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

 The worst! November 16, 2008
If you loved Reese Witherspoon in "Walk the Line," you'll wonder why she got involved with the movie- it's just bad from one end to the other. Even Bob Newhart stinks, and that's rare.
The plot is stupid, the jokes aren't funny, and the even the DVD case can't be reused because it's pink.
After we bought this stinker, we couldn't even sell it on E-bay.
 A Hit Again! August 7, 2008
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
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.
 Reese Rocks! March 11, 2008
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.

I knew this was a bad movie. I missed it in the theaters but my wife saw it and said it was just horrible.
As one who believes you can't criticize something unless you have seen it or read it; I borrowed the film from somebody.
If I had seen this in the theater; I would have been really mad at wasting money. Especially the prices these days.
The film seemed to pander rather then tell a story. It tried to relive the past and failed miserably. At the end of the first film; you felt that Elle had matured a little. She regressed in this film. The "oh my gawd" dingy blond was played to the hilt. You just didn't get the savvy moments she would have in the other film.
There were many sight gags that were just bad. I didn't even get a chance to laugh. I have a hard time believing that barracuda congresswomen would go for "funky" hair. An arch-conservative NRA President congressman announcing he has a gay dog and is happy about it? Congress having a compliment jar? Gag! I really had to fight the urge to stop the film. Maybe I was hoping it would get better.
There were new characters but there was little or no time developing them. Bob Newhart could have been really interesting but nothing really happened. Sally Field could have been interesting as the friend who is really an enemy and yet they couldn't allow that to happen as she eventually turned around.
The final fight happens with a speech before Congress. It could have been a great "Capraesk" moment ala Mr. Smith goes to Washington. But it failed.
The agony finally ends with Elle getting married and driving off for the honeymoon. Emmet asks here where she wanted to live and she eyeballs the Whitehouse.
Luckily this will never happen.
The DVD has the usual extras. I tried watching the deleted scenes. Usually, there are some you can argue they should have stayed in the film. This is not the case. They were just bad bad bad!
I watched the gag reel and simply yawned.
The rest I did not care to see.
