Zoolander
in theatres 16 February 2006 (just about 5year slow) 4/5stars



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). Meanwhile, the clueless cover guy must also contend with a new rival, a blonde hipster named Hansel (Owen Wilson). Only adding to his troubles is Matilda Jeffries (Christine Taylor), an inquisitive and sensitive journalist.

Stiller's charming and silly comedy liberally skewers the fashion industry while showcasing the actor-director-screenwriter's quirky humor. He casts his real-life family in the film: wife Christine Taylor, sister Amy Stiller, father Jerry Stiller, and mother Anne Meara. As a director, Stiller invokes entertaining performances from Wilson and Ferrell. He also adds cameos by a multitude of celebrities including David Bowie, Natalie Portman, and Lenny Kravitz.

"terrible, but in a good way" =D ive been looking for this show for soo long man!!and just when i managed to get my hands on a pirated copy, they decide to release it in theatres...dun blame me for turning to pirated sources cos there was no other choice in this case cos the movie was banned and so you cant even rent the vcd or dvd here. reason for being banned was because the prime minister of malaysia is supposed to be assasinated in the show. dont know why they decided to release the show now though..maybe they changed the guy meant to be assinated. you have to watch this show to find out whats the zoolander look. its a pop cult must know man..hahah
