BBC News, 28th October 2015Absolutely Anything review
Plot points are abandoned regularly as the story takes turns that are nonsensical, and throughout there's a sense that Terry Jones and co-writer Gavin Scott didn't know where to go once the main premise is established.
James Luxford, Radio Times, 14th August 2015Absolutely Anything review
Terry Jones could have done absolutely anything with this high-concept set-up but chose to go down the romantic comedy route. Which would be fine if the jokes were better, but they aren't. The result is a loosely knitted together series of vignettes, some of which raise titters, but the majority of which elicit groans.

Simon Pegg and Kate Beckinsale head up an awful sci-fi comedy from Terry Jones.
The List, 12th August 2015Absolutely 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.
Manchester Evening News, 11th August 2015Film Review: 'Absolutely Anything'
It's devastating to think how far Terry Jones has fallen in the four decades since Holy Grail, in which he got more laughs banging a few coconuts together than he musters from his entire movie.
Peter Debruge, Variety, 11th August 2015Radio Times review
How do you add to what has already been said, shown and written about Charlie Chaplin? Terry Jones concludes here that Chaplin was a "genius" who "took physical comedy to new heights" - not bold claims. He laughs at clips from the great silent films, tries to imitate the Tramp's walk and in several sequences simply stands on the streets of south London reading aloud from a paperback of Chaplin's autobiography. It all feels a little undercooked, but some of the archive footage, for instance of Chaplin revisiting Lambeth in the 1960s, strikes a chord.
