The rest of my family is off doing important things elsewhere, so I'm taking advantage of the solitude to re-watch a few things.
The first is the 2005 version of "The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy" (which I am informed in the IMDB's Trivia section is the 9th version of the story). I remember not being knocked out by the movie when it first came out, but in the time since at least a couple of its stars have gone on to bigger things. (Martin Freeman as Arthur Dent has morphed into Bilbo Baggins in "The Hobbit" , and Zooey Deschanel as Trillian has become a big hit on American TV in "New Girl.") So I figured I'd give it another shot. I'm still not knocked out by it. Reading Douglas Adams made me literally LOL and this doesn't. Can't quite figure out why. Posting this because I know there are a number of Douglas Adams fans here, and I wonder what you thought of this movie. Did it work for you? If so, why/why not?
