In trying to conclude whether mankind is worthy of the advancements they can bestow, an eccentric klatch of space aliens decide to make a test case out of miserable schoolteacher Neil (Simon Pegg) and grant him the power to make his every desire--no matter how absurd--a reality. Whether Neil can pass their test, though, is a separate issue! Riotous fantasy farce directed and co-scripted by Terry Jones co-stars Kate Beckinsale, Rob Riggle, Eddie Izzard; with voice work from John Cleese, Michael Palin, Eric Idle, Terry Gilliam, and (in his last performance) Robin Williams. 85 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.
