Review of The Pest

The Pest (1997)
1/10
Unfunny and moronic vehicle for an irritating talentless idiot
3 July 2005
This movie is just not at all funny. It's a vehicle to showcase the dubious talents of John Leguizamo, apparently the world's most irritating and least entertaining man. Like a Latino Chris Rock but without the shyness and self effacing humility. I actually watched this having been taken in by the favourable comment then shown on this site without hitting "search for other comments". In retrospect the reason for this individual's thorough enjoyment of The Pest is obvious from the terrible grammar, missing and multiple punctuation, and towards the end of the review, CAPITAL letters appearing in the MIDDLE of sentences for NO apparent REASON. An example of the film's humour: The star does a rap in the shower over the opening credits, involving various impressions. The longest of these is The Count from Sesame Street, counting his farts which he calls "stinkie pinkies" and making mock disgusted faces. If this sounds hilarious to you, then by all means YOU must see THIS MOVIE!!!!
