ZOOLANDER (Theatrical Release USA 2001)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.0|5.0 Starsìììì

Zoolander—Ben Stiller, Jerry Stiller, Owen Wilson, Will Ferrell, Jon Voight, Milla Jovovich, David Duchovny—explores the world of high fashion, its competitiveness, complications, and instability with comedy and a little compassion mixed into its storyline. It’s an adult watch that is completely unique and appeals to an intellectual audience. Be aware that there are places in the movie where sexual dialogue works in the highly explicit context.
