Plot:
Male supermodel Derek Zoolander is on his way down after three years of continuously winning the "Male Model of the Year" award. When he is beaten by the hot newcomer Hansel, Derek starts searching for a new meaning in his life. Just then fashion czar Mugatu offers Derek a comeback in his new "Derelicte"-line. What nobody suspected is that Mugatu plans to assassinate the new Malaysian Prime Minister on his visit to New York, so that cheap child labor is still available for Mugatu's fashion producing. By brainwashing Zoolander, Mugatu and his evil associate Katinka create a dumb and willing killer to do the job. Only in Time Magazine journalist Matilda suspicion arises slowly, and she tries to stop Derek. IMDB

Review:
This movie is banned in Malaysia and Singapore! I have a feeling only because of how the movie is entirely about child labor laws, and how in the movie they are trying to kill the Prime Minister of Malaysia...

But it is a hilarious movie!! :) Much better than some of Stiller's newest stuff.

It isn't funny "haha," but it is funny.. :/ :) I think most people either really like this movie or really hate it.

Lots of cameos in this movie, Paris Hilton, Donald Trump, Victoria Beckham, Fabio, David Bowe, Billy Zane, just to name a few..

Sometimes I laugh outloud, other times I just shake my head and crunch my eyebrows...
Don't try to take this movie seriously in any way, shape, or form!
