Huh?

This movie-while having decent acting, cinematography and a few cool "creatures"- had a storyline that made no sense to me. The main theme of it seemed to be summed up in a line that was repeated frequently throughout the storytelling - "I don't know". Nothing was explained or seemed to have any point. Was it an alien movie? Was it something else? I don't know. I somehow made it through the movie, but only because I was expecting something to happen that would give it some kind of sense/ explanation - even if extremely far fetched or fantastic- only to be left with that phrase repeating in my head...I consider myself fairly smart, but I just didn't get this one. While visually interesting, this movie really is NOT worth a watch.

The third of the Hitch-Hikers Guide books, which starts with Ford Prefect and Arthur Dent still stuck on a prehistoric Earth.

It's not long, however, before they are back in 'our' time, roped into an attempt to save the Universe for destruction by an army of robots made by an alien race. Of course, they fail spectacularly in all their attempts to stop the robots gathering the items they need to release their masters, who were imprisoned inside a 'Slo-Time envelope' following a long and protracted war aeons ago.

To be honest, I found this book to be rather surreal. Despite a few good moments, it was never really laugh-out-loud funny, ending in a blatant attempt for a sequel (which, to be fair, I probably will read at some stage).
