THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY.

the name alone is enough to strike a chord with the nerds of the world.

if you have read the book, and are expecting an exact translation of the book to film, this is not the movie for you.

i thought it was pretty awesome.

what, you were expecting more in the way of a review?

okay, my only complaints are:

1. the bulldozer scene. way too short :(
2. "What's so bad about being drunk?" "You ask a glass of water." is nowhere to be found.

all-in-all, though, it was an enjoyable experience, leaving the way open for a sequel. [shakes fist] SEEEEEEEQUELLLLL

...er. it wasn't as confusing as i've heard in some reviews (they possibly might not have liked the guide entries being a main plot device. well, those are awesome. forget those guys.) and all the changes worked well. plus zaphod was actually pretty funny.

so, in closing, you'd better check out this movie.

seriously.

just do it for me.
