The film Zoolander, despite it's lack of juanty musical numbers like 'I Feel Pretty', was better than West Side Story, which I just finished watching and found to be rather preachy and dull, which Zoolander most suredly was not.

This was the last movie we bought on VHS. We quote this movie so often that we finally had to buy the DVD. This is a great role for Ben Stiller, just as famous as his role in Dodge-ball. Owen Wilson rocks the screen as well. Zoolander is a must see for anyone who can appreciate wacky humor. And don't just watch it once...it gets funnier every time. You actually catch things you didn't get the first time. Definitely a favorite in our household of kooks!!

IF YOU ENJOY BEN STILLER MOVIES BECAUSE THEY'RE SO FUNNY, DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY BUYING ZOOLANDER.
THERE ARE A FEW CHUCKLES, BUT I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED. IT CAN'T TO HOLD A CANDLE TO HIS OTHER MOVIES

Not in to this kind of comedy myself, but the kids think it's hilarious. Good for a gift...as long as I don't have to watch it again!

When my neighbor brought this over for us to watch, I rolled my eyes. How could this obviously juvenile, brain-withering pile be amusing in any shape or fashion?
Oh, how wrong I was!
The premise is that Zoolander (Ben Stiller) is the world's Top Model. After being ousted from this position by Hansel (Owen Wilson), Zoolander falls from grace (snigger) into the clutches of evil Mugatu (Will Ferrell). Mugatu brainwashes him to become the perfect assassin in order to kill the Malaysian prime minister so that he cannot promote child labor laws. Sound ridiculous? Yeah. It is. It's the strangest, best kind of ridiculous I've watched since Oedekerk's Kung Pow.
I laughed non-stop during this movie. It is ridiculously, hilariously stupid, unapologetically so. Will Ferrell is so delightfully over-the-top and so horribly dressed that I kept waiting to see him again. Ben Stiller is so adorably stupid -- something like watching a train wreck in slow motion. The only parts I didn't like were the sexual ones (specifically, the orgy scene, the massage scene, and almost everything relating to Ballstein), but quite frankly, that was just my personal taste. Even those things are so ridiculous that you can't take them all that seriously.
The wonderful stupidity, the lines, the story -- it is all so ridiculous, so out there, so unique -- that you'll most likely find it a delectable treat. Oh, it's fluffy and has all the nutritional content of cotton candy, but what a joyride! Marvel at the gasoline fight accident! The Center for Kids Who Don't Read Good! The miniature cell phone! The mermaid... I mean, man! The icing on the cake is definitely the multitude of cameos. This is comedic gold and it never gets old.
All of this said, I completely understand why some people would give this one star. You'll either really hate it or you'll really like it -- it depends on whether or not you enjoy stupid humor.
