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%

I'll have Ben Stiller fixed in my mind as an original filmmaker, also considering his previous The Cable Guy. Zoolander is a hard to describe film, with an original story and some brilliant scenes. I can't say I laughed my ass off, but it's definitely not boring crap.

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.

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.

Ingeniously dumb and dumbly ingenious - a total parody of a lifestyle, life and everything. Indescribable absurdity multiplied by infinity, which goes all the way ad absurdum. For Christ’s sake, I so want to a man who looks not just good, but really good, like a male model, and I wish I could manage at least Zoolander’s Magnum. I’m not setting my sights on Blue Steel quite yet, but the day will come... Lucky I have this on CD and so can have countless repeat viewings to get Derek’s prize expression down to a T.
