Absolutely Anything
Directed by Terry Jones6.020%37%5.9
Läraren Neil Clarke upptäcker plötsligt att han har magiska krafter. Bara med en gest kan han få precis vad som helst att hända. Han kan trolla bort en särskilt besvärlig skolklass – bara för att sedan få dem att återvända till livet igen, vilket han också kan få vilken död person som helst att göra. Han kan även förvandla sin bäste vän till exakt en sådan man som alla kvinnor vill ha mer än något annat i hela världen. Enda haken är att han måste se till att använda rätt ord, och att veta vad det är han egentligen vill. Misstag efter misstag leder honom till den ultimata och mest kniviga frågan som så många före honom har fruktat och haft svårt att besvara – ska han välja flickan eller hunden?

Absolutely Anything Ratings & Reviews
- DonkeyFlix21 mars 2026If I had the power to do absolutely anything… I would erase my memory of watching this.
- Manuel Frangis15 april 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.
- hippik28 april 2025Just a simple funny skid by Monty Python :) Nothing more, nothing less.
- James White Jr.9 mars 2026It is ok. It's a less obnoxious version of Click. Doesn't over stay it's welcome, but you are not missing anything if you skipped it.
- Dave Barnes5 mars 2025Ok, not a hard watch
- kyledevcu15 februari 2026Seen a couple clips and thought it could have been interesting, it was not. Be ready for the same joke where he wishes for something over and over again just to unwish it because it went wrong. The plot is just stupid, am alien gives him powers that can and does end up destroying them to test if humans are ready to join them. he literally immediately tells everyone he has powers, even the antagonist which guess what? It goes bad. So much talent wasted. Do. Not. Watch.
- Burnharm15 november 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.
- ArcYT16 februari 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.
- Peter Bickford3 november 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 Vahterus1 november 2025Quite simple romcom more than sci-fi. Nothing special but last work of Mr Williams so something to be watch in that sense.
- Areeb Alam12 oktober 2025Good one
- Kiz21 september 2025It's a solid comedy movie, nothing ground breaking but certainly good entertainment.
- joshua wayne johnson19 september 2025Interesting movie kept me involved with it the entire time some really good jokes and fun times
- Stephen5 september 2025A predictable slap-stick comedy from Terry Jones (Monty Python) but amusing enough, if you're not expecting clever witty dialogue.
