Movie-You Don't Mess With the Zohan

What a stupid movie. The trailer looked pretty good, but the movie itself was a piece of crap.

The thing is, it didn't need to be. You Don't Mess With the Zohan (2007) had a decent movie lurking around in it somewhere. But it got lost in bad editing (the movie was WAAY too long) and no one to put the brakes on star Adam Sandler (who co-wrote this) and tell him, "no, that is not funny."

There were several subplots that could have just gone away and the movie would have been much better off for it. Like him having sex with all those elderly women...it wasn't funny...not even gross funny. It would have saved 20 minutes or so, and kept the movie from becoming weak and senseless.

There were a few humorous spots, but good editing would have made these more pronounced. But as the movie got more painful to watch, even the funny scenes became a mere distraction from the mental anguish.

And I can't believe Roger Ebert liked this movie! So disappointed in him.
