Leave your thoughts about The Pest.
| House Next DoorSimon AbramsIt pains me to admit just how obnoxious The Pest is because it has all the ingredients of the kind of guilty pleasure I love. |
| AV ClubKeith PhippsIt seems to be targeted at eight-year-old boys with attention-deficit disorder, and could have been more competently made by any one of them. |
| Boston PhoenixMark BazerThis movie defies review. To critique it would be like writing about a restaurant that only serves birdseed. Of course, humans don't like birdseed -- it's not meant for our species. |
| New York TimesStephen HoldenWhen Mr. Leguizamo isn't doing third-rate ethnic parody, he is wallowing in scatological jokes that are so poorly prepared and executed that they make similar antics by Mr. Carrey play like classic routines. |
| Film ScoutsLeslie RigoulotThere is not a socioeconomic, political, ethnic or gender group that is left unoffended. |
| VarietyJoe LeydonPic exists solely to showcase Leguizamo's wild and crazy antics, which are very much an acquired taste. |
| Deseret News (Salt Lake City)Jeff ViceQuick, someone find a no-pest strip - or even a fly swatter or a good bug spray. |
| CinematterMadeleine WilliamsA revoltingly bad stinker that is easily in the running for the worst film of the decade. |
| ReelViewsJames Berardinelli[The film] occasionally had me convulsed with laughter. |
| User ReviewJoe MThis is a horrible movie and one I quote nearly day. Itâ(TM)s bad, so bad, that I can recite nearly half of the movie and I have the public school gypsy curse. âStuttering dyslexia.â? |
