Hitch Hikers Guide.

<< < (2/3) > >>

bovaboy:
Saw the film last week and thought it was excellent. A lot of people didn't like it due to it being different from the  book, though I thought they'd done a good job of transfering it to film. People don't seem to realise the book is different to the radio broadcast, which is different to the TV series, so is unsurprisingly different from the film. I'm sure the computer game will also be different (as this is the way that these things go).
It's very english in its production and as such I'm sure it'll do badly stateside, but if you enjoyed the series then I think you'll love it (I actually didn't particulary like the tv series, but am a massive fan of all of Douglas's books).
Though watch out for the old marvin, he's in the film in the background but I personally thought that the new Marvin in particular was perfect, almost exactly how I imagined him to be.
If you like the hitchhikers guide in any of it's forms then give it a watch, I think you'll like it, go give it a watch I say, I was glad I did.

thermidorthelobster:
Having read some reviews, I'm not going to bother seeing it!

beast5680:
reviewers arent always right though i will go and see it out of curiousity as i enjoyed the series when it first came out

wing nut:
i thought it was an enjoyable tribute to the origional ,with some good cameo rolls from the likes of the origional arthur dent and marvin.. well watchable !!!!!!

strapping young lad:
ive never read the book nor watched the original series

but from what i can see the reviewers are comparing it to the original

which isnt clever

we are in a different era of sorts now

if they made hikers now instead of the 80's it wouldnt be as good

nostalgia goes a long way i think
