I AM messing with the Zohan – Swair, it sounds better ;p
I had doubts whether KNCC will show this movie in local theaters but now it's confirmed... NO WAY IN HELL!
I like Adam Sandler don't get me wrong but this movie although "funny", needs to be stashed away and never played any where.. I seriously don't understand how they had Arab cast in that movie!!? Sarcasm 3al Arabs, religion, our food!! our values.. the way we dress "or what they think on that" !!
The Arabic profanity throughout the movie!! AHH, it's intolerable!!! ALSO, it's not a good movie to watch with the presence of parents ya3ny ......
No matter what the message behind this movie is, I didn't really enjoy it
P.S: Who uses Hummus to extinguish fire?!! or as toothpaste!!
I hate hate hate how they portray Israelis as peace seekers while Arabs are retarded terrorists?!
And is there an Arabic man named "Fattoush" !?! LOOL !!

The movie makes fun of Israelis also, the whole point is extreme stereotyping of all.
August 9th, 2008 at
regardless that.. it’s exaggerated. I never thought you’d like this movie!
August 9th, 2008 at
It is old school fun, they do not make such movie anymore. I bet Egypt will make a movie like it, but with roles reversed ;p

Many comedians in the USA are from jewish ancestors like adam sandlar and ben steller and the recent one Borat although he is British

I think it may have been one of those movies he “had” to do. (i.e. was under contract for it before it was done).
It pokes fun at isreali’s only not as much as “the arabs”
August 9th, 2008 at
I know!! thats exactly how i felt when i watched it.. it’s rude humor.. watever happened to old comedy acts, they made fun of no one and still they were hilarious.. unfortunately nowadays all comedic acts/comedians everywhere make fun of things/people/religions to make us laugh, akbar daleel el shows that air on ramadan, ma5alaw shay matma95raw 3aleeh, even our culture o traditions etma95raw 3aleeha.

well there is a Family in lebanon called Fattoush btw LOL
Adam Sandler needs new scripts seriously!
I prefer Ben Stiller to be honest!
August 9th, 2008 at
the whole point of the movie was to exaggerate how everyone stereotypes everyone else. that’s sandler’s style, satire is his specialty including the crude humor.
there isn’t a single movie that sandler acted in which didn’t have any of his trademark f’ed up humor.
haven’t seen the movie yet though.
August 9th, 2008 at
Since when do we watch adam sandler’s movie’s for the moral messages.. i haven’t watched this movie yet.. but sandler is not as funny as he used to be
August 9th, 2008 at
The title should be “I’m Messing With The Zohan” lol
August 9th, 2008 at
It was funny I for one don’t care about messages or stereotypes if the shit is funny it’s funny and that chick was hot :P
August 9th, 2008 at
Aw, chika, I’m kinda disappointed you’d even watch that kinda movie. American Jew making a hollywood movie about arabs/israelis … it can only spell disaster!
August 10th, 2008 at
Mariah is in it. I will like it.
August 10th, 2008 at
this movie sucks
i laughed at the beginning
but after then i realized how silly it is
August 10th, 2008 at
lol. I think it was just taking the extreme to everything. I personally didn’t like it all that much. I usually am not a fan of Adam’s work..Execpt I that movie umm I prounce you chuck and larry. Loved that one!
August 10th, 2008 at
I don’t find Adam Sandler funny at all. Now Bernie Mac, he was hilarious. Too bad he died though :(
August 10th, 2008 at
I hate comedies, they’re so unrealistic. I can’t stand them but I might watch them out of curiosity only
August 10th, 2008 at
Bernie was a hoot! poor thing :/
August 10th, 2008 at
it’s retarded!
August 11th, 2008 at
My friend’s fiance is called Fattoush LOL!
August 11th, 2008 at
o_O !!
August 11th, 2008 at
It’s a COMEDY for (whoever-you-want)’s sake! Chill!
August 12th, 2008 at
You know you are so right! I hate how they make fun of us Arabs. They’re only happy they have an excuse now to steam their world anger on. And Jews are always peaceful angels!!> Um has anyone seen Palestine lately!? Come on you guys whois the terrorist?
Oh yeah Adam Sandler.. Not so funny. He keeps repeating himself in all his movies just like Jim Carry. And yeah him and Ben Stiller are Jews (But I’m not 100% sure) and who cares ;)
Thanks Chikapappi for the great points. It’s my first time here and I loved it.
August 12th, 2008 at
:) thanks dear
August 12th, 2008 at
lool i kind of love the movie , its funny but i hated the message
August 12th, 2008 at
oh and sandler is jewish just incase u dont know
August 12th, 2008 at
really?!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I didn’t know!
August 12th, 2008 at
I watched the movie! It makes fun of Israeli’s and Arab.
It was funny as hell! It’s a must Chika! And yeah I’m sure they won’t bring it on screen because it has a lot of sexual humor!
August 13th, 2008 at
I’m kind of disappointed after seeing ‘You don’t mess with the Zohan’. Not because of it’s content or anything, it’s just not as good as his old movies.
Being an arab myself, some parts WERE funny!
Unfortunatly, I saw this with my parents in the states. Although, we were laughing more than locals were xD But my dad didn’t approve of the content, lol.
August 17th, 2008 at
Late comment, but I loved the movie. And the hummous thing, it was on the jews not arabs. They love hummous too. I think the jews were actually hit harder in this movie than arabs.

Chika allah ysam7ech 7aragtey some parts of the movie.
Honestly I found it funny that a guy in the movie was named fattoush. Also, I need to see the part of the fire and hummus. Man, I know you hated the movie bas for some reason you really made me want to watch this movie. Maybe because it’s really funny that the movie tries its best to make fun of Arabs and it just pisses Arabs off instead of making them laugh.
Sorry if I made you more angry than you already are, but it’s just a movie.
