Join us as we review the animated film Sing and its brand new sequel Sing 2! What do you get when you combine animals, charming humor, cartoon Las Vegas, and turn it into a musical? We say a hit that made one of us cry (…twice)! Also have to respect a kids movie where you actually don’t mind listening to the soundtrack for the millionth time. Reese Witherspoon voices Rosita alongside big stars like ScarJo, Matthew McConaughey, and Tori Kelly, just to name a few. Tune in to hear how these films ...

This week we are exploring the 1999 cult classic - Election. This dark comedy sealed the deal for Reese’s eventual casting in Legally Blonde, so you know she pulls out all the stops in her role as Tracy Flick. We love that while this movie is over the top, it also provides some empathetic, introspective moments (and some great freeze frames)!

This week we throw it back to the 90's and its hairstyles with Cruel Intentions. Join us as we discuss appropriate boundaries for step-siblings and whether or not you should break up with that guy your friends hate (you should). This film features an electric chemistry between Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Philippe, but it doesn't stop there - Sarah Michelle Gellar, Selma Blair, and Christine Baranski round out this stellar cast! Tune in to see how we rate this movie & how it stacks up against EVE...

This episode we're bringing it back to Reese Witherspoon's FIRST movie - The Man in the Moon. Not only was it her first film, but she was also the lead! She plays a young teenager, Dani, who falls for the new neighbor next door. This is a true coming-of-age film, and it's so fun to see young Reese nail this role! Listen to find out all of our thoughts and how this movie ranks vs every other Reese Witherspoon movie! Episode sponsored by: Bright Endeavors: https://brightendeavors.org/ Instagram:...

Join us as we review the 2014 film Wild, based off of a book by and experience of Cheryl Strayed. Reese Witherspoon stars in this unique drama that relies heavily on her performance given the amount of time spent alone. In addition to discussing her acting, we also go through fun facts about the filming of the movie!

Things get weird in this episode of Girl Crush Podcast as we review the 2000 comedy (attempt) Little Nicky starring Adam Sandler. This is the FIRST movie we watched for this season, so we were disappointed to have to sit through this whole movie for just a few minutes of Reese Witherspoon… But this is how dedicated we are in watching and ranking EVERY Reese Witherspoon movie! And what we’ve found is sometimes the worst movies make for the best podcast episodes…Tune in to hear why this movie mis...

This week we are reviewing the 2010 rom com How Do You Know featuring an amazing cast with Paul Rudd, Owen Wilson, Kathryn Hahn, and Jack Nicholson alongside our girl Reese Witherspoon. Though we can just never be convinced of Owen Wilson's love-interest potential when he's so good at being.... Owen Wilson... we really enjoyed this movie with Reese and Paul's comfortable on-screen chemistry! Listen to hear how this movie ranks alongside all 41 Reese Witherspoon movies!

When we say we had very LOW expectations for this 1991 TV movie starring Patricia Arquette alongside Reese Witherspoon, they were very... very... low given our experience with other early tv movies in our girl crush's filmography (please reference: Sandra Bullock's Early Crime Movies episode from season 2!) . Reese's 90's movies delivered once again, though, as we were both very engaged with this heart-warming period piece directed by Diane Keaton. Listen to hear how this movie ranks out of Rees...

This week we bring it back to the 1800s with two period pieces! First, we review the 2004 film Vanity Fair starring James Purefoy alongside Reese Witherspoon in this period film based off of a novel. This oh-so-boring plot was made better by the strength of Reese's acting! Listen to find out how we balance an underwhelming plot with good acting in our rankings. Next up is another 1800s written work turned film - the 2002 film The Importance of Being Earnest. Colin Firth and Judi Dench round ou...

Join us for our 100th episode of Girl Crush Podcast!! This week we review the 2015 comedy Hot Pursuit starring Reese Witherspoon alongside Sofia Vergara. These leading ladies have a fun chemistry, but even they cannot quite save this film. We've seen the slapstick cop comedy before, and this one just isn't up to par. In this episode we discuss the silly plot, Reese's acting, and compare this to other movies in a similar genre. This film got a 35% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes...tune in to f...

This week we are reviewing the 1996 thriller, Fear. This was an unknown movie for us prior to starting this season and we were very pleasantly surprised! If we love Reese Witherspoon's 90's acting and also love Mark Wahlberg's 90's acting (see also our review of Rockstar in season 1 of Girl Crush!).... do we just love 90's movies? Tune in to see where this movie ranks out of all 41 Reese Witherspoon movies! Episode Sponsored by Yellow & Company: Website: http://www.shopyellowandcompany.com/ Ins...

This week we are reviewing yet another period piece of Reese Witherspoon's! Set in the 1930's we are immersed into a traveling circus full of amazing sets, costumes, and hair design. Somehow Reese pulls off chemistry with both Christoph Waltz and Robert Pattinson, which we truly did not think possible. Listen in to hear all of our thoughts and find out how Water for Elephants ranks across all 41 Reese movies! Episode Sponsored by Yellow & Company: Website: http://www.shopyellowandcompany.com/ I...

From the Disney Vault (it's not even on Disney+)!! Join us for our review of the little known 1993 Disney film A Far Off Place starring young Reese Witherspoon in her 4th movie. Surprisingly, this adventure drama is not Reese's only movie featuring elephants, nor is it her only movie set in Africa! Follow along as we discuss young Nonnie's journey across the desert to try to find safety and assess the plot, Reese's character, her acting, and more!

Join us for what we have deemed Reese Witherspoon's WORST movie. Tune in to find out why we hated this 1994 dark dramedy (?). As a preview - this movie includes an unlikable protagonist and a boring plot that makes us ask SFW? As much as we hated the movie, this episode is a can't miss!

Join us as we review the remaining animated movies Reese Witherspoon has been in! We already reviewed Sing and Sing 2 (which we loved!) so this week we're reviewing The Trumpet of the Swan and Monsters vs. Aliens. These movies are completely different, but both feature a really well-known cast alongside our girl Reese! The Trumpet of the Swan: Jason Alexander, Kath Soucie, Carol Burnett, Mary Steenburgen (girl crush swoon) Monsters vs. Aliens: Paul Rudd, Seth Rogen, Rainn Wilson, Stephen Colbe...

Scheming, crime, a giant leopard fur coat, Reese Witherspoon, and Josh Brolin come together for an entertaining, albeit underwhelming film in the 1999 drama Best Laid Plans. What the protagonist lacked in likability, Reese made up for with her acting - another instance where she truly shines in the 90's! Listen to this episode to find out why this fell a little short & how it shakes out in the rankings of EVERY Reese Witherspoon movie! Episode Sponsored by Yellow & Company: Website: http://www...

Join us as we review the 2012 coming-of-age drama Mud starring Tye Sheridan, Matthew McConaughey, and Reese Witherspoon.

What do you get when you combine an ancient curse, shallow rich people, and Catherine O'Hara? The 2006 movie Penelope...which one of us hated! Most fairy tales have some oddly cruel life lessons for children, but this one seemed especially questionable. Tune in to find out what we thought of this charming, yet confused, plot and how this stacks up in the ranking of EVERY Reese Witherspoon movie!

Available to watch for free on YouTube, we did not have high hopes for this tv movie with the longest title ever! Desperate Choices: To Save My Child is a 1992 drama based off a true story starring Joanna Kerns, Bruce Davison, and Joseph Mazzello alongside a young Reese Witherspoon. We were pleasantly surprised by this film, which was nominated for two Young Artist Awards, but we DO enjoy Lifetime movies as a general genre so if you disagree with our ratings on this one - we get it.
