Zohan vs. Borat: Adam Sandler Applies His Cultural Learnings to New Movie

If you're one of the few people in the world who thought Borat was great, except that it didn't have enough Adam Sandler in it, your prayers have finally been answered. In his new movie You Don't Mess with the Zohan, Sandler plays a legendary Israeli commando who decides to switch careers and pursue his dream of being a hairdresser in New York. But even after faking his death, changing his appearance, and assuming a new identity, he still looks a little familiar somehow, doesn't he?

    Geez did you have to use the groin visuals? Looks to me like "hirsutism" should've been another category for comparison.
