Hansel... he's so hot right now

Zoolander

Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson are hilarious in this male model spoof movie. Hansel... he's so hot right now

If you're one of the people who didn't think this movie would be funny (like me) and have avoided watching it (also like me) do yourself a favor and check this movie out.

It's funny, witty, and the chemistry between Wilson and Stiller is amazing.

Will Ferrel, Jerry Stiller, Billy Zane, and Christine Taylor round out this amazing cast of comedy greats.

Zoolander features some of the best one-liners in a comedy film I've ever heard.

Final Verdict:

5/5

Rent or Buy?: This movie belongs in any movie fans collection. Whether you love comedy, Ben Stiller, or movies in general, Zoolander delivers.

Worst of Ben Stiller

Worst Ben Stiller movie I have ever seen.

I usually like Ben Stiller and I have a good time watching most of his movies but on this case he just didn't make me laugh and honestly I don't really understand why people rate this movie so high. If you like stupidity you may like the movie, if you laugh everytime Jim Carrey (I know he is not in this movie) makes a stupid face you may like this movie.
As some one else said this movie is "stupid, and not even an entertaining form of stupid", I wasted my time and money.
I know it is a comedy but in my opinion it is not funny. There is fine comedy and cheap comedy and to me this is just cheap comedy(sorry Ben if you put years of thought into this movie it just doesn't look like you did).
If you like Ben Stiller rent/buy some other movie.Read full review...

Brilliant After Watching a Few Times - Obey My Dog!

This is the kind of movie you get or you do not. It is silly and funny but smartly written - not an easy thing to do!

Ben Stiller plays Zoolander, a dim-witted male model from a coal mining family. His life had been so hard - the poor guy cannot turn left! Now he is the toast of town until new model Hansen (he's so hot right now!) steals his thunder and wins the VH1 Fashion Award for best male model. After some hard times Zoolander seems on the verge of a comeback when big-time designer Mugatu chooses him for the new Derelict campaign. But Mugatu has a secret agenda - to brainwash Zoolander and have him kill the PM of Malaysia who opposes child labor.

The cast is great, there are many cameos by models, actors and rock stars - gotta love Bowie as the walk-off judge! This is one of those movies that grow on you, the more you watch it the more you like it! Highly recommended.Read full review...

Great Spoof of the Modelling Industry

The first time I watched ZOOLANDER, I didn't understand it. Then AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL brought modelling into the public eye. I watched ZOOLANDER again, and the satire was dead-on. My favorite scene: Derek's airhead male-model pals playfully dousing each other with gasoline hoses to the tune of Wham's "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go." It's all fun and games until somebody lights a match! Later, when Derek opens his own school, his dead pals are immortalized by a huge fountain with water flowing from the bronze gas pumps. David Duchovny is hilarious as a former hand model who keeps his hand encased in a hyperbolic chamber. Owen Wilson steals the show as Derek's rival Hansel, who wins a modelling challenge by removing his underwear without taking off his pants. One of those movies where you notice something new each time you watch it. Definitely one to add to your comedy collection.Read full review...

My wife loves it.

If you’re into stupid comedies, like Austin Powers, you’ll love this movie.
It has a star studded cast and I’d give it an A for uniqueness.
Something we can watch together.

If you like silly

A rather silly movie, but very funny. Ben Stiller will teach you all about the life of a male model. Derek Zoolander (Stiller) is not the most brilliant person in the world, but he sure is, as he puts it, 'really, really, really good looking.'

Ben Stiller is hilarious in this film, along with his co-star Owen Wilson and the other handful of big name stars.

If you like corny comedy, this movies is for you.Read full review...

Good goofy comedy!

Having a poke at the fashion industry (and, more specifically, its preening portfolio of male models) doesn't exactly take a degree in rocket science but Ben Stiller takes a stab at it anyway. If you enjoy the goofy comedy, then this one is for you! Ben Stiller and the great cast (Will Ferrel, Owen Wilson, Christine Taylor) will keep you laughing throughout.Read full review...

Stupid, and not even an entertaining form of stupid

Dumb, dumber, and now, at last, dumbest. The only points in which this comody is remotely humorous are bluntly crude and to most audiences, offecsive. Most of the attempted humor is not crude, but merely not funny. When I watched this movie, I moaned at the punchlines, and wondered why I had not shut it off. The humor that is not crude is all based arround various characters' stupidity. It is not even clever stupitity, which some of the clasic Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin films possessed, and mastered, but rather ill-concieved and, not entertaining.Read full review...
