Infestation arrived without much fanfare and built its audience the hard way — through word of mouth. Infestation does what great comedies rarely manage — it is actually funny, consistently, across the whole run.

The chemistry Christopher Rodriguez Marquette and Brooke Nevin bring to it does a lot of the heavy lifting. It was released in 2009. What keeps Infestation from feeling disposable is a cast that clearly understands the material better than the format usually demands. It knows exactly what it is, and does not try to be anything else.

If you need a comedy that actually makes you laugh, Infestation is a strong candidate. It rewards viewers regardless of what else is in their watch history. It is a manageable watch, easy to fit into a single evening. Christopher Rodriguez Marquette's comic timing carries it through its weaker moments.
