is this for real? I've been to concerts. If I went to see Kiss and Vicki Carr replaced them, I would demand my money back.
This movie is an insult to anyone who goes to see it. It offers few laughs that are few and far between. It wastes the talents of all involved in the making of it (especially Witherspoon who used the first film to gain status and doesn't need this one to cement it). If a movie were needed to ignite a bonfire celebrating the films that history has given us, please let it be this one that becomes kindling.
 The Story Line could have been better!! March 14, 2008
MARCOLA (SOMEWHERE IN TIME...)
As most movies you like Part 1 & think you'll like part 2, part 2 didn't follow the vibe of part 1!!
I rate this movie a 7 from 1to10!!
Reese Rocks! March 11, 2008
Theresa K. Hunt-myers (Chicago)
She's still the one! The second was just as good as the first, and I actually purchased both @ the same time. these movies make me laugh and everyone needs more of that. I wa satisfied with both the price and the prompt delivery.
