Sex & Nudity

Moderate
32 of 81 found this moderate
Frequent references to Zohan's "bush" (pubic hair).
Zohan catches multiple items with his butt cheeks.
There is implied sex multiple times in the back of the beauty salon to where shampoo bottles would fall off the wall. Frequent humping motions. Also, shampoo squirting on women's faces.
There is a part when you see Zohan and Michael's mom having sex but you see them thrusting and an object is covering the explicit stuff.

Violence & Gore

Mild
23 of 28 found this mild
Zohan frequently jumps off rooftops without getting hurt. At one point, he stops bullets with his bare hands and nostrils.
Zohan stabs scissors into his thigh to show he feels no pain.
A man's hand is chopped off in a flashback but with no blood at all, done in a comedic way. The hand crawls away and grabs a knife to stab the interrogator.
Lots and lots of Kung-Fu type action
Some explosions and gunplay (no one is killed by guns)

Profanity

Moderate
19 of 34 found this moderate
Shit, fuck, bastard, bitch, crap, ass are used alongside a myriad of sexually charged comments about men and women.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

Mild
18 of 30 found this mild
Alcohol and tobacco use. A special drink charges Zohan's powers as well, but it is left ambiguous as to the contents of the drink.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

None
25 of 32 found this to have none
People with PTSD regarding war may be affected. There are soldiers, grenades, war footage, fighting, explosions, etc.
A main theme of the movie is that its about an Israeli Agent who fakes his death, and wants to get out of the military due to all of the fighting between Palestine and Israel, which may cause some controversy due to its realistic nature.
