It doesn’t live up to the original radio-plays. Bill Nighy revived the 2nd half.

Synopsis: Mere seconds before the Earth is to be demolished by an alien construction crew, journeyman Arthur Dent is swept off the planet by his friend Ford Prefect, a researcher penning a new edition of “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.”

p.s. This trailer is brilliant, I hadn’t seen it before! Go Stephen Fry!

:::::NOTES::::

I have recently listened to the complete radio-plays including the final unofficial audio book and watched the entire original series. To say I had high expectations for this film was an understatement. I really didn’t deliver. I’m sure if I had come to this film with no prior knowledge I may have enjoyed it more. I felt that so much was missed, rushed or Americanized that it was a solid 2, until Bill Nighy turned up! He was just great and brought the rating up substantially.

Bond takes it Old-Skool – I loved it!

Synopsis: Bond’s loyalty to M is tested as her past comes back to haunt her. As MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how personal the cost.

p.s. I watched this in IMAX – So Epic!

A very fun and heartwarming story. Makes me want to visit India again.

Synopsis; British retirees travel to India to take up residence in what they believe is a newly restored hotel. Less luxurious than its advertisements, the Marigold Hotel nevertheless slowly begins to charm in unexpected ways.
