My opinion
Give me a really big dick!
[Falls over] Ouch! Not “THAT” big! Obviously! Return to your old size!
Let me have a dick that women find exciting!
Yeah, that’s better. Could I have it white?
What to expect from a comedy with lots of famous comedians ? They managed to persuade the full Monty Python crew to do the voices of aliens that form a kind of intergalactic council. The fact that Terry Jones sat in the producer's seat also helped, I guess. Simon Pegg plays the leading role as Neil. And you can hear the late Robin Williams in one of his latest achievements as the hyperkinetic dog Dennis. Joanna Lumley and Rob Riggle were assigned respectively the most restrictive and the most annoying part. And finally Kate "Stonehearst Asylum" Beckinsale plays the part of the beautiful neighbor who's adored by Neil. What the hell can go wrong with such cast?
In many ways this film can be compared with "Bruce Almighty". Although the latter was superior in all areas. Even though I've seen "Bruce Almighty" so many times, I can't resist watching it again everytime I come across it while surfing the television channels. I'm afraid I'd skip "Absolutely anything" when I do. Just like Bruce, Neil got God-like powers at some point. So whatever he wishes, he can make possible just with a simple hand movement. However, this time it's not God who took care of that, but some belligerent space creatures from another galaxy. They plucked the Voyager, with an instruction tablet on it how to reach us, out of space. Initially earth would be destroyed. Eventually, this destruction is deferred and the humans are given the chance to prove that they are a superior race. And yes, our good friend Neil is the chosen one.
