   Absolutely Anemic.
   
   Even fans of Simon Pegg, Robin Williams or the Pythons will have a hard time finding something to love here. The script is a depressing checklist of opportunities wasted. The things one could do with the Absolutely Anything power? You can probably come up with more interesting ideas than anything you'll actually see on screen.
   
   I was cautiously hoping for an interesting sci-fi take on the Bruce Almighty concept, and the cast indicated strong comedic potential.
   As it turns out, the general feeling is zero interest and effort from pretty much anyone involved. Typecasting to the point where you can just look at nearly any cast member and tell what their character will be like, and how they'll interact with each other, even without knowing the plot or story. At least Eddie Izzard was enjoyable in his sadly minimal role.
   
   The whole premise of the movie basically self-terminates when

   the aliens mention the billions of species they have met and tested like the humans, and none passed the test. NONE. The aliens basically destroy everyone they come across.

   That's a really nice message.

   The irony of the dog taking care of them is even worse.

   
   
   A few laughs and a cool idea or two is not enough. Re-watch Bruce Almighty instead.

   A very meh movie. I didn't know Williams was in the movie, especially as this movie came out a year after he killed himself so it was extra freaky. 8 years 4 months ago

   Where this film badly goes wrong is that the guy has all these problems with Ms. Beckinsale but mysteriously tries to solve them "manually" rather than just fixing them with his powers. 5 months ago
