You Don't Mess with the Zohan!!

You Don't Mess with the Zohan, a new movie featuring Zohan, an Israeli commando, fakes his own death in order to pursue his dream: becoming a hairstylist in New York. This is the story about a Mossad agent Zohan Dvir, who fakes his death so he can re-emerge in New York City as a hair stylist. He romances his clients by giving them "special services" in the back room. However, he is eventually recognized, and risks losing his newfound life and career.
When I saw the advertisement at the first time about this movie, it has impressed me. I felt excited with the short introduction about this movie and can't wait to watch this movie. It must be a happy movie and sure will make me laugh from the beginning until the end.
I like to watch comedy. Another thing that impressed me is this movie is written by Adam Sandler (one of the writers) and he is also one of the stars in this movie. The cast is wonderful as well, starring Emmanuelle Chriqui, John Turturro, Nick Swardson, Lainie Kazan, etc.

Besides, you can also see Mariah Carey appears in the movie, as herself.

The movie begins with Zohan, a Mosad agent, on vacation at a Tel Aviv beach, attracting several women and capturing the attention of every beach-goer with his Hacky Sack prowess. He cooks fish in the nude (using copious amounts of hummus) for himself, his friend and several women. As he finishes cooking, an Israeli Defense Forces helicopter arrives, stealing him away from his presumed well-earned vacation.

During a subsequent briefing, Zohan expresses his displeasure about having his vacation cut short. After being heckled by his officer, he eventually agrees to do yet another mission of recapturing a key Palestinian terrorist, the "Phantom" (John Turturro), who had been freed by the Israeli government in exchange for a captured Mossad agent, plus an additional "to-be-named-later" spy. Later, as Zohan expresses his desire to leave Israel and become a hairdresser in New York City, his wishes are met with laughter by his mother and his father, who had fought in Israel's Six-Day War......

I think it should be one of the great and relaxing movies in this year 2008. I am sure I will go to watch it.
