Product reviews...
Zohan is rude, crude and loving it.
He is a counter terrorist for the Israeli army but finds himself longing for a new life. He fakes his death and moves to America where he follows his dream of being a hair stylist. There isn't a huge amount of story in this movie, Zohan has lots of sex, finds girl of dreams, stops having sex because he wants girl of dreams, past comes back to haunt him. It isn't anything special when it comes to movies but good for just having a 'don't want to watch anything that requires thinking' movie night.
This is the type of movie you would expect from Adam Sandler so this is within expectations for one of his films, Rob Schiedner and friends cameos included (I do really like that though, seeing his friends cameo in all his movies). There is a lot of sexual innuendo jokes provided in this movie, and most just have you laughing at how awfully bad the jokes really are. For me this is a movie to watch when I feel like watching something but don't want to involve any brain power.
Brain power not required = good enough movie, brain power required = just watch the once.
