Review – You Don’t Mess with the Zohan

And if you have an ounce of sense, you don’t see this movie. This Adam Sandler sitcom plays like an hour and 45 minutes of one of those really terrible Saturday Night Live skits. Indeed, a big chunk of it actually was a terrible SNL segment years ago. The premise is pure Sandler: a super Israeli commando comes to America in search of a job as a hairdresser. Along the way we get such an immense pile of ethnic stereotyping and crude sexual innuendo that any chance this production had to shine is smothered under vast heaps of garbage. Truth be told, I probably wouldn’t have seen this at all if there had been anything else on pay-per-view. So this is a valuable lesson for me about being too lazy to just go to the video store. Wish I’d skipped it
