Clear the runway for Derek Zoolander, VH1's three-time male model of the year. His face falls when hippie-chic Hansel scooters in to steal this year's award. The evil fashion guru Mugatu seizes the opportunity to turn Derek into a killing machine. It's a well-designed conspiracy and only with the help of Hansel and a few well-chosen accessories like Matilda can Derek make the world safe for male models everywhere.

Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
A fashion spoof draped over the bones of a puerile conspiracy adventure, this vanity comedy fails at every level barring its incidental details.

This light silly and fluffy satire of the fashion industry targets for a change not the female but male models.

Doesn't Stiller realize that the fashion world is already its own parody?

Serves as glossy, throwaway fun, and it features more cameos than you can shake a mascara wand at.

During its fleeting moments onscreen, the movie's lighthearted spirit and comic energy make for entertaining, escapist fare.
