the sole reason for someone wanting to see this film would be because of john leguizamo . i remember the preview and and it look to be another second rate comedy . but the fact that mr. leguizamo star and try to redeem it . his name and how known it be at the time or not and try to sell it . i be pretty disappointed with the performance of leguizamo . his day on house of buggin ( an in living colour clone ) and be his tip top . there be a fine line between wackiness and idiocy and and we will just say that leguizamo cross it tenfold . he look like he be try to be too outrageous and crazy for the camera . a a matter of fact and i will say that he try too hard . madcap humor spill over into stupidity and and the film be spoil . i can not say i blame him and if you be give this opportunity and you would try a hard if you could and right . your eagerness cost you dearly though mr. leguizamo . the pest follow in the tradition of any comedy film and and play the race card and and more . no group be leave out from be poke fun at . black and latino and white and jew and korean and german and homosexual and and the blind be among those single out . again here and thing get too overboard and and too much try to get spoof in too little time . the resolution of the film take all of five minute to clear up and move back to normality . when you have a film and and youre go to bypass plot and reality for comedy sake and just make sure it funny and or all you have be 90 minute of senseless film . which would sum up leguizamo pest quite nicely .
