I really enjoyed the film.

I've only read the first book, and while I know most of the parts unfamiliar to me were created in the screenplay, I'm sure some of them came from the other novels. Regardless, I thought it all worked together rather well (probably since Adams co-authored the screenplay).

It did move a little fast, and a few moments of touchy, wishy-washy romance sub-plot crap bugged me. It's not that they were poorly done, but I think I've just seen enough Hollywood films, where that is an absolutley unavoidable staple for no reason whatsoever, that I'm just bored with it by now. Those are my only gripes, though.

I was laughing my rear end off throughout the entire film. There are so many hilarious parts, but I especially liked the Guide's animation of the guy purposely scalding his hands after having the cow talk dirty to him. Also, what was a nice inside joke and nod towards those who had read the book, when they were discussing the horrible forms of poetry, you see the dead man who had his brain throttled by his own organs in order to save humanity. Oh, and the yarn improbability was nothing short of pure loving genius.

Unfortunately, I forgot my 3-D glasses :(.

4.5/5
