You Don’t Mess with the Zohan
You Don’t Mess with the Zohan has got to be the only Adam Sandler movie I wanted to see in the theatre. (Click! was a Kate Beckinsale movie. That’s what I keep saying to myself.) It looked stupid funny, and I find it incredible that they can make jokes about the Palestine/Israel conflict.
And that’s what it was. Lots of politics surrounded featuring the bone-headed-ness of the entire Middle East problem. And it made you laugh if it weren’t so funny. Good for Adam Sandler to make fun of that issue, because it is pretty stupid when you think about it.
This movie was a good popcorn flick. It’s what summer is all about. Stupid fun. And it had some morals to share with the world — deep down we’re all the same. Our ambition, your ambition, they are all the same dream. Let’s stop this fighting and do something we all agree on is great…
… DISCO!!!!!
I got to admit the middle east inflected pop music used in the soundtrack is great. I was wondering if Ofra Haza would show up? Good beats. Good eats. Fun summertime pastime to while away in AC away from the heat.
It’s not for everyone, but turn off your brain and it’ll be fine.
3 of 5 stars.

Humus and Mariah Carey. popcorn with humus? how about coke with humus? the humor in humus. hmmm…
And the sex. Indiscriminate on the age.
But the hummus would’ve been nice.
haha! Adam Sandler is getting old. he used to be digging college girls as Billy Madison(?)
and i just sabotaged the hummus into a humus. thanks for noting the lack of -m-.
Adam Sandler is classic in his own way, though he tends to do better when he isn’t trying too hard to be funny or deep… his main area of expertise seems to be casual, unassuming comedies
