Rating: Summary: a waste of your time & money Review: This was the most banal of movies I've ever attended. I left about half way through when every hope of improvement had vanished. I can't believe the NY TIMES gave it a review at all. I'm writing this in hopes of saving others from a lost evening. Believe me, you have better things to do.
Rating: Summary: Terrible movie! Review: I can't believe these are the same people who worked in "Meet the Parents". Stupid from start to finish!
Rating: Summary: It all about the face. Review: The move is about two super models. Ben's charator starts the movie by going to an award sarimony for best male model. After four years he loses to the other guy. After that he starts thinking about life. He goes to a gas station and his friends have a gasoline fight. They die, but not Ben. The movie moves on and Ben keeps make his specil face. It's funny because it almost seems true how model are. Pretty and stupid. If nothing else, see it to see how many famus people you recognize.
Rating: Summary: Zoolander a Complete Bomb Review: Ben Stiller playing a supermodel is a ridiculous premise from the get go, unless he's modeling for Horse Face magazine. This movie takes the Austin Powers concept and adapts it to the world of fashion. Great idea. :(~Problem: people like Bond movies, but do they give a hoot about fashion modeling? Probably not. But lifting from Austin Powers goes beyond just a premise: Zoolander's "blue steel" facial expression, his modeling trademark, is pretty much the Doctor Evil expression. It's like Stiller is begging to be sued. And although the homeless are the brunt of an entire segment in Zoolander, the obvious target for fashion industry humor is mysteriously avoided. But tickets have to be sold.
Rating: Summary: not as funny as it could have been Review: I applaud Ben Stiller for what (I think) is his first effort at writing and directing a film. All in all, it really wasn't bad. He's pretty funny himself in the movie - although his voice grates on you by the end - and Owen Wilson also gives an amusing, at times hysterical performance. There are plenty of celebrity cameos, some of which seemed pointless (David Bowie) and some of which were hilarious (David Duchovny). However, even if you add up all the funny parts, the movie still comes off as lacking. Great soundtrack though. I'd recommend it to people who love Austin Powers type humor but aren't expecting too much.
Rating: Summary: Unbelievably Stupid Review: I must say, this movie looked sooo incredibly funny! I was really excited about seeing it, and was really dissapointed with it. Few parts were laughable. Zoolander was nothing it had been said to be. Most movies are stupidly funny, and this one was just stupid. I rarely dislike movies, and yet I din't like it. If you still want to see it, wait until it's at Blockbuster. It wasn't worth (the money).
Rating: Summary: booring and too silly to be funny...........save your money! Review: i was excited to see this movie and spent 30.00 to take 4 people to see zoolander! wow, what a waste of time and money. ben stiller wasnt himself as he was in "meet the parents" and it seems the movie was trying to rip off austin powers (funny movie) the only problem is that ben stiller isnt mike myers! ben, stick with what you did in "meet the parents" and "something about mary" because this zoolander thing just isnt for you or your audience.......
Rating: Summary: Stupid and not funny enough Review: I liked some of the recent stupid-funny movies, so I gave this one a look. I think I laughed maybe 8-10 times. I smiled once in a while. It started slow and seemed disconnected often, like jokes with a story trying to tie them together. The scene where Derek Zoolander has to hide out with his friend is so irrelevent to moving the story-line. The implied sex in that scene is also a waste. I "got" the spoofing. It just wasn't all that funny. It is a shame, because I really like Ben Stiller.
Rating: Summary: One of the Greatest Ben Stiller Movies Ever Review: Ben Stiller's new comedy Zoolander will make you laugh. Stiller plays Derek Zoolander, a famous male model who gets beaten at an awards show for best model by a new face in the modeling business, Hansel (Owen Wilson). Zoolander quits the modeling business, and his manager (Jerry Stiller) is furious. Zoolander is then hired again by a famous fashion designer, Mugatu (Will Ferell), but Mugatu brainwashes Derek to kil the prime minister of Malaysia. Now, with the help of a curious reporter (Christine Taylor), the most famous model in the world (David Duchovny), and even Hansel, Derek tries to beat Mugatu and his brainwash machine. With cameos by Jon Voight, Billy Zane, Donald Trump, David Bowie, Lance Bass and many more, I suggest that Ben Stiller fans should come see this movie!
