We Believe (NR) Local independent filmmakers Rob Hall and Justin Kelly make the transition from sports bar to cinema. Word has it that this isn't worth your time unless you're a rabid Bucs fan — but you may want to see for yourself.

Zoolander (PG-13) Consistently funny, spot-on spoof of the fashion industry and all its pretty vacant pop culture tentacles. Starring Ben Stiller as the world's most clueless male model. It's doubtful the movie will prove as franchise-fertile as something like Austin Powers, but, frankly, Zoolander is just about as enjoyable and almost as silly. Owen Wilson and comedian Will Ferrell get in some good licks as well, and the numerous cameos — from Jon Voight to David Bowie to Billy Zane to Stiller's mom and dad — are well chosen and a total hoot. The last half-hour of Zoolander falters a bit by trying a little too hard to create a semblance of plot and backstory for its characters, but the bulk of it is great fun. Also stars Christine Taylor.
