The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Movie Review by Matthew  (5/3/2005) |

I have never read the book.
Because of this, I will be unable to tell you if the film does justice to the book. I can tell you the screenplay was written by Douglas Adams before he died. It is probably as close to the vision of the writer as a fan could hope.

Before I became initiated into "Star Wars", I watched this film. I don't really have much to say either way about it.
I thought the acting was decent, the plot was pretty original and the humor was sarcastic, which is just the way I like it.
