I'm an avid Hitchhiker and Douglas Adams fan, so I've got an admitted bias here. But I came away from this movie entertained and happy, so that's gotta count for something. Yes, the story did have to get folded in a few spots, and cut around, and put back together again, but it was in the name of making the movie a coherent viewing experience. The book and the television series always had a certain feeling of "Okay. We're going to do this now.", and the movie manages to at least give some stronger direction to it all. And there was some EXCELLENT towel usage, I must say. I'd have liked more Mos Def/Ford and more of The Guide itself (nice animations!), and the Humma Kavula thing was a bit... unresolved at the end. But hey. Save that for the sequel and/or the DVD extras? Overall, 4/5 stars. If you haven't read the books? Don't Panic (lol) and go see it anyway. I took friends that hadn't read them, or seen the series, and they enjoyed it, too.
