I was not expecting this movie to be that good. I had absolutely no idea what this movie was about before I watched it. It took about 2 minutes for me to realize that its one of those cheesy rom-coms. That being said, this is probably the best cheesy rom-com I've ever watched. It had several more layers than the usual romantic comedy.
Legally Blonde put a girl from an LA community college into a prestigious east-coast school. She stands out in all her classes because of her bright clothes and frilly behavior. All the other students talk in a really monotonous voice and they all wear grey and black. The colors of the movie and her clothes show her character arc. When she was feeling insecure, she would wear grey. The brighter her clothes, the brighter her personality. Her clothes are especially noticeable because most of the sets are grey, tan, brown, and black. I didn't laugh as much in this movie as I did while watching other rom-coms, but I'm glad I didn't. I feel like the film would lose its some of its charm and its wholesome ending wouldn't have hit as hard if the writers made too many jokes on the irony of a California girl being in a smart person school. I would definitely recomend this movie to anyone who wants an easy movie to watch, but doesn't make you feel like your brain is melting. 8/10
