Ben Stiller doesn’t think “Zoolander 2” deserved the negative reception from critics and audience members alike. The actor shared his thoughts about the 2016 sequel while eating extra spicy chicken wings on the season 25 finale of “Hot Ones.”
When asked by host Sean Evans which of his movies “was most misunderstood or treated unfairly by critics, now with the benefit of hindsight,” Stiller named “Zoolander 2” after some thought. “Oh, man, I don't know,” Stiller told Evans. “I mean, look, it's very hard to analyze why critics like something or don't. I'm always surprised when critics love something and I'm always surprised when they hate something because it's so subjective.”
