Warning: Content may contain spoilers.

You Don't Mess With The Zohan is an action comedy movie about an Israeli commando who went to New York to pursue his dream as a hairstylist. Life was easy at first but as he meets new and old enemies, things weren't the same as before. However, the enemies learned the one thing: you don't mess with the Zohan.

It's starred by Adam Sandler who acted exceptionally well as the Zohan, especially with his amusing Middle Eastern accent. Not forgetting his Middle Eastern look too. Throughout the movie he was always shaking his big 'thing' and boasting about his big 'bush'.

Overall the movie was funny and hilarious. You have to admit that Adam Sandler is an excellent actor.

Reminder: If you haven't watched You Don't Mess With The Zohan and you don't want to spoil your movie outing, read no further. Feel free to read the other posts.

The movie started with Zohan Dvir (Adam Sandler) enjoying himself at a beach while attracting beach girls with his funky moves. Not long after that, the military soldiers escorted him back and assigned him a mission to capture a notorious Palestinian terrorist, the Phantom (John Turturro).

During the mission, Zohan faked his own death so that he can pursue his dream of becoming a hairstylist at New York. Once in New York, top salons rejected him and he ended up working in small salon of a Palestinian woman, Dhalia (Emmanuelle Chriqui), which he eventually fell for.

Besides cutting hair for elder women, he gave them an after-cut treatment too: the 'banging' session. His reputation became well-known as Dhalia's salon gained more customers; most of them were old aunties. Zohan banged almost every aunty after every haircut. He's certainly The Man!

But after that, Zohan has an unexplainable erectile disfunction and realizes that his lil 'big brother' only 'stands' with Dhalia's presence. Aww... Too bad for the aunties.

Later on, Zohan was identified by a Palestinian taxi driver Salim (Rob Schneider) and he contacted the Phantom. Upon hearing the news that Zohan is still alive, the Phantom visited New York to get rid of Zohan once again. But, Zohan and the Phantom worked together to fight against Walbridge (Michael Buffer), a corporate tycoon who has been trying to force out the local tenants around the salon's area so that he can build a huge mall there.

In the end, Zohan and Dhalia opened a beauty parlour and the Phantom also fulfilled his dream of running a shoe shop.

Oh yeah, pop diva Mariah Carey appeared in the movie too!

Noobie Rating: 7/10

You definitely don't wanna mess with the Zohan but you should watch it!
