You Don't Mess with the Zohan
Lather. Rinse. Save the world.
You expect me to believe it gets *this* big?
An Israeli commando fakes his own death to follow his dream of becoming a famous hair stylist in New York. When he fails to land his dream job, he reluctantly accepts a position at a Palistinian-run salon. His natural talent soon emerges, and he becomes their star stylist and a favourite with the ladies. However, a Palestinian spy recognises him, and reports him to his arch-enemy, a notorious Palestinian terrorist, who makes plans to kill him. Between all of this, they have to deal with a property developer trying to exploit tensions between the Jews and Palestinians for his own commercial gain.
