It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

I've been putting this movie off for some time, because the reviews I stumbled upon were not in favor of the movie, and I had actually only heard fairly bad stuff about this sequel. And it wasn't before I stumbled upon it on Netflix and decided to watch it out of having nothing better to watch.It turns out that "Zoolander 2", while it wasn't as funny and outstanding as the first "Zoolander" movie, actually turned out better than I had anticipated. There were some good laughs here and there throughout the movie.Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson do carry the movie quite nicely, just a shame that Will Ferrell didn't have a larger part in the movie. They did have a pretty interesting ensemble of supporting performers, such as Penélope Cruz, Christine Taylor and Milla Jovovich.The storyline was adequate, albeit very very generic and predictable."Zoolander 2" is as to be expected from your average sequel, there are worse comedies out there.

Ben Stiller returns as the incredibly good-looking but incredibly stupid Derek Zoolander, who, with the help of fellow male model Hansel (Owen Wilson) and sexy interpol agent Valentina (Penélope Cruz), attempts to rescue his son Derek Jr. (Cyrus Arnold) from evil fashion designer Mugatu (Will Ferrell).The original Zoolander was one of those films that was so fresh and incredibly silly that it was difficult not to enjoy. This belated sequel tries its hardest to recreate the magic of the first film, taking the lunacy to even greater heights, but this time around the whole affair feels far too calculated, the result being way too many gags that fall flat (and far too many celebrity cameos).Owen Wilson gets a few chucklesome lines of dialogue ("By now she's just a couple of teeth", "She had a mouth like Chinese finger cuffs"), and the sight of the luscious Cruz in a basque is always a bonus (as is her 'sexy fighting' with Milla Jovovich), but overall this is a hugely disappointing sequel. Even the violent on-screen death of popstar Justin Bieber isn't as much fun as it ought to be.

I have to say that this movie really took me by surprise. Not 'surprise' as in it wasn't predictable (because it was pretty predictable, lol), but 'surprise' as in I was surprised at how enjoyable and sincere the over-the-top comedy elements were. Usually when I watch an over-the-top comedy, it makes me roll my eyes; but the over-the-top comedy elements in this movie had me genuinely laughing and enjoying the movie from start to finish. These guys aren't out to make you think deeply about life, they are just trying to make you laugh!

Its one of those movies, you like it or you hate it. If you like the first one, like I did, there is a reasonable chance you love this one as well. I think the bad rating and reviews for this second one are a related to it wrong timing. The first one was, as many movies are, a product of its time. Back then it was funny to see the fashion world ridicule it self in a most outrages way. So its no surprise this one picks it up where they left off in the first one, and take it one or two steps further, something I loved but it increases the love/ hate factor as well. If this one was made 3 years after the first, it was probably better received. Its a movie that is just entertainment, noting more, if you can put on that filter, you will enjoy it, if you put on any other filter, there is so many things to hate about it. Again there is a convoy of celebrities making cameo's and some of them are very entertaining, seeing Ariana Grande in a SM outfit will raise more then a eyebrow and seeing Justin Bieber blown to smithereens for more then a minute by a hail of bullets, I am still looking for a GIF At the end when ask why Bieber had to die ? Mugatu's answer was epic !
