You Don't Mess With the Zohan

07/07/2008 Posted by tcourville

We went as a family outing with our 13 year old, big mistake. PG13 what a laugh, and how did they figure that one anyway??? Oh, we got a couple laughs once the movie started. There is stupid, then there is stupid, and what about vulgar and the language horrible. This has to be the worst movie ever with Adam Sandler. A big disappointment, it could have been so much better. Some people still rely on ratings, but thats a joke too.

There should be a higher rating for this movie. But adults will find some laughs hear. Not a bad movie just sexual situations which make the younger audience squeamish and embarrassed. The adults in my group enjoyed it but the younger ones not. I do enjoy something the whole family can enjoy but this is a great movie for young or older adults who want a laugh and have no problem with sexual situations. The movie is sort of dumb but with Adam Sandler you expect that and he pulls it off with great acting. Plus the story is very good you get entertainment plus something to learn about different nationalities who come together. It was worth the watch but keep those under 16 at home that is my take. So go see it and enjoy Adam at his always best or wait for the DVD no matter its a good run of the mill Sandler movie+lesson in humanity.

Pros: Sandler at his usual antics, some good laughs and a decent story

Cons: sexual situations make this more for 16plus audience

I'm sure that Adam Sandler, Robert Smigel, and Judd Apatow wrote what they consider to be a cute, topical comedy. I found it painful and gross. I kept getting up and walking out of the theater and then returning in the hopes that something would make it worth the eight dollars I paid to see it. Unfortunately that was not to be. Adam Sammon did a great Israeli English accent but of the rest of his performance was so far over the top I sat cringing in my seat. I can understand that part of the conflict weary patriot who needs to escape an endless, and to them pointless, daily struggle. I have no problem with the extreme change in careers. But the unnecessarily and pointless crudeness did not build a story that I found worth watching. Obviously, the people who put this together have great talent - but this is not a good showcase of those abilities.

Pros: Emmanuelle Chriqui

Cons: Just about everything else

I have never written a review, however, after going to this movie with my daughter and girlfriend we left feeling dirty. It is a shame that after an incredible job in REIGN OVER ME, Adam Sandler arrives with such a lack of class and a not so funny at all effort. Hey.. I am no prude and love a funny, goofy movie. This one is not it. Spare yourself the money and embarrassment of wasting a couple of hours in a real lousy (and I mean lousy) movie.

Pros: None

Cons: Very, very crude and not funny.

I loved "You don't mess with the Zohan" it is an incredibly funny movie and has a hot lead! It is by far one of my favorites. I'm the kind of person who loves crude-ness just because. I highly recommend it.

Pros: hilarious

Cons: none

First of all, The Sandman delivers again, very funny. Language is no worse that George Bush’s or (D) ick Cheney’s on Capitol Hill and as for the (s) ex, if you’re the kind of person who pretends (s) ex does not exist, you might not like it (jesus freaks need not apply) normal people will enjoy.

Pros: Sandman Humor

Cons: none

I took my 13 year old son and had to walk out because of language. First PG-13 movie I've ever had to leave. Really stupid and awful.

Pros: none

Cons: language very crude, should have gotten "R" rating

WOW, this movie is not for kids. Sexual content throughout the entire movie. This should have been rated "R". Language was not good in parts. Not one of Adam Sandler's best movies.

I cannot believe how bad this movie was - I have never taken the time to do a review before but felt so strongly about how bad this one was I had to express my thoughts. Awful!!

The movie theater was full and no one laughed the whole way through the movie. I know it's Adam Sandler and it is supposed to be stupid, but it is also supposed to be funny. If it was just me I'd say OK I didn't get it. But NO ONE LAUGHED. You won' t either. Flush your money down the toilet, at least then you won't lose those 90 minutes, too.

Pros: At last it wasn't long.

Cons: Any worse and I might have died.
