Bruce Almighty

Bruce Almighty is a 2003 comedy film starring Jim Carrey as a man temporarily granted God's powers.

The title plays on "almighty God," substituting the character's name Bruce.

By extension, someone acting like they have divine authority or unlimited power might be called a Bruce Almighty: He's walking around like he's Bruce Almighty.
