The Pest (1997)
7/10
Unique and goofy, Check it out if you like John Leguizamo

It's true that "The Pest" is not the most amazing piece of cinematography ever made, but if you go in with the right attitude, it's a funny little movie. I love John Leguizamo, so perhaps I'm a little biased...but I definitely think this movie is worth watching. It can be a little offensive if you are the type of person who doesn't like ethnic jokes. But I feel that the Pest's ethnic jokes are more of a statement than simply tasteless humor; numerous ethnic groups are "targeted" and their stereotypes made fun of. In this way, the ridiculousness of discrimination and segregation is illuminated. And you can laugh at it, which is even better!
