Absolutely Anything movie review

Directed by Monty Python comedian Terry Jones, Absolutely Anything is a harmless comedy which critics say is fun but could have been pushed much further with stars such as Simon Pegg.

It's day 274 of Operation Piccolo, with doofus copper Chris (Daniel Rigby) no closer to bringing down the Sarkissian crime family from within. But the attempted assassination of patriarch Ara suddenly sows suspicion throughout the entire clan, endangering his flimsy cover. With the end of the first series looming, there's a distinct sense of escalation, with Rigby's go-for-broke performance - with echoes of Simon Pegg at his most endearingly panicky - helping punch up nods to movie classics Reservoir Dogs and Miller's Crossing.

Man Up - Review

While Lake Bell is every bit as good as Julia Roberts, Simon Pegg is not at his best here.

Man Up review

It may be formulaic in places but Simon Pegg and producer Nira Park know how to spin a sparkling cinematic garment from the well worn material, and at 88 minutes it's the perfect length for its story.

Man Up review

Simon Pegg never seems at ease in this manic and outdated tale of a blind date gone wrong.
