After a couple of lackluster departures from the silly kind of comedy that Adam Sandler is famous for, he was back on track in "Zohan".  There's no heavy emotional drama, no smart social commentary or anything, just good old dirty jokes and silliness.  It's not believable in any way shape or form and isn't meant to be. It's got a wee bit of "lets all get along" sentiment, but just touches on it, not at all heavy handed with it.   It's the kind of thing you just give your brain the night off and laugh along.  It's very funny in the way you expect Adam Sandler to be funny.  It's a bit dirtier than some of his earlier work, a lot of sex and nudity type humor, but it suits his juvenile giggles generating style.  If you liked "The WaterBoy", you'll like "Zohan".
