You Don't Mess With The Zohan (DVD) > Reviews

Advantages: Funny as hell.
Disadvantages: Not for most

...every respect comparable to marmite; you either love it, or you hate it. Myself, I fall into the former category (for the film and marmite, at least no one steals my sandwiches). The Plot Pointless is the word here, the films primary concern is being funny, and the ridiculous plot takes a back seat). Basically, an Iranian counter terrorist gets tired of his life, fakes his own death (amazingly convincingly) and goes to America to become ... Read review

Advantages: Some decent stunt sequences.
Disadvantages: It's not funny.

...the execrable "I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry" I would have given it an exceptionally wide berth. Sadly I was sucked in by the slapstick shenanigans of the trailer, much to my chagrin. Dennis Dugan seems pathologically incapable of shooting comedy. He has no comic timing to speak of, allowing jokes to go on too long or repeating the same gag long after it has ceased to be funny. This is especially true of Zohan's propensity for catching things ... Read review

Advantages: Emmanuelle Chiqrui seems ok and the plot could have been ok in theory
Disadvantages: Crap jokes, bad taste

...I have (I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry, Happy Gilmore and 50 First Dates, I thought they were ok), so I had no reason to expect a disaster when it came to Zohan. Sandler with his bufonted hairstyle was hard for me to recognise, I have to admit there were a few moments of slapstick laughter or parts which I found funny but definitely not enough considering the whole film was a joke and there was a joke in just about every line. Sandler (Zohan) ... Read review

Advantages: nice comic ideas used, laughs throughout the movie
Disadvantages: messy plot, not too serious, can get boring

...ideas and it will keep you bursting with laughter after every few minutes. If you are into a sex comedy film then this will not let you down! However, even though the film has a lot of comic laughs throughout, the plot is a little messy. There is not enough seriousness in the movie which builds excitement and this can get quite boring without it. At first, I sat down watching the first several minutes and I enjoyed what I had spent my money on, ... Read review

Advantages: adam sandlers charm and humor
Disadvantages: Too many sexual references/scenes

...tricks but is just so you know what kind of movie this is going to be. There is a certain scene at the beginning where he cooks fish naked on a beach when he throws it up in the air and catches it in his backside which is always a thoroughly amusing part. He then gets taken off by his commander, to capture a terrorist. Zohan has other ideas... He wants to cut and style hair. When he tells his parents this they certainly don't take the idea seriously. ... Read review

This is one of the best movies i have ever watched in my life. I would highly recommend this to everyone! This film was Produced by the Happy Madison Production company which is in fact Adam Sandlers own production company. Adam Sandler does an amazing job in the film and generally makes it overall an extremely enjoyable film. A Little bit about the movie: In this film we follow an Israeli Couter-terrorist army commado named Zohan. He ... Read review

Adam Sandler isn't exactly known as highbrow comedy, but Indiana Jones was hardly Shakespeare, and look how popular that was. "Don't Mess With The Zohan" is standard Sandler form in the very silly and pretty dumb humour, but to any Adam Sandler fans, that is the attraction. Sometimes you just need a silly funny film to laugh at. No thinking, just laughing. And this delivers in droves. With a truckload of over the top characters and a lot of catchy buzz phrases, Zohan delivers as a simple comedy that does what it sets out to do: Make you laugh. If you like Adam Sandler, catch this, it's one of his best.

...Well worth watching, especially if you are a big Adam Sandler fan, as this is one of his best roles to date, It's got all the classic comedy that you associste with Sandler, it's got the love interest in sexy actress, Emmanuelle Chriqui and the jokes are fast flowing, well thought up and delivered to perfection.

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Boring, Too Long, Not Funny

I have just recently seen this film and I must be honest it isnt Adam Sandlars greatest movie. In fact I think it is very poor film. It starts quite funny with Adam Sandler(Zohan) being quite commical however it gets boring after about 20 minutes and stays like this for the rest of the film. Felt like the film was never going to end. It had a poor cast list and also who really wants to watch a film about hair dressing. I certainly dont. Guys dont ... Read review
