Trailer: You Don’t Mess With the Zohan

Here are some clips and the trailer for the new Adam Sandler comedy You Don’t Mess With the Zohan:

It is a suprisingly funny film – despite the fact that, like a lot of Sandler comedies, it descends into third act slapstick madness.

Some of the social/political humour was actually quite ballsy, think Munich crossed with Happy Gilmore and you’ll get some idea of way this film mines the Arab-Israeli conflict for humour.

Despite some predictable lapses into ‘why can’t we all get along’ territory, I found myself laughing at some of the gleefully nonsensical elements.

Sandler’s comedies don’t always do that well outside the US, but perhaps this one might buck the trend.

You Don’t Mess With The Zohan opens in the UK on August 15th and is out now in the US

One reply on “Trailer: You Don’t Mess With the Zohan”

Adam Sandler is classic, though he tends to do better when he doesn’t stray from his main expertise, which is casual, unassuming comedy
