On Thanksgiving day for the first time i watch Meet the Zohan at a family members house. I had never seen the previews but i did see the poster on bus stops and stuff. Just by seeing the posters i imagined the movie to be good enough to go see it at the theatres but i just never went. Before i actually watched the movie i pictured the movie to be about a funny foreigner because most of Adam Sandlers movies that are played by him are funny and there is always a foreigner in the movie. So i ended up watching the movie while i was watching it i could not believe how they came up with a movie about the Israelis and Arabs and their conflicts since no one really talks about it.
I guess no one talks about it because its almost like if it is sacred to them or something like that. I felt the producers were trying to aim this movie to the exact people they make fun off in the movie. I would not know why would they aim it at them since the topic is really controversial. Talking about controversial it actually had a few news topics and articles about it. Now i look at as the media was just trying to make a bigger commotion out of it so they can get more viewers to watch the movie and make more popular then it is already.
