Comedy superstar Adam Sandler is back - and funnier than ever - as The Zohan, the finest counterterrorist agent the Israeli army has. That is, until he fakes his death and travels to Manhattan to live his dream... as a hairdresser. Now this skilled fighting machine who used to clip bad guys is out to prove he can make the cut as a top stylist. All goes silky smooth until his cover is blown when he's recognized by a Palestinian cab driver (Rob Schneider). Now, The Zohan must fight to live a peaceful new life in New York in this razor-sharp action-packed comedy from Adam Sandler, Robert Smigel, Judd Apatow and Dennis Dugan.

Critics Consensus: You Don't Mess With the Zohan features intermittent laughs, and will please Sandler diehards, but after awhile the leaky premise wears thin.

The List

Eddie Harrison

...attempts to ring humour from topical subjects like home-made bomb-making sit uneasily with Sandler’s obvious ambitions to political gravitas, with the gags drying up in favour of an climactic mix of sentiment and action...

You Don't Mess With the Zohan is hysterical and gives Adam Sandler one of his finest comedic roles in a comedy that puts its own spin on the conflict and need for peace.

America's favourite man-child returned to his routinely mediocre and mildly misogynist formula with this 2008 "comedy".

The laughs ring hollow and the slapstick violence seems in bad taste.
