your quote of the day.

[phosfate]

Let me be blunt: “You Don’t Mess With the Zohan” is the finest post-Zionist action-hairdressing sex comedy I have ever seen.
--A.O. Scott, movie reviewer, in The New York Times.

This reminds me of when somebody referred to Shakes the Clown as "The Citizen Kane of alcoholic clown movies."

I so don't want to see this movie, but that is one funny review and amazingly, rather positive.

Honestly, I'd rather see Shakes the Clown.

You probably can. Much to my shame, part of me wants to see Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo

Thank God I was only drinking water and not soda when I read this. :-)

Roger Ebert:

"I found myself enjoying it a surprising amount of the time, even though I was thoroughly ashamed of myself."

and

"No thinking adult should get within a mile of this film. I must not have been thinking. For my sins, I laughed. Sorry. I'll try to do better next time."

See, that just makes me want to watch the movie.

I will have to wait for the cable release.

I will not pay to watch any Adam Sandler movie in the theater because I either like it a lot [not love, just like a lot] or hatey-hate-HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE it.

I still have to finish Reign over me, for instance, because I like it, but I got interrupted, and haven't gone back yet.

la_smartie points out this is Adam Sandler's 2nd movie where he trots out teh ghey stereotypes. And all since he got married, she says. Curious.

I'm not terribly familiar with his work, but I find it hard to believe that it's only the 2nd. Perhaps there are golden nuggets to be found in his SNL work.

Well, nuggets, anyway.

I actually liked The Wedding Singer, once upon a time. I think the Zohan trailer at MW*C killed 85% of my will to live.

I'm still boggled that someone demanded to watch it.

That was the "where I come from, DVDs never cost 10 dollars!" lady. ;___;

I wonder how her brain tumor's doing.

I saw the trailer for this thing. Twice. (To be fair, it's because I went to see Iron Man twice, but still.) It was marginally better than the trailer for the new Mike Meyer movie.
