Synopsis

Don't leave Earth without it

Mere seconds before the Earth is to be demolished by an alien construction crew, Arthur Dent is swept off the planet by his friend Ford Prefect, a researcher penning a new edition of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy."

  • Review by Silent J ★★★★ 17

    Today is my 18th birthday. I'm supposed to be spending this weekend working on two essays for college, one of which has to be four pages long. Instead, I decided to procrastinate by watching Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

    I regret nothing.

  • Review by matt lynch ★★★★ 1

    I'm not sure this material (beloved by me, I must admit) is improved by being streamlined into a more conventional chase narrative, but such are the demands of a big sci-fi studio picture, and as things go it's been done rather successfully. Besides, it's been through plenty of other permutations (radio, TV, etc), this is just one of them. More important is that Adams' tone and sense of humor has been absolutely faithfully translated. It's also perfectly cast and features some wonderful production design and practical effects. My preferred GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY. It's a real shame they didn't make more of these.
