I never saw Legally Blond when it first came out because it just looked so bad. After they made it into a Broadway musical many years later I thought, Ok, you need to check this out. I have to admit that I'm really happy I did because despite quite a few flat and unbelievably unsuccessful moments throughout, I found it thoroughly fun. Reese Witherspoon does an excellent job creating this very likable, ditzy, yet bright and perpetually kind character who seems to always see the good in others. Her generosity of spirit and the fact that the film doesn't take itself too seriously just makes the whole thing work. It will not be for everyone but I think it is worth checking out.
