"You dont mess with the Zohan"

Went to watch midnite show wif dear on Saturday nite. Was very excited when he suggested "You dont mess with the Zohan", cos i saw de trailer & oso poster for this movie. I love Adam Sandler's movies in general, so was waiting in anticipation for the movie to show~~ However, was quite disappointed after the show leh...

Basically, this show is abt "The Zohan" (Adam Sandler) who is an Israeli anti terrorist commando, who fakes his own death in order to become a hairstylist in New York.

1st part of the movie shows how powerful & skilled (in fighting) he is & there are many crude scenes of him dancing & all~ He has an arch-enemy called "Phantom" who is an ARab/Pakistan/Lebanon~ And Zohan faked his death after fighting with Phantom..

2nd part of the movie shows how he finally became a hairstylist in a Pakistan salon & the owner is actually da sista of the Phantom...

Last part is about how Zohan falls in love wif the Pakistan hair salon owner, some bad-ass big company tried to deepen the hatred btw the Israeli & the Lebanon ppl & den Zohan & Phantom bury the hatchet & work together to beat the bad-ass company lo...

It is overall quite a funny show la... but basically the funny parts is being derived from all the crude, R(A) & lame jokes~~ And the movie is like making bad jokes & references to the war btw Israel, America, Lebanon etc lo...

In conclusion, my rating for the show is like 2 stars out of 5 stars..

Below is the synopsis of the show, taken from GV webby:
