That's how you find out one day that you don't have a review for Zoolander, even though you love that movie about a totally dumb good guy (who controls so many different perspectives) so much. A very funny and very clever comedy that has no problem switching between crackling humor and moments that I'm not afraid to call poignant and yet still funny, well cast and not giving a damn.

This is definitely one of the craziest and most bullshit films to ever see the light of day. So why the 3 stars? Maybe because of Ben Stiller's absolute parody of himself, which he handles with aplomb? Or perhaps due to the bizarreness of a few scenes? Who knows?! In short, it's bollocks, but not the kind of bollocks like other comedies of its kind, but the kind with that "higher calling".

I just love this comedy. It's so stupid it's great. It's playing on foolishness, yet at the same time, it's an excellent critique of what is actually important in our society. There are absolutely fantastic characters here that will stick in your memory, partly because their portrayals were so committed, and the actors weren't afraid to give it their all.

A comedy that is almost hurt by its goofiness. I expected many things from a film with such a stellar cast, but what I got was a slightly above-average romp that only exploits Stiller's ability to make fun of everything and everyone with complete obviousness. This time, he takes on the modelling industry with very mixed results. When Derek confidently strides for his prize, I admittedly had to struggle with a burst of laughter, but watching crazy Will Ferrell with his "evil and malicious" plans made me want to turn off the TV. It was certainly not a waste of time, but if someone mentions Zoolander in front of me, my reaction will probably be the same forever: “That was quite some bullshit”. 60%

On most works of the legendary Frat Pack, I can find a surprisingly large number of mistakes, but this is the best. Insane, at times incomprehensible, but full of absurd humor and immensely funny, and striving for the highest rating from me. Zoolander has exactly the swagger and the right way of uncontrollability and unclassifiability that I can adore, even at an age when I am no longer the target audience.
