Arthur Dent and Ford Prefect escape from the Earth moments before its destruction and join forces with Zaphod Beeblebrox on board the Heart of Gold and search for the ultimate question.
Arthur Dent -nimisellä maan asukkaalla (Martin Freeman) on todella huono päivä. Kaikki alkaa siitä, kun puskutraktorit ovat ajamassa hänen talonsa nurin. Sitten Arthurille selviää, että paras kaveri on avaruusolento – eikä tässä vielä kaikki. Koko maapallo tullaan räjäyttämään, koska tarvitaan tilaa hypergalaktiselle ohitustielle. Arthurin ainoa keino selviytyä on liftata ohiajavaan avaruusalukseen.
Uskomaton seikkailu alkaa maailmanlopusta, eikä sillä matkalla mikään ole sitä, miltä näyttää. Arthur saa tietää, että elämän tarkoitus on luku 42 - ja oppii, että vastaus kaikkeen löytyy sähköisestä kirjasta Linnunradan käsikirja liftareille...
Linnunradan käsikirja liftareille perustuu Douglas Adamsin samannimiseen kulttiklassikkoon. Adams itse on ollut mukana kirjoittamassa elokuvan käsikirjoitusta. Loistavan käsikirjoituksen, ohjauksen ja näyttelijäkaartin lisäksi elokuva tarjoaa uskomattomia tehosteita, jollaisia ei ole ennen nähty. Elokuva nousi USA:ssa katsojatilastojen kärkeen ja on ollut valtava menestys kaikkialla! (DVDPLAZA)
One man is rescued from the destruction of the Earth.
The adaptation seems to miss the point most of the time, leaving out jokes (or worse, just leaving out the punchlines) and replacing them with Hollywood cliches. So, it's not anywhere near as funny as it should be. And between squeezing three hours of material into a movie, and forcing a half-assed love story into it on top of that, it doesn't have much chance. But it's still pretty fun. One thing it keeps intact is the sense of wonder; between the amazing special effects and Adams' ridiculously huge ideas (which the mediocre script doesn't quite squish in spite of itself), it can be pretty impressive - for the right audience. I can only imagine it would be a confusing mess to someone who hasn't read the book, or (like me) listened to the original radio drama a million times.

The Book: It's an important and popular fact that things are not always what they seem. For instance, on the planet Earth, Man had always assumed that he was the most intelligent species occupying the planet, instead of the *third* most intelligent. The second most intelligent creatures were of course dolphins who, curiously enough, had long known of the impending destruction of the planet earth. They had made many attempts to alert mankind to the danger, but most of their communications were misinterpreted as amusing attempts to punch footballs or whistle for titbits. So they eventually decided they would leave earth by their own means. The last ever dolphin message was misinterpreted as a surprisingly sophisticated attempt to do a double backward somersault through a hoop while whistling the star-spangled banner, but in fact the message was this: So long and thanks for all the fish.

The Book: In the beginning the universe was created. This made a lot of people angry and has widely been considered as a bad move.
The Book: What to do if you find yourself stuck with no hope of rescue: Consider yourself lucky that life has been good to you so far. Alternatively, if life hasn't been good to you so far, which given your present circumstances seems more likely, consider yourself lucky that it won't be troubling you much longer.
The Book: The Encyclopedia Galactica, in its chapter on Love states that it is far too complicated to define. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy has this to say on the subject of love: Avoid, if at all possible.
Lunkwill: Do you...
Deep Thought: Have an answer for you? Yes. But you're not going to like it.
Fook: Please tell us. We must know!
Deep Thought: Okay. The answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything is... 42.
Arthur: It must be Thursday. I never could get the hang of Thursdays.
