	Zoolander - Rotten Tomatoes
		Derek Zoolander (Ben Stiller) isn't smart, but he looks "really, really good." An empty-headed yet kindhearted male model, the self-absorbed Derek becomes an unwitting pawn in a international assassination plot masterminded by oddball fashion dictator Jacobim Mugatu (Will Ferrell).
		A movie has to be somewhat smart to be so successfully silly, and Zoolander is a comedy that nails its targets with impressive regularity.
		What Zoolander does have, and this was enough for me, is a sublime comic performance by Owen Wilson.

	Zoolander
		Zoolander is male model to the extreme – fashion savvy but empty headed – and plans to win Male Model of the Year for the 4th consecutive time.
		Zoolander brings us well within the fashion world to the point that I believe there were some jokes that I missed; such as one cameo from Paris Hilton, who I certainly would not have known when the film came out in 2001, much less at the time it was filmed.
		Zoolander also manages to capture all of the glitter and glam of the fashion world, as well as its shallowness.

	ZOOLANDER
		Zoolander, like Superstar and Ladies' Man, was born in sketch comedy, expanding a character created by Stiller for the 1996 and 1997 VH-1 Fashion Awards.
		Most of Zoolander's laughs come at the expense of male models, but the film's biggest gag might be its attempt to push Stiller (who's practically a chimp) and Wilson (who has the worst nose in Hollywood) as the cream of the world's modeling crop.
		And Zoolander is yet another film that previously featured shots of the World Trade Center, which have been removed from the prints that will make their way to theatres near you.

	Zoolander
		Zoolander attends Mugatu’s Day Spa to be pampered and massaged, only to be brainwashed into becoming an unwitting assassin.
		Mugatu, who's never used Zoolander in one of his campaigns before, appeals to his vanity by asking him to be the spokesmodel for his new 'Derelicte' line (inspired by the homeless).
		Zoolander's brainwashing scene utilizes retro pop-art and music video imagery to its best effect while his 'walk-off' with Hansel, a split-screen, gun-slinging parody set to Michael Jackson's 'Beat It' is the film's comic highlight.

		Zoolander is essentially an Austin Powers clone, only instead of a giant James Bond in-joke it is a giant male model in-joke.
		Zoolander (Ben Stiller) and his arch-rival Hanson (Owen Wilson) are the epitome of every person you've seen so into themselves that real life just fails to be as interesting as what's in a mirror.

	Zoolander (2001)
		Zoolander returns to modeling when Mugatu lures him into the fold - all as a pretense for the scheme - and Derek also deals with his rival Hansel.
		While it was necessary for Zoolander to be an idiot, Stiller fails to find any heart in the role.
		While the movie has enough entertaining material to warrant a look, it suffers from the blandness of its star; when the lead actor is the worst thing about a movie, that becomes a trap from which it can’t escape.

	Zoolander - Preview Online
		Zoolander never gets ruffled: perfectly dressed and immaculately coiffured, he has been Male Model of the Year for three years running.
		And, in the autumn of 2000, Stiller was present at the Fashion Awards, both in his Zoolander persona and as director of a new Paramount/Village Roadshow comedy of the same name which took advantage of the red carpet affair at Madison Square Garden to shoot a few key scenes.
		The whole fashion world is central to Zoolander the movie - so much so, in fact, that the film’s costume designer, David C Robinson, must have thought he was in heaven.

	Radio Free Movie Review: Zoolander (2001)
		Zoolander, with its focus on a blundering agent of espionage, is reminiscent of the Austin Powers films, and suffers from most of the same flaws as the Mike Myers franchise: characters that tend to be one-joke ponies, gags that miss the mark, and an incomprehensible need to slop on unnecessary sentiment.
		Zoolander is as dumb as a rock, an all around ignorant bastard more mentally crippled than a stoner at a Cypress Hill concert.
		Zoolander also has a distinct weakness that has plagued his modeling career for as long as he can remember: he can't turn left.

	Salon.com Arts & Entertainment \| "Zoolander"
		Derek Zoolander (Ben Stiller, reprising the character he played in two previous short films) is a fabulously successful male model whose voice has the breathless ditziness of a Marilyn Monroe caricature; his phrases are so precise it's as if they've been plucked into shape with tweezers, but they don't make much sense.
		Mugatu hopes to turn Zoolander into a killer, specifically to murder the prime minister of Malaysia, who has had the audacity to crack down on child labor infractions, thus endangering the profit margins of every fashion designer in the free world.
		And some of the movie's silliness is as light and as fleeting as dandelion fluff: For instance, the way Zoolander, after speaking at the funeral of three of his closest male-model friends (they were killed when a playful gasoline fight turned tragic), identifies himself to Matilda as a eugoogleizer.
