The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Product Description

Here's the absolutely hysterical, wonderfully wild, cosmic adventure comedy THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY. Based on Douglas Adams' worldwide best-selling novel, and starring an outrageous intergalactic cast, this is one ride you don't want to miss. Seconds before Earth is destroyed to make way for a new hyperspace express route, mild-mannered Arthur Dent is whisked into space by his best friend (an alien posing as an out-of-work actor). And so the misadventures begin as he and fellow travelers, including the cool but dim-witted President of the Galaxy, the Earth girl Trillian, and Marvin the paranoid android, search for answers to the mystery of Life, the Universe, and Everything.

Customer Reviews

“She is skinny. She is pretty. And she is lying.”

Arthur Dent (Martin Freeman) loses his house due to a bypass that went through his property as bypasses are supposed to do. The plans were on record. Looks like the planet Earth is also in the way of a galactic bypass. Due to this situation and Arthur’s association with an alien, Ford Prefect (Mos Def) finds himself a hitchhiker of the galaxy and in need of a guidebook. Meanwhile, the plot thickens as we all search together for the meaning of everything. Zooey Deschanel as Trillian, a girl with wanderlust, is another advantage to this version of the story. She plays the hinge point to the story very well. Moreover, Trillian is a good shot with the Intent gun. This movie is a lot of fun and pretty much follows the story by Douglas Adams, who also wrote the screenplay. A few technological and technical adjustments were made due to this being a new era and a different medium. One example is replacing the digital watch with an up-to-date cell phone. The story had to have a beginning, middle, and end. I only viewed the Blu-ray version of this production. This version has a couple of voice-over commentaries that add value in reviewing the film, knowing the intent of the production.
