April 5, 2007if you work in an office some movies are mandatory to survive trips to the watercooler. I see this as an investment in my future.

December 4, 2011Zoolander is a well executed, extremely stupid and very funny satire film. It pokes fun at the fashion industry bringing a lot of memorable moments of humour and wit unlike most Ben Stiller comedies. A better cast could not have been picked.

August 6, 2011I never want to be a male model. Derek Zoolander (Ben Stiller) is a famous male model, but when he is snabbed of his glory by anoher male model named Hansel (Owen Wilson), he must learn who he is and what he wants in life. But without Derek knowing it, he is pulled into a organ... read more

July 29, 2011Zoolander gets points for originality and good humor, even if it isn't as aggressively funny as it should be. Everyone does a great job with the acting, but Will Ferrell especially shines through with the funniest performance that I have ever seen from him. Nice, colorful cinemat... read more

March 19, 2011fb732260458This is such a biased consensus - but MAN DO I LOVE THIS MOVIE. Sure, Stiller and crew deliver comedies with a similar success rate as Sandler and Co. (or even Ferrell and Sons), but this one's a winner. It's just so hard to make a bad movie when you're so incredibly, ridiculousl... read more

February 19, 2011Farce is one of the hardest genres to pull off successfully and by and large this film succeeds. There are a few jokes that fall flat but this has several laugh out loud moments. The cast including most of the Stiller family are certainly game. Silly but fun.

If you're aware of -- and amused by -- pop culture, you'll laugh a lot. Full Review

Peter Rainer, New York Magazine
Doesn't Stiller realize that the fashion world is already its own parody? Full Review

Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com
Serves as glossy, throwaway fun, and it features more cameos than you can shake a mascara wand at. Full Review

Kirk Honeycutt, Hollywood Reporter
During its fleeting moments onscreen, the movie's lighthearted spirit and comic energy make for entertaining, escapist fare.
October 3, 2001
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
An oasis of bracing comedy that comes at just the right time, when we're parched for it.
September 28, 2001
Rita Kempley, Washington Post
It's a one-joke movie -- models are vain, bulimic morons -- and it wears out faster than a pair of paper panties.
September 28, 2001
Desson Thomson, Washington Post
Maybe another rewrite, maybe an extra writer, maybe a better concept...
September 28, 2001
Bob Graham, San Francisco Chronicle
Manages to be stretched too thin and overblown at the same time. Full Review
