Far worse than what I was expecting and my expectations were not that high to begin with. Don't waste your time.

A terrible, terrible movie not funny one bit. Got this one thinking it would be really funny but I was wrong. It was a waste of time and was so stupid. Didn't laugh even once during this entire movie

Eddie Murphy can pull off being a foreigner better than Adam, and that isn't saying much. I could have done better playing the part of Zohan and I don't act. This was Adam Sandler's worst ever, seriously his worst. Instead of vulger humor, Adam, stick with drama. Your much better at it and we don't walk away wanting to vomit popcorn. Expand

Oh my ... Such a bad, bad movie. The comedy misses so often and the accents are ridulously hard to listen to for 10 minutes, let alone 90. Reign Over Me was funnier.

A film whose potential was never reached. I laughed a few times, but at a certain point you wish he would have spent more time on the script and mined the material for all it was worth.

This was the worst movie i have ever seen by Adam Sandler. I expected much more from him. If it wasn't for the fact the i bought the tickets, i would have walked out within 30 minutes!

The worst Sandler film yet. Simply awful. The humor was either just plain unfunny, or else penis jokes. I don't see why Sandler would do this.

Ouch. I like comedies and was expecting an intentionally idiotic farce, but left the theater disappointed. It was simply unfunny, poorly made, and difficult to watch. None of the characters were interesting and the fake accents were painful. Ouch. I like comedies and was expecting an intentionally idiotic farce, but left the theater disappointed.

I give this movie a 1 instead of a 0 out of pity, and perhaps to subliminally justify paying to watch it. To quote a far better Adam Sandler movie, "Everyone in this room is dumber for having [seen] it." Expand

I'd rather rip out my spinal-cord and go ropeskipping on the nearest highway than to have to give this movie a higher rating than zero.

The humour is I'd rather rip out my spinal-cord and go ropeskipping on the nearest highway than to have to give this movie a higher rating than zero. I watched this movie shaking more and more with anger after every 'joke'. The humour is unfunny, does not adress a problem and does not seem to serve any other function than to remind you that there are enough people with low enough IQ and understanding of world politics on the planet to make this film profitable. The one thing that does amaze me is that people actually spent time making this film. Adam Sandler has my respect to gather enough braindead bigots to actually get this film into theatre. Expand

This movie isn't even funny. I think Adam Sandler likes old women or something... I couldn't even finish this movie. Please don't see this movies unless you want to laugh at other cultures, and old people getting it on.

This rates with Plan 9 from Outer Space. The only difference being that Plan 9 has gained a degree of cult status. Don't Mess is the worst movte I have seen, They really shouldn't have messed!

The only thing I have learned from this movie is that trailers may not give an accurate perspective of the movies plot line. The movie was ONLY sex jokes, with few minor legitimately funny jokes. The racial jokes were neither funny, nor appropriate at this current time and age, where those concepts are still rather numb from recent events including 9/11. These jokes should NOT be made yet. Then there's all the sex jokes. Our society generally frowns on people who do actually make these jokes in everyday life and now they're putting these jokes in movies?! What is that?! How is this movie PG-13. This is easily an R rated film. No one can say that Rent, Miss Congeniality, or any other PG -13 movies for sexual content are on parr with this disgusting film. There was no way to tell on any level that the jokes would exist from any trailers, movie pictures, etc. Our society doesn't need futile, dirt movies. Our society needs inspiring movies, legitimately funny movies, and even stupid movies, but this? This is lower than dirt. It is not worth your money or your time. Adam Sandler is an idiot for presenting this film to us like we're idiots that love such grotesque concepts. In no way is this appropriate for 13 yr olds, all the way to 18 yr olds. (preferably no audience) Save yourself from the mistake I made by seeing this movie and don't waste time or money on this worthless piece of junk. Expand

Adam Sandler's worst. He had good intentions, and he paved a road to hell. What was Roger Ebert thinking? Terrible film. Adam Sandler stopped attempting comedy years ago.

Sure, you can get a few chuckles out of the movie, but 90% of the film was Arab stereotyping and Adam Sandler having sex with older women.

Never before have I walked out of a movie. I had to leave the theater after about 30 minutes, it was terrible. The [lack of] acting, the [lack of] plot, the [lack of] humor. I wouldn't watch this if someone payed me too.

I will never understand the appeal of Adam Sandler. This movie is so stupid and rarely funny. It's insulting, done in very poor taste. A waste of time. The cameo appearances by various stars helps, but nothing can save this mess.

A bunch of really bad jokes. Some fun actionscenes, but not enough to save this lame movie. A lowpoint for Adam Sandler. **** old women is maybe a fetish for some, but not fun in a comedy.

I don't even remember the plot of this movie, that's how forgettable it is, there could've been potential but you know your typical Adam Sandler, there seems to be potential...but nothing ever pulls through.

I can mess with any Zohan who manages to screw up my review. As Adam Sandler's career begins to get worse, movies like these are the message to say goodbye to the good old Sandler and the bad new Sandler.

You Don't Mess With The Zohan

It seems pointless similar to Adam Sandler's installments but this one is barely funny let along containing a script.
