I actually enjoyed the first of this duo. It was fun, campy, silly, well-meaning, and largely inoffensive. Reese Witherspoon is a fun ditz, Elle Woods, who goes off to Harvard Law School to win back her disgusting frat-boy boyfriend who sees himself on the fast track. The plot is irrelevant, Witherspoon’s performance is all, and it is very winning. A fun dumb film to watch with my daughter. LB 2, however, has no redeeming social importance at all and should be avoided at all costs. Witherspoon is dreadful. This is a self-serving vehicle that she produced!. It’s inexcusable for such a talented person to produce such a wretched sequel. Very Streisand-esque. Was it ego?. Depression following her divorce?. An amazingly swelled head after the Oscars?. Who knows. Just avoid this one!. The politics are bad too. Really a turkey
