Zwyczajny z pozoru nauczyciel gimnazjum Neil Clarke odkrywa w sobie magiczne moce. Może brzmi to trochę nieprawdopodobnie, ale to szczera prawda: wystarczy, że Neil ruszy małym palcem, a wszystko co sobie wymyśli staje się faktem. W ten właśnie sposób może sprawić, że gdzieś w czarnej dziurze zniknie banda rozwrzeszczanych bachorów z jego klasy, albo że jego kumpel z brzydkiego nudziarza zmieni się w obiekt kobiecych westchnień na wzór niejakiego Greya o wielu twarzach. Skromny dotąd i niepozorny Neil Clarke wkrótce przekona się, że magiczne moce to nie żarty i trzeba bardzo ostrożnie się nimi bawić. (Monolith)

The idea itself is not that original, but the way it is presented is great. Simon Pegg is a great comedian and he shows it to the full here. He was given a great story, and he utilized it to the best of his ability. Kate Beckinsale once again impressed me, and the special effects were also well done. A beautifully banal film that I had a great time with.

A great original idea, a great Simon Pegg and a beautiful Kate Beckinsale. 85 minutes of entertainment that will fly by before the rainbow falls from the sky. Ideas abound, gags are not spared and you find yourself wondering what you would have wanted. Great. 80%.

I guess I was expecting a bigger, raunchier, filthier and more fucked up comedy from Simon Pegg. This is kind of a love story wrapped in the idea of "what if I had the ability to change anything I want", but for the kind of material it is, they didn't do a great job and I believe they could have got a lot more out of it. For one viewing it is still a quite bearable and fine light flick with some good moments ("Let me have a penis that women find exciting! … Yeah, it's good, yeah. Could I have it white?”), but I can imagine a more entertaining result.
