Favorable Hitchhiker's Guide Review:

Everyone concerned with the film has been careful to honour Adams's intentions - though some inspired guesswork has been necessary. At the time of his death, Adams had moved from his north London home to California to write a feature film script for The Hitchhiker's Guide. He saw a film as the culmination of various incarnations of the work, but he had struggled mightily to write a workable script.

"Douglas always wanted there to be a movie," says Robbie Stamp, his friend, business partner and the film's executive producer. "He believed a movie should be taking its place in the canon of his works - the radio, the TV, the books."
