Gen X comic actor Ben Stiller ("Meet the Parents") earns a few more frequent-funny miles with his latest vehicle, satirizing the fashion industry and today's media-driven star-making machinery. He directed it, co-wrote it and plays the title character, the vacuous, narcissistic yet incredibly popular male model Derek Zoolander. Stiller's targets are barn-sized: meaningless awards shows, gossip-fueled magazines and TV programs, the fickleness of the American public and — Austin Powers be damned! — spy movies. Easygoing Owen Wilson ("Shanghai Noon"), as Derek's modeling rival Hansel, and "SNL"'s Will Ferrell, as the designing arch-villain, effortlessly steal the film from Stiller. But the real reason to catch this is the peppering of fashion-scene in-jokes and celebrity cameos that zip past so fast, you're lucky to catch half of them. Stiller's wife Christine Taylor is Derek's love interest; his father Jerry Stiller is Derek's double-dealing agent; Milla Jovovich is the lissome femme fatale. | |||
