The Plot of "Absolutely Anything"

"Absolutely Anything" follows the story of Neil Clarke, a struggling teacher who is given unlimited power by a group of aliens as a test. The aliens have debated whether to destroy Earth or make humanity a member of the council, and Neil's use of his power will determine their fate. If he uses it for evil within ten days, Earth will be destroyed.

Neil is initially unaware of his new abilities, and accidentally causes an alien spaceship to destroy a classroom of students he dislikes. When he realizes the extent of his power, he begins to use it for his own personal gain, and even grants his dog the ability to speak. However, when things start to spiral out of control, Neil decides to use his power to solve the world's problems.

The movie is a hilarious and thought-provoking exploration of power, responsibility, and the consequences of our actions. With an all-star cast, including Simon Pegg, Kate Beckinsale, and the voices of Monty Python members, "Absolutely Anything" is a must-watch for fans of comedy and science fiction.

The Production of "Absolutely Anything"

"Absolutely Anything" was directed by Terry Jones, who also co-wrote the movie with Gavin Scott. Jones is best known as a member of Monty Python, and the movie features the voices of several other members, including John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, and Michael Palin. The movie was also the first to feature all living Monty Python members since "Monty Python's The Meaning of Life" in 1983, and the first without Graham Chapman, who passed away in 1989.

The movie was filmed in London, and principal photography and production began on March 24, 2014, and ended on May 12 of the same year. While the movie received mixed reviews from critics, it was praised for its humor and the performances of the cast.

"Absolutely Anything" was also notable for being the final movie directed, written by, and starring Terry Jones, who passed away in 2020. It was also the final movie to star Robin Williams in the main cast, released a year after his death in 2014. Despite its flaws, the movie remains a charming and entertaining tribute to the comedic talents of Terry Jones and the Monty Python crew.

Cast of "Absolutely Anything"

Simon Pegg plays Neil Clarke, a struggling teacher who is given unlimited power by a group of aliens. Pegg is known for his roles in the "Cornetto Trilogy" movies, including "Shaun of the Dead," "Hot Fuzz," and "The World's End."

Kate Beckinsale plays Catherine West, Neil's neighbor and love interest. Beckinsale is best known for her role in the "Underworld" series of movies, as well as "Pearl Harbor" and "Van Helsing."

Sanjeev Bhaskar plays Ray, Neil's best friend. Bhaskar is a well-known British comedian and actor, and is best known for his role in the BBC comedy series "Goodness Gracious Me."

Rob Riggle plays Grant, Catherine's ex-boyfriend and a Colonel in the military. Riggle is a former Marine who became a comedian and actor, and has appeared in movies like "The Hangover," "21 Jump Street," and "Step Brothers."

Joanna Lumley plays Fenella, a member of the alien council who observes Neil's use of his powers. Lumley is best known for her role as Patsy Stone in the British comedy series "Absolutely Fabulous."

Is "Absolutely Anything" Worth Your Time?

"Absolutely Anything" is a fun and entertaining movie that explores the age-old question of what would happen if someone had unlimited power. The premise is intriguing, and the cast is talented, with Simon Pegg and Kate Beckinsale delivering solid performances. The inclusion of the voices of Monty Python members adds to the movie's charm and humor.

However, the movie falls short in some aspects. The plot can be predictable at times, and some of the humor misses the mark. The movie's message about the dangers of power and responsibility is nothing new, but it's still relevant and thought-provoking.

Overall, "Absolutely Anything" is a decent movie that's worth watching if you're a fan of science fiction comedy or Monty Python. While it might not be the best movie in its genre, it's still an enjoyable experience that will leave you with a smile on your face. So, grab some popcorn and give it a try!
