Before Legally Blonde, Reese Witherspoon wasn’t yet the A-list star that she is today. Instead, she was a young starlet known for stealing the spotlight from more seasoned actors and demonstrating eye-opening acting abilities in independent movies like Freeway (1996), Pleasantville (1998) and most notably Election (1999).

Movie Review: Just Like Heaven (2005)
The kind of fluffy romantic comedy that Reese Witherspoon can usually open in her sleep, Just Like Heaven is a pleasantly above average movie directed by Mark Waters (Mean Girls).

What makes this movie a little different is that it’s not only a timeline and description of what happened in Johnny’s life. Those are actually a sidenote in this movie, the real story is the love interest between Cash (Joaquin Phoenix) and June Carter (Reese Witherspoon).
Movie Review: Rendition (2007)
I just saw Rendition in theater Friday night. Good but unspectacular movie. As a whole it is neither exceptional nor bad. Just a little blah… In short, Rendition = BABEL. Same structure, same shortcomings, same result. It doesn’t help that it’s the 47th movie in the past 2 years whose subject relates to the Iraq War.
