Legally Blonde (2001)
Don't read a book by it's cover
I was thoroughly insulted by the opening of this movie. It epitomized everything that people THINK blondes are, and being a blonde I was not amused in the least. When you deal with ridicule for being ditzy and obsessed with appearance, it pains you to see blondes voluntarily behaving that way. However, as the movie progressed, I really did enjoy it. The main character came out of her shell as a dumb blonde with daddy's credit card. She was intelligent, in some way, shape, or form. In the end, I thought it was a good movie with an interesting plot. I wasn't expecting some of the twists, so it did keep me interested. I highly recommend this movie, and I promise if the beginning looks bad, it really does get better.
Eye of the Beholder (1999)
Ummm...okay...?
I thought this movie was going to be interesting. Boy, could I have been ANY more wrong? Ashley Judd still gave a decent performance, even though the movie made absolutely no sense. All the characters seem to be wearing sort of old fashioned type clothes, yet the technology incorporated into the film is far too advanced for that. Also, if he is a British spy type guy, why is he following her all over the United States? The story line was horrible...all that happened was a few guys were murdered, Ewan MacGregor became obsessed with Ashley Judd, and he keeps seeing visions of his daughter who you assume was taken from him by his former wife, but she seems to appear as a ghost. (Who you even see blurs of in developed pictures...again, something that has nothing to do with what SHOULD be the initial plot.) The only effect this movie had on me was after it ended, I shrugged my shoulders and said "HUH?!" Don't waste your time on this one.
The First Wives Club (1996)
What are you people talking about?
In my opinion, this movie is flat out hilarious! It shows the strong-willed women who aren't afriad to stand up for themselves when they are mistreated. Younger girls could use them as an example not to be pushed around by guys that do them wrong. Not only do it have a good underlying message, but it cracks me up!
Anna and the King (1999)
Wonderful!
I thought Anna and the King was an excellent depiction of the story. I love the musical as well, but this was more dramatic and the location was gorgeous. I highly recommend the movie...but I was a tad disappointed with the ending...if you see it, you'll probably agree!
A Chorus Line (1985)
Oh the dancing...
I love this movie. I mean the story may not be the best, but the dancing most certainly makes up for it. You get to know a little bit about each character the way THEY want you to learn about them. I just think that you won't like this movie unless you're into Broadway...
