There is plenty here written on the movie so I'll refrain and simply give my entertainment opinions. Very little. If you are a fan of this subject since you were young, then don't miss this opportunity to complete your circle of HGTTG media. If you are a big sci-fi fan wanting to see a film billed as sci-fi, then pass this one by. It took me three sessions to get through the film...it put me to sleep. Obviously, its a film for those who know the characters from the novel and want to see the characters put to life on the big screen. There was a funny part but it was so quick that I don't even remember what it was. The best part of the film for me was the dolphins singing the introductory title in a typical Broadway fashion of "music over the top". Definitely a "fans" movie and not for general entertainment in this viewer's opinion. Children should find it thrilling with the strange alien characters regardless of the plot as it plays somewhat like a Disney film only with less motion and plot. I give it a five only because there are many more worse films more deserving of 1's, 2's, 3's, or 4's.
