Hey, people! Today I’ll be reviewing Legally Blonde! This is one of my [many] all-time favorite movies, starring Reese Witherspoon as Elle Woods. The movie is about a stereotypical dumb blonde [Elle], who’s boyfriend dumps her because he’s going to Harvard and he wants more to date more ‘’serious’’ girls, so Elle decides to go to Harvard and win him back. Then at Harvard, when everyone starts discriminating her, Elle decides to prove she’s just as good as them.
Let me just start by saying I absolutely love Elle’s character! She’s very feminine, peppy, seems very dumb, insanely girly and fashionable and she’s so smart and such a great friend. She’s probably one of the most unique and entertaining female characters ever.
I’m not usually a fan of romantic comedies [too much fluff, not enough action] but this one was awesome! Not only do I love Elle but the plot was good, I laughed a lot and this movie has some of the best GIFs ever.
See? Legally Blonde GIFs are legit the best.
I also loved the feminism. While Elle is very feminine, she’s smart and fights back against sexism. This movie was feminist, without overdoing it.
I also really liked the acting. As an actor myself, good actors in a movie is very important. Reese Witherspoon was an amazing lead and she is one of my favorite actors. I know Selma Blair was in it and both Linda Cardenelli and Jennifer Coolidge had small parts. I have no idea who the rest of the cast was but they were all very good.
All-in-all Legally Blonde is a very fun movie to watch and I would rate it 5.0 out of 5.0 stars. Now, I’m rating this based on the type of movie it was, so if you like romantic comedies, you’ll probably like this. However, I’m not normally a rom-com fan and I found it enjoyable. It’s rated PG-13, so if you’re under 13 you’d probably want to get a parent’s permission before seeing it. Legally Blonde is on Netflix, I believe, and that’s where my family watched it.
But wait! I can’t end this review without showing you one of Elle’s most inspiring quotes [just like all the rest of the ones I put in here ‘cause I’m so good at choosing favorites]!
Okay, that’s all for now. Have you seen Legally Blonde? Do you want to?

    I've never seen the movie. I probably should. Some of those gifs looked incredibly funny.

    I've never seen legally Blonde, but it looks interesting, and Reese Witherspoon is in it (she's one of my favorite actors along with....many others.) And also I love Feminist movies that are showing that women can do as amazing things as men, (such as Captain Marvel, Wonder Woman, etc.)
    so it would be neat to add another one to my list of movies about strong women. :)

    Yes, I think you both would like it. Reese Witherspoon is a great actress and the movie is very funny. I love Wonder Woman! I haven't seen Captain Marvel yet, is it good?

      Captain Marvel was amazing (at least in my opinion), Brie Larson did such a good job acting as Carol. :) And the plot was awesome, so I would definitely recommend watching it.

    I am a minority here on "Wonder Woman" but I saw it in theaters, and I didn't like it. I just found it really slow and boring. Of course, everyone has different tastes, but I didn't see the appeal. I know many do, but I was just praying to God for the movie to be over.

    Thanks for telling me, Q. I'll see if I can watch it, hopefully sooner rather than later. I've seen some of the trailers before and Brie Larson seems like a good actress. I'll add it to my TBW (to be watched) list.

    Yes, of course everyone has different tastes. There have been some VERY popular movies that I just didn't care for.

In Which I Talk About My WIP

Image
 Greetings, friends! So, during my semi-hiatus, I did get to do a little more writing than usual, so I thought now would be a good time to talk about my WIP. So, here we are. I stole   borrowed this tag from Christine's blog. Technically, you're supposed to do it doing NaNo, but I'm doing it now.  What first sparked the idea for this novel? I'm not....totally sure. I know the idea first came to me in November 2020. It came from me wanting to write a book with magical powers, and I've always liked elemental magic, so that's sort of how it got started. Originally, I'd imagined it as a TV show, actually, and it was just a fun idea to play around with in my head, but then I ended up tweaking it a little, and it's now it's a whole novel. Share a blurb [or just an overall summary if you'd prefer]? I think I'll probably just give a summery, honestly, because that's easier. It's summertime. For most high schoolers. that means swimming, a nice...

If I Was A Fictional Character [Tag]

Image
 Hello there! Random Buffy GIF just because.   Sam  did this tag on her blog, and I asked her if I could do it, and she said yes.  This looks like it will be a lot of fun. *rubs hands together gleefully* Share a snippet that includes a description of their appearance: She's flopped out on her bed, furiously typing up a blog post on her laptop. She's tall, and athletic looking with very long legs. She's dressed casually in ripped jeans [she didn't buy them ripped. They just happened to rip while she was wearing them, and they're her most comfortable pair, so she keeps wearing them], a mint green hoodie, and socks with llamas on them. Her hair is medium-length, wavy and light brown with blonde streaks/highlights. Basically my hair is like hers, only longer. Her favorite feature is her eyes. They're dark brown, and usually hidden behind glasses.  She has a small and wide nose, thin eyebrows, and a huge grin.  She's not sure if she's pretty or not, but she l...
