You Don’t Mess With The Zohan

Sandler’s first comedy worth messing with in a long time

When you saw the first trailer for You Don’t Mess With The Zohan, you probably thought exactly what everyone else thought: That looks awful. Surprisingly enough, if you can handle the vulgar factor, Zohan is a lot better than it looks.

Adam Sandler plays Zohan, the most effective Israeli combat soldier. Tired of secret operations always ruining his personal life, he decides to fake his death, move to America and fulfill his ambitions as a hair stylist.

Though Zohan is PG-13, it is a very R-rated PG-13. It goes way beyond potty humor. There are countless references to gentile and sexual habits, you’ll see many women (all very old women) in sexually compromising positions, lots of male and female butt, as well as countless visual innuendos mimicking NC-17 behavior. Be warned.

Written by Sandler, Robert Smigel (SNL) and Judd Apatow, YOU DON’T MESS WITH THE ZOHAN is random, cameo-stuffed comedy you’ve been waiting to see Happy Madison Productions make.
