BBCnews is carrying the first (that I've seen anyway) review of the upcoming Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Their verdict: definitely doesn't suck, probably could've been better.
Of course, one review does not a hit or bomb make. I'll wait for the rest of my normal reviewers (both professional and friend) before I figure out whether or not I need to find a babysitter, wait for the DVD, or pass completely.
Slashdot linked an unfavorable review (spoiler-filled, although he has a shorter non-spoiler version available) from the proprietor of a fan website sometime last week (here). The tone of the review made me want to like the movie just to spite the guy.
