i saw it sunday and my take on it is that it was OK - i didn't love it, i didn't hate it. it wasn't as good as i'd hoped, but wasn't as bad as i feared. i think there were bits of genius - the intro with the dolphins and the "So Long and Thanks for All the Fish" song, the Magrathea factory floor, the guide animations and voice... Still, it just seemed to me that the movie was missing something. as others have said, i also thought the lack of explanation about ford's towel fetish was misguided, and i think that the whole Deep Thought bit was too rushed.
i enjoyed the flick, but not as much as i'd hoped. i think it may be the kind of movie that you might appreciate more with each viewing, so i'd like to see it again.
i'd probably give it a 6.5 out of 10.
