20 November 2016:

I just saw the movie; "Keeping Up with the Joneses". Does anyone know if sexy and cute Israeli actress, Gal Gadot {Fast & Furious, Wonder Woman} is her character, Natalie Jones an Israeli agent?

I am wondering because nearly two thirds into the film, she speaks one line in Hebrew and it is confirmed by actor Jon Hamm player her spy husband. It was mentioned earlier in the film about her accent. So is playing an Israeli agent or an American agent that speaks Hebrew?

I speak basic Hebrew {Ivrit} and although she tells him to "stop acting like a P---y" the last word really translates into the word "Nekevah" means "female". So it is not a vulgar as it sounds.

Isla Fisher has a body that I like on women, but Gal Gadot is smaller, but very sexy in any role she plays, her face, her eyes and the way she moves.

Good question... I wondered that too. I guess it's left for the audience to decide.

Note that she speaks two lines in Hebrew: the first was a moment before the house was destroyed, but it was too fast for me to get the meaning. The second was "Tafsik lihiot kaze nekeva".

The Hebrew word "nekeva" indeed means female literally, but the figurative meaning of the whole sentence is "stop acting like a wimp" rather than "p**sy".

The first line was something about him taking a conversation over Hookah smoking way too seriously (don't remember the sentence word for word).
