The guy who played Zeke


He is by far the worst part of this movie, his character is supposed to be cool and well developed with pretty good one liners. But he is such a bitch, it was hard for me to get passed it.

Yeah, I don't mean to generalize or anything, but I think he had a lot of aggression from being so short, and he over compensated with the karate and acting tough. That crazy little munchkin!

Oh thank god I'm not alone. Guys like that need to be taken out back and beat just to remind them they are not tough nor cool. You don't have to act like you want to fight me to express dominance over a group setting dumb-dumb. Use your brain, because a "screenwriter" would have a expansive vocabulary and some pretty good ideas on how to beat down someone verbally.

I'm a big dude and I don't go around acting like a bad ass unless it is necessary. And when it is, it is usually because of little guys like him who think are tougher than they are.

Napoleon complex, in all of his catagories of life.

My gay friend cracked me up while I was mocking Zeke with his can do attitude.

"Who told him it was okay to wear leather pants and a chain wallet to breakfast". "I'm gay and we can get away with anything in fashion and I wouldn't dare do that".

After that I could never look at Zeke without suppressing a laugh.

I totally agree. Zeke was the WORST part of the movie. I know he was supposed to be a tough little Jewish kid with zero charm but it's kind of hard to separate the part from the actor.

And was it just me or did he seem kinda gay? So did Jonathan. Skinny with washboard abs... living on Christopher Street... these are supposed to be ladykillers???? Now THAT's acting...

I can't understand why Mia - who is beautiful - would even consider talking with that guy Zeke. I really did not like him. I am glad to see this is the only movie he's been in. He's probably some guy who knows the director and got his one chance. YOU BLEW IT, Zeek.
