A good adaptation of one of my favorite books, I wish they did more of it.
Excellently twisted take on the comedy scifi genre
After the movie that came out a few years ago this adaptation of the BBC radio drama is awesome if you are a fan of the books.
Does more justice to the story with backing from a TV network than the major Hollywood blockbuster/flop that came years later.
Gonna be honest, thought this was the one from the 2000s. I’m sure this was still a great and fun watch.
Please don’t let this be a movie representation of an amazing book
Great introduction to Adam's quirky universe for me that hadn't heard the radio serial or (yet) read the books.
A witty and intelligent sci fi for any hoppy frood.
A very sophisticated and cheeky bit of absurdist humor. A very faithful adaptation of Douglas Adams’ first two books. Intelligent and witty
The production values were too prohibitive for me enjoying this. The charm of the writing is there, but it’s simply too stagey.
