1 | * AlternateAesopInterpretation: While the movie's finale is listed under SpaceWhaleAesop on the main page, it could just as easily be interpreted to mean "Ancient hatreds should be left behind when moving to a new place for a new start." |
2 | * CriticalDissonance: While critical reception was divisive at best though not heavily panned, it was a box-office hit. |
3 | * SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: |
4 | ** Although he believes Zohan's desire to become a hair stylist is ridiculous, Oori nevertheless refuses to let his hero work in an electronics shop, and instead encourages him to pursue his dream. This solidifies his and Zohan's friendship. |
5 | ** [[spoiler: The film's climax, when a three thousand-year-old ethnic hatred is conquered... at least in America]]. |
6 | ** "Congratulations. Now, cut my hair." This came from ''Zohan's parents.'' |
7 | * HilariousInHindsight: A court ruled a store cannot be named "Going Out of Business" sometime after the movie came out. |
8 | * MexicansLoveSpeedyGonzales: This film is more than likely to get quite a few laughs from Israelis, if only for the [[ShallowParody grossly inaccurate parody]] of ''anything'' Israeli-related. |
9 | * MisBlamed: Despite many critics accusing Sandler of ripping off ''Film/{{Borat}}'' with his portrayal of Zohan, WordOfGod is that Zohan's personality (and even much of his background) is pretty much directly taken from one of Sandler's former hair stylists. |
10 | * SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome: "Yes. My feet uppercut!" |
11 | * NauseaFuel: Watching this movie may turn you off hummus. |
12 | * QuestionableCasting: Sure, a lot of people don't like Music/{{Dave Matthews|Band}}, but it hardly seems fair to make him a white supremacist. |
13 | * TearJerker: Zohan crying in bed after his parents make fun of his desire to become a hair-stylist. |
14 | * TrailerJokeDecay: Zohan kicking the shit out of the guy. "Smell it, smell it, smell it. Now take it. That's for you." |
