The pinkest film in history.

Which is exactly what makes Witherspoon's character, Elle Woods, such a challenge. Her über-girly character is an extreme caricature, a farcically fuchsia female with an anything-goes attitude that gets her into Law School at Harvard.

It's a part that reeks of predictability, but there is an overwhelming earnestness Reese brings to the role, making you like Elle despite yourself. Elle might be maddeningly perky, but she's embarrassingly flawed, something you eventually -- on one level or another -- relate to.

Elle is annoying, ditsy, vibrant and ever so slow. But hey, she can pull it off. With flying colour.
