An entertaining movie that with the title alone alerts you that it is brazenly silly, though Reese Witherspoon's character Elle Woods has challenges that make you cheer for her. Awkward social situations are well handled by the character and credit to the writers and director for resolving these with good morals. All of the major cast roles are well done.
Boldly going where no blonde has gone.
Fashionable sorority queen Elle Woods has it all, but, she wants nothing more than to be Mrs. Warner Huntington III. But he dumps her before heading to Harvard Law School. Elle rallies all of her resources and gets into Harvard, determined to win him back. While there, she figures out that there is more to herself than just good looks.

She's having none of that, follows him to Harvard determined to win him back from his new sweetheart "Vivian" (Selma Blair) and the battle is on. She goes…
<em>'Legally Blonde'</em> is good. There is plenty of cheese and you can see where the story is heading from basically the get-go, though it is all brought to life by an impressive Reese Witherspoon performance. There are amusing moments, plus it has a pleasantly short run time. Overall, I did find it enjoyable.
