Apparently box office hit in the US on it's first weekend.

thermidorthelobster:
I get fed up with American film companies (they are usually the most guilty) taking a good story and making it into a crap film.  Sometimes they really have no idea;  in the worst examples they totally distort history (Braveheart, U-571).  Therefore I voice my displeasure by boycotting them.  (I'm sure they're gutted.)

With HHGTTG, the reviews I read said they'd taken out (a) the funny bits, and (b) the bits which make it a coherent story.  Examples were cited.  So why should I waste my cash going to see a film if the film-makers aren't capable of making a decent job of it?  </grump>

Of course, without seeing the film, I can't ultimately judge, but the signs are not good from what I've read!


--- Quote from: "Planet Magrathea Review" ---The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy movie is bad. Really bad. You just won't believe how vastly, staggeringly, jaw-droppingly bad it is.
