Absolutely Anything Ratings & Reviews
- BurnharmNovember 15, 2025Absolutely Anything has an impressive lineup, including voices and appearances from Monty Python alumni, but unfortunately the film itself doesn’t quite live up to their legacy. The premise has potential, yet the humour often feels flat and the story struggles to find a consistent tone. Despite a few charming moments and the nostalgic appeal of seeing the Monty Python names attached, the overall experience is underwhelming. It’s a film you might watch out of curiosity, but not one that leaves much of an impression.
- Peter BickfordNovember 3, 2025Amiable fluff which has the singular honor of having reunited at least the voices of the surviving Monty Python crew, as well as the last performance of Robin Williams.
- Viljami VahterusNovember 1, 2025Quite simple romcom more than sci-fi. Nothing special but last work of Mr Williams so something to be watch in that sense.
- Manuel FrangisApril 15, 2025I just watched Absolutely Anything, and I give it 5 out of 5 stars. This movie is straight-up weird in the best way. It is one of those films that takes a completely ridiculous idea and just runs with it. And honestly, that is what made it so entertaining. It is random, goofy, and full of that British humor that somehow makes even the strangest stuff feel normal. I was smiling the whole time. The story follows a regular guy named Neil, played by Simon Pegg, who suddenly gets the power to do absolutely anything just by waving his hand. Why? Because a group of aliens gives him the power as part of a test to decide if humanity deserves to survive or be destroyed. Yep, that is the setup. And it somehow works. Instead of using the power to do great things, Neil does what pretty much any normal person would do — he starts using it for small stuff, dumb stuff, and selfish stuff that backfires almost immediately. Simon Pegg is perfect in this role. He plays Neil as this awkward, good-hearted mess of a guy who is just trying to figure out life. The way he reacts to suddenly having godlike powers feels weirdly relatable. He does not turn into a superhero or a genius. He just tries to make his life a little easier and ends up causing absolute chaos. Pegg’s delivery is sharp, and he brings that natural charm that makes you root for him even when he messes everything up. One of the best parts of the movie is Dennis the dog. Neil uses his powers to make his dog talk, and it is hilarious. Robin Williams voices Dennis, and he is amazing. Every single line had me laughing. It is wild, it is crude, it is sweet — and it is one of my favorite parts of the movie. Dennis has the best one-liners, and you can tell Robin Williams was having a blast in the role. It honestly made the movie feel even more special knowing this was one of his last performances. The aliens are voiced by the original Monty Python crew, and their scenes are just as silly as you would expect. They argue about what counts as a good test, they overthink everything, and they have some of the funniest lines in the entire movie. Their part of the story is ridiculous, but it fits perfectly into the offbeat vibe the movie is going for. The humor is dry and random, which I love. It is not trying to be edgy or deep. It is just having fun with a crazy concept and seeing how far it can go. The visual effects are simple but fun, and the pacing keeps things moving. The movie never drags. It is quick, quirky, and always bouncing from one wild situation to another. I give Absolutely Anything 5 out of 5 stars because it is just pure chaotic fun. It is weird in all the right ways, and sometimes that is exactly what you need. If you like Simon Pegg, talking dogs, or random powers going hilariously wrong, this one is for you. Overall Absolutely Anything is a wild ride full of charm, nonsense, and solid laughs. It is one of those hidden gems that feels completely unhinged but somehow still makes you care. I had a blast watching it.
- Andrew LepidasOctober 26, 2025Fun well cast movie to pass the time.
- Areeb AlamOctober 12, 2025Good one
- hippikApril 28, 2025Just a simple funny skid by Monty Python :) Nothing more, nothing less.
- Dave BarnesMarch 5, 2025Ok, not a hard watch
- KizSeptember 21, 2025It's a solid comedy movie, nothing ground breaking but certainly good entertainment.
- ArcYTFebruary 16, 2025Absolutely Anything starts with an interesting premise—someone granted god-like powers—but it quickly wastes the potential. The concept is so hyped, but the execution is disappointing. The powers should have led to more creative and meaningful solutions, but instead, it’s mostly filled with childish jokes that don’t lead anywhere. The characters don’t really evolve, and by the end, it feels like nothing significant has happened. Even the star-studded cast, which had a lot of promise, didn’t do much to elevate the film. Having the Monty Python cast as the aliens is the one thing that keeps the movie from being a total snoozefest, but that's only if you're a fan of Monty Python's unique brand of humor. Otherwise, it falls flat. It’s a forgettable experience, lacking depth and substance.
- joshua wayne johnsonSeptember 19, 2025Interesting movie kept me involved with it the entire time some really good jokes and fun times
- StephenSeptember 5, 2025A predictable slap-stick comedy from Terry Jones (Monty Python) but amusing enough, if you're not expecting clever witty dialogue.
- andrewfoley862August 26, 2025Peg almighty.. 🍻
- ርልዪረJanuary 26, 2025This was Terry Jones' last film before he sadly passed on, but he left us with a quite hilarious film, in which he co-wrote, directed and had a minor appearance. He also got the remaining Monty Python members to voice the aliens, which was such a fitting and brilliant way to have in your final film. Simon Pegg and Kate Beckinsdale are great as the 2 lead roles, and also, aswell as the voices of Monty Python there's the voice of the late great Robin Williams as Simon Peggs dog. While this may not be a masterpiece, like say, Life Of Brian, it is a really enjoyable and often hilarious film. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who just wants to laugh and be entertained for 85 minutes. Also, to any true Monty Python fans, this is a great chance to see(or hear) all the Python's (except Graham Chapman, of course) together in a film for the last time. I would definitely recommend it.
