9 Reasons Zoolander 2 Is A Disappointment (And 2 It's Not)

And 2 Reasons It's Not...

2. The Cameos Are Insane

Though we won't spoil the best ones here, rest assured that Zoolander 2 is surely one of the most cameo-filled films ever made. If you thought the original movie's roster was stacked, this one one-ups it in every way possible, be it characters from the first film briefly reprising their roles, legends from the sports and entertainment world playing themselves, and fashion icons and insanely popular actors you'd never expect to show up in a Zoolander movie in a million years. Simply playing "spot the cameo" could nearly justify the cost of a ticket for an enthusiast, because practically every scene has a few ridiculous appearances, and the presences of an iconic TV actor and indelible singer are particularly well thought-out. For all of the film's issues, the cameos add to the unpredictable, anything goes vibe, and at least present the audience with an incentive to view it a second time.
