the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy

For those of you who have never read the book, you must know the following:
The planet we now live on, Earth 2, is a reproduction of Earth 1, down to the last person. Earth 1, unfortunately, was recently destroyed by Vogons to make way for an intergalactic bypass. It so happens that the first Earth was actually a giant supercomputer designed by Deep Thought (another supersmart computer, which had, over the course of seven and a half million years, calculated that the answer to life, the universe and everything was 42. Thus the real problem was: what is the question? This was too complicated even for Deep Thought, so it designed Earth. The scientists who had built Deep Thought were on Earth, experimenting on the humans. They were what we commonly know as mice.) ... but it was destroyed by the Vogons 10 minutes before completion. So at the planet-building factory, they made what is now our home.
The movie impressively depicts the strangeness of the book, sticking faithfully to its atheism and infinite improbability.
We are treated to the visually spectacular factory planet, the priceless spaceship Heart of Gold, Slartibartfast, and other fun stuff.
Ford Prefect is played by an African-American, and Marvin the robot's head is huge; no problems, just not how I imagined it.
Loads of ridiculous fun, and more the a little...off.
