This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Miami scam artist Pest Vargas is on the run from the Scottish mob and a German headhunter.The mob are after the 50,000 dollars he owes, and the German after his head.The first ten minutes of this movie are the most xenophobic, politically incorrect things I've seen in nineties cinema, and it goes downhill from there.I have no idea what Leguizamo was thinking when he made this movie, and it's an even more sobering thought that he helped to create the movie also.It must have something to do with the direction, but it's Leguizamos pet, and it should have been put down during the initial pitch.Imagine Hard Target played for laughs, but without any funny scenes, or action, and you have this movie.All the cast are pretty bas, and i'm sure there is something in this movie that will offend everyone.when a film has a character called Malaria, you know something is wrong.

I received this as a Christmas present. I thought this movie was incredibly hilarious. It reminded me a lot of a story I read in high school called 'The Most Dangerous Game'John Leguizamo is wacky and crazy through the entire film. Leguizamo plays a sneaky, but lovable con-artist named Pestario Vargas, but everyone calls him 'Pest' He is tricked into being hunted down on a private Island by a racist German named Gustav. If Pest survives for 24 hours, Gustav will give him $50,000. When Pest escapes the Island, Gustav and his homosexual son continue to hunt him down in the city. Pest uses many disguises in order to stay alive, If you love silly zany comedies, you'll love THE PEST!!!

This was the worst movie I have ever seen. I have to admit I didn't watch it from beginning to end as cleaning the toilet was more entertaining.The 'star' was the most unpleasant character I've ever seen, neither funny nor attractive, in fact, creepy and obnoxious are far too complimentary.It is painful to watch, there is no acting, especially not from the star who behaves as a doped up mentally deficient take off on one of those loud mouthed black actors.As horrible as it is to watch one of those can't shut up black actors, watching a Puerto Rican one is even worse. The name of the movie is descriptive, he is the pest. This movie is a must miss.

although i'm sure many people say this movie is dumb or ridiculous, i think it is an awesome movie and despite the 5th grade kind of humor, it's hilarious. i mean if you can't just enjoy it and have to judge it like that then don't watch it. but i've loved this movie for a long time and there are just so many parts that make me laugh really hard. maybe you have to be a true fan to appreciate it, because i've seen it many times since about 1999 and every time i still love it. it may be different if you just randomly see it one day. john leeguizamo may be immature in it, but he is ridiculously funny and random which makes me love it. well anyways, don't diss the pest cause it rocks!!
