Welcome to Thunderdome

Netflix

Another movie I watched because Simon Pegg was in it, and again I was somewhat disappointed.

He's given godlike powers, for reasons.... and it's... probably supposed to be hilarious, but isn't.

I don't know. It isn't brilliant. At all.

There's a surprise cameo and I hope this isn't the last thing he did.

Aliens are judging whether or not the Earth is worthy of existing so they give Simon Pegg the power of a god. Kate Beckinsale, looking as lovely as ever, plays the love interest. Robin Williams does the voice of Pegg's dog.

It's cute, not great. Seems like a family movie aside from a dick joke and the dog always talking about shagging.

Meh. If you saw it you wouldn't hate yourself, but you're not missing anything if you skip it.

Is it anything like this movie?

I really sucked at searching before posting this weekend.

Also, I wouldn't consider Williams' role a cameo. He never appears on camera and he voices the dog most of the movie.
