OK, this movie isn't going to change your life or anything but it's got some very funny scenes.

Robert Downey Jr playing a white Australian who's playing a black American soldier from 1969 is good, and even better interacting with the real black guy in their unit.

Ben Stiller's characater has some good moments too. Jack Black, less so.

But, the final scene with Tom Cruise, playing a very un-Tom Cruise like character, was worth seeing the movie for alone.

'I'm the dude who plays a dude who plays another dude'

Just saw this flick

Agree the whole thing is worth it just to see Tom Cruise as Les Grossman.

I just saw this too. I didn't even realize that character was Tom Cruise at first! He was funny. Best line from the movie - mostly for its delivery:

Les Grossman: Now I want you to take a step back... and literally f*** your own face!

Better late then never, I guess. It's good to see that the positive points of this movie are slowly being appreciated.

Soon you will all come to love Zoolander! It's never too late to realize...that Hansel, so hot right now.
