Zoolander (2001)



At the end of his career, a clueless fashion model is brainwashed to kill the Prime Minister of Malaysia.

Deliberately silly, but actually entertaining spoof with lots of stars cameos; the cast seem to be enjoying the show.

Halliwell*: "Energetic farce that aims to be a satire on pop culture, but is too toothless for the task."

Maltin**1/2: "Clever comedy...Funny gags, satiric ideas, eye-popping production design, and celebrity cameos...make this fun for a while, but it can't sustain an entire film."

Bewitched (2005)



Thinking he can overshadow an unknown actress in the part, an egocentric actor unknowingly gets a witch cast in an upcoming television remake of the classic show "Bewitched."

Lacklustre romantic comedy that is not that amusing and leaves one wondering, why any girl would fall for this guy.

Maltin**: "Postmodern riff on the popular 1960s TV series...Inoffensive comedy allows Kidman to be cute, but has no genuine emotions or sentiments because its premise is so cpmpletely artificial."
