Well yes and no.. The problem is that Douglas Adams (DNA) told the story several times.. as a radio series.. as a book.. as a tv series.. as a beachtowel.., as a comic, as sequals to the radio series and books. And as DNA himself said each one flatly contradicts the previous telling. The visual look is different in the movie to the TV series (and the radio version) and the characterisations are different but I think it worked.

I was really unsure if i wanted to see the movie, but it is a good film and different to anything else i've seen lately. I've just read a couple of reviews and it seems to have taken a hammering by some critics.. but I'd recomend it (for what my recomendation is worth)

I've read all the books, I have old tapes of the radio version somewhere, a VHS copy of the shows somewhere...even played the old Infocom text adventure game :)

I *will* be seeing this movie and I've also heard that it's very good :)
