First, let me just say that I'm not big Adam Sandler fan. I do think that his comedy with a touch of moral at the end is silly. But then, I'm sure that if I asked him, he would agree.
You don't mess with the Zohan is a nice, light comedy that you should watch when you are a bit tired and don't feel like thinking too much. Also, you will need English subtitles because the actors fake a pretty good Arabic accent. Watching without subtitles, I didn't get some jokes.
The story is not new at all. A very good Israeli agent wants to be "hhhhair stylist" and make everyone "silky smooth". When he tells his parents, they have a good laugh and their reaction makes Zohan cry his eyes out and then create a diversion so he could run to the US. In the US, he goes straight to his idol, Paul Mitchell to ask for a job, but the idol is not available. He ends up working in small saloon, and you are not sure if he becomes so popular because he makes everyone " silky smooth" or because he sleeps with his lady clients. He fells for his boss, a beautiful Palestinian that is actually his life long enemy's sister. Guess how the movie ends? All the matters are solved and everyone is happy. Who could have suspected such a twist?
What I loved? "Nononononononono" I keep using this in my conversation now. See the movie and tell me if it doesn't stick to you.
