Review of Zoolander (2001) by Kj P — 06 Aug 2015
"Zoolander" is essentially a showcase for the comedic talents of these famous actors through their glory days, and it definitely does not fall short on the gags. Ben Stiller and Own Wilson both had me laughing hysterically, even though the dialogue they were saying was so incredibly dumb.
It does work in the context of the film though. The basic story of this film is that Ben Stiller's character, being the dumb male model that he is, needs to retain his title of the worlds best, because it is really all he has in life.
There is a sweet undertone beneath these elements as well that I really enjoyed. The one word I cannot wrap my head around while explaining this film, however, is stupid. "Zoolander" is a tremendously stupid picture that encapsules idiots in the most bizarre scenarios.
Did I enjoy the hell out of this film? Absolutely! Is it great? Absolutely not!
