Zoolander No. 2

Far too much of the film feels a laundry list of references to the original.

While not a film likely to have a lot in the way of staying power, I still enjoyed Zoolander 2, the sequel reminding me that Stiller is a creatively inspired director who should probably step behind the camera more often than he right now does.

Failing to tap into practically any of the charm of its predecessor is Zoolander 2, a supposed comedy devoid of practically any creativity and humor.

One of the most unnecessary sequels of all time (yes, I've seen Speed 2).

Agonizingly paced and bewilderingly outdated, Ben Stiller's long-awaited sequel is a sad march through every single joke from the 2001 original.

Silly jokes and A-list cameos pass the time, but it's pretty much more of the same from Ben Stiller, Luke Wilson, Will Ferrell and the rest of the gang.

The audience leaves the theater thinking, "It took them 15 years to come up with this?!"

If my seven years on Twitter have taught me anything, it's that bitterness rarely brings the funny.

Ben Stiller reprises his role as a former model in a throwaway but amusing sequel.

The best thing about Zoolander 2 is that it is such a fashion faux pas and so desperately unfunny it's hard to imagine Stiller and Company making a third one fifteen years from now.
