Last night we (the Athenaeum Club) popped out to watch The Hitchhiker’s Guide to The Galaxy.

Not a bad movie, but not a great movie, either. Maybe 6½ out of 10. The editing was a bit odd, and the story disjointed. Performances were generally good though, and the special effects were splendid.

I doubt it will make my DVD collection unless/until it reaches about £6.99, or comes out with a great deal of additional scenes added back in.

Or both.

Both would be better.

I would happily pay to see the Slartibartfast and Marvin road movie, should they decide to make one. They should.

For me I engaged more when it shifted away from the ingrained TV/radio series.

I actually cried at Marvin and awwwwed at the mice and thought Slartibartfast as Bill Nighy ( I mean Bill Nighy as SBF) was perfect and I thought SBF was irreplaceable.
It left me wanting dinner at the restaurant ATEOTU and I was willing the film not to stop although I knew it would.

When the original theme musci came on I nearly cried with pathos and thrill at seeing it there on the big screen.
