Telegraph Reviews Hitchhiker Movie, Approves

LPetrazickis writes "The Telegraph has reviewed the movie adaptation of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. The review notes that the film is every bit as much a loving tribute to Douglas Adams as it is a joyous comedy. American actors acquit themselves well, and the sense of intelligent wonder transfers well to the technicolour screen. The many incarnations of The Guide are summarized at the end."

Mindless entertainment for the masses

[DmitryProletariat]

Be warned by fellow comrades,

tripe of this sort will warp your mind. It will turn you into the automatons your capitalist masters demand. It is the means whereby your individuality is sucked out through your nose and bottled up by capitalists, who then turn it into bourgeois French perfume. It is an opium. Except you don't smoke it. Or inject it. Or stick it up your nose.

The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy might seem like a million wonders, like stars speckling the night sky. It is not. It is a dangerous weapon to sap you of your humanity and dignity. When walking into the theater your first thought will be: Do I want popcorn or JuJuBes with my Coke? And upon walking out you will feel a strange desire to kiss a woman. Resist this temptation!!! Join the mass of thinking men who will avoid this capitalist propaganda and SAAAAAAVE YOURSELVES!!!!
