You Don't Mess With Zohan

This isn’t the typical design we would evaluate here, but it is still a very interesting one. To evaluate the script design of a movie is very much out of the box. The movie “You Don’t Mess With the Zohan” is a very difficult movie to evaluate. Its beginning is very interesting because it discusses the Arab-Israeli relationship. The problem is that comedy is added to this movie, which makes it kind of useless. Either it should have been a comedy movie discussing a different context, or a very serious movie/documentary about the relationship between the Arabs and Israelis. We have to question our self if it is the right thing to compare the Arab-Israeli relationship in a comedy movie or not, if we have decided this, we can talk about the quality of design of the script of a movie; I personally think that a very serious issue shouldn’t be discussed in such a comedy movie.
