What a great movie... NOT!

It's kino. What really brought this all together for me was the 90s "'tude" that everyone and their mom used to sell shit that people like. It wasn't quite so "edgy" (90s edgy, not 4chan edgy) or pretentious in The Pest's case, as it was a Hollywood that wasn't afraid to make something original (ill-conceived or otherwise) on a gamble. And as a result I had more fun watching this lowbrow 90s comedy than I did watching almost any comedy released in the past ten years. Why?

The last movie like this I watched that I remember going to see in the theater was that Monster Trucks movie Nickelodeon put out. What a fun ride that was, it was corny as fuck but it didn't treat its audience like retards and neither does The Pest. The Pest is a movie that does not try to be anything more than what it is. It is nothing short of absurd that John Legwarmerzano as Disguisey McJuicenstein would be involved with the Scottish mafia and be the most dangerous game for an indiscriminately involved in the plot Nazi. And it is fucking gold as a result. What a great movie.
