Amazon.co.uk Review
If You Don't Mess with the Zohan feels like an extended and crazed sketch from Saturday Night Live, there are reasons for that. Zohan's star and SNL alumnus Adam Sandler is joined by several fellow cast members (in uncredited cameo roles) from his years on the NBC show. But Sandler also co-wrote the film's absurdist script with SNL veteran writer and sometime-performer Robert Smigel. Echoes of a few of their classic skits on the show--built around high-strung Israeli characters obsessed with disco and selling junk electronics out of a New York shop--are revisited in Zohan and are a lot of fun to see again. Zohan is unbridled nonsense thrown at the wall, but with a sunny disposition that proves surprisingly persuasive. Sandler stars as an Israeli intelligence operative who fakes his death to reinvent himself in New York City as a hairdresser. Putting the lie to assumptions that any man in that professional field must be gay, Zohan routinely provides raucous sexual favours for all his older female customers. The sight of bottles of gels and hairsprays falling off shelves while the indefatigable Zohan pleasures frisky grannies is pure SNL, and is funnier than it might sound. The silly story involves an old, Palestinian enemy of Zohan, the Phantom (John Turturro), showing up in Manhattan, but everything is really leading to a Big Apple version of the resolution of Israeli-Palestinian conflicts we'd all like to see on a large scale. The film is almost instantly forgettable, and there are many times it veers toward the dumb, but it also sells itself well as a nutty concept. --Tom Keogh

4.0 out of 5 stars The middle east conflict explained in 2 hours of fun, 15 May 2009
By Antonio Moncayo (Zaragoza) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
I was not expecting a great deal as Sandler's work of late has disappointed me badly ,but due to the middle eastern tone of the film I decided to give it a go.
Is it funny ? hell yeah
Sandler plays an ott israeli anti terrorist agent who is fed up with the constant war and retires to become a hairdresser but his past will not let him in peace.
The sript is rather funny and the jokes are fluent poking fun at multiple stereotypes , mostly jewish. 4 stars

1.0 out of 5 stars You Don't Mess With The Zohan, 3 Jun 2009
This if the first one star review I have ever done and all i have to say is this - please dont let the makers of this film think that they have done a good job by buying, renting or even watching this film for free on the telly. The wonderful art of film has reached rock bottom with this mess and it shouldnt be allowed to grace even the small screen.

Correct me if I'm wrong but was there a funny moment in this film?

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Film, 17 April 2009
By J. Schwartz (Yorkshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is one of the funniest films I have seen for a long time. The jokes are so ridiculous it is just amazing. I am quite surprised at the amount of negative reviews on here, i.e. people complaining about Adam Sandlers character and the contrast between deadly Israeli spy and caring hairdresser, well that in itself is hilarious, I guess some people just don't get it.
