> The early word on the trailers is pretty poor. The only reason to hope for this at all is that Douglas Adams worked on the script before he died, so depending on how much the script may have been altered after the fact, there is at least a creative anchor in the production. The director is untried: odd that a studio would entrust beloved franchise material to someone without more credentials.

I've read a review by someone who saw a pre-release version of it. General verdict appears to be that they took all the jokes out of the script.

I can dig up the review if anyone wants.
