This is Pop!: Review roundup: “Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy”
If Peter Jackson’s “Lord of the Rings” trilogy proved that mythology-heavy, intricate fantasy can be successfully translated on screen, “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” ignores such attempts at fidelity. Though Adams (who died in 2001 while working on the screenplay) shares a writing credit with Karey Kirkpatrick, this version of “Hitchhiker,” is less a twin to his five cult novels (or the original BBC radio series) than a second cousin. A very entertaining, slightly batty second cousin.
