Zoolander Review

Zoolander Review

Whatever Zoolander is or is not, it is completely and utterly committed to the gag. It full on drives it home with every frame, every word - the sad part is that the gag is not worth all the trouble. However, not even the considerable comic talents of...more

Zoolander Review
by Eugene Novikov (Rating: A)
Zoolander, an exceptionally sophisticated comedy from the brilliant comic mind of Ben Stiller, is rapidly becoming one of the year's most misunderstood films. I've seen it called stupid entertainment meant to take our minds off the recent tragedy, but...more

Zoolander Review
by Homer Yen (Rating: C+)
While trailers make it seem like a spy flick parody, "Zoolander" is practically the opposite of Austin Powers. AP is a shagadelic, bespectacled spy that touches the world of fashion. Ben Stiller's "Zoolander" is a fashion model that touches the...more

Susan Granger's review of "ZOOLANDER" (Paramount Pictures) If you love satire, this is for you. Claiming he based his moronic character on a "cross between Jason Priestly and Luke Perry," Director/writer/actor Ben Stiller has created vacuous,...more

Zoolander Review
by Ram Samudrala
It's great to see that America hasn't lost its taste for gratuitous violence given the events of September 11, 2001. There's a hilarious scene in /Zoolander/ where three male models spray petrol on each other playfully (like a soap commercial). One of...more

Zoolander Review

Movies are back, and the public is flocking to see them. After a week in which nothing opened in Santa Fe and only the Mariah Carey flop “Glitter” tested the waters nationwide, the screens are alive with the sound of movies, as people try to...more

Zoolander Review
by David N. Butterworth (Rating: 1.5/4)
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 in "Zoolander," his latest turn behind the camera. It's...more

Zoolander Review
by JoBlo (Rating: 7/10)
PLOT: Derek Zoolander is a male model. He is also very dumb and impressionable. For that reason, he is secretly hired and trained (so secret, that even he doesn't know about it) by an underground fashion syndicate to assassinate the prime minister of...more

Zoolander Review
by Annette Cardwell (Rating: 3.5/5)
In Zoolander, the world's most successful, influential and intellectually-challenged male model Derek Zoolander wonders, "Is there more to life than being really really really good looking?" Obviously, the film's creator and star Ben Stiller asked a...more
Zoolander Review
by Jon Popick
Filling the hole usually occupied by crappy Saturday Night Live skits-turned-feature films, Ben Stiller's Zoolander is a comedy cut from the same cloth as Airplane and The Naked Gun. Like those pictures, it throws a lot of jokes at the audience, but...more
Zoolander Review
by Steve Rhodes (Rating: 3.5/4)
Making a movie that's stupid fun must be really hard since most filmmakers that try end up with a picture that's merely stupid. Rarely are they as successful as Ben Stiller is with ZOOLANDER, a film in which he is the director, star and co-writer. The...more
