Absolutely Anything

"Absolutely Anything," directed by Terry Jones, is a unique blend of science fiction and comedy, featuring Simon Pegg as Neil Clarke, a disillusioned teacher granted the power to do anything by a group of aliens. The film’s premise offers a whimsical exploration of human desires and the absurdity of life. Pegg’s charming performance anchors the film, portraying a relatable protagonist who grapples with the moral implications of his newfound abilities.

The film’s humor is often hit-or-miss, relying heavily on British comedic sensibilities, with the voice talents of the late Robin Williams as Neil’s talking dog adding a delightful touch. While the plot meanders and occasionally feels disjointed, it provides moments of genuine hilarity and thought-provoking themes about choice and consequence.

Visually, the film captures a playful aesthetic, though some special effects appear dated. Overall, "Absolutely Anything" is an ambitious, if uneven, romp that will entertain fans of Pegg and absurdist comedy, though it may not resonate with all viewers.

fuck no

If I could thumb it down more than once I would.

I really liked the concept of this, and it should’ve been something I liked. But the execution was a little wonky on some parts. A lot of aspects surrounding consent made me uncomfortable.

A VERY fun movie!!! 7/10!!!

7/10.
