As hig concepts go, You Don't Mess With the Zohan" takes the cake.
Nothing has brought me more cheap pleasure at a movie this year than the sight of shampoo and conditioner bottles falling off a rocking wall while comedian Alec Mapa, as a fellow stylist, tries to keep a straight face. He does a much better job than I did.

this is the best movie ever written recorded and thought of this is pure comedy. comedy at its peak. this movie is a perfect representation for all Australian Tibet people we do get confused with counter-terrorists from Israel named Zohan that have a passion for hair cutting and sex with god-like powers.

I don't care what others say to me this movie was a banger!
It's funny how this system makes me type a lot when I already said what I had to say

Imagine Warren Beatty in "Shampoo" by way of a Jewish Rambo.
Spectacularly, unimpeachably, relentlessly preposterous.
The off-the-wall comedy of Robert Smigel and Judd Apatow leaves a mark on the script, but it would require a talent of Peter Sellers' magnitude to conquer this material, and he's not around.
At a time when the images of Arab-Americans are already largely negative, do we really need more violently temperamental, bomb throwing men in turbans and beards?
I am one of those people who enjoy most of Adam Sandler's movie including the one that got bad reception, but i can't lie that You Don't Mess With The Zohan is indeed a pretty bad movie, but again i also can't lie that i was pretty much entertain through out the film, so it's a pretty bad movie overall but it's still entertaining at least for me.

You Don’t Mess with the Zohan considers to be Dennis Dugan’s “best work” when he combines the awful slapstick humor elements and satire together in a way that would get you socially and politically. And yes, this film and Click are the only decent flicks that’s actually worth seeing Adam Sandler getting crazy.
Report
The used-to-be-funny Adam Sandler plays some extraordinary guy in an inconsistent and unfunny movie that is filled with cheap comedy that sometimes doesn't make sense and tons of awkward product placement that just feels like you are watching a Sony advert and that they might be struggling with sales.
I don't even remember the plot of this movie, that's how forgettable it is, there could've been potential but you know your typical Adam Sandler, there seems to be **** nothing ever pulls through.
