2005’s film adaptation of Douglas Adams’ The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy was a mediocre flick. Even though it starred my beloved Martin Freeman (from the original UK version of The Office,) the only thing that made it worthwhile was Mos Def in the role of Ford Prefect. Maybe I was slow on the upstart, but I wasn’t aware of Mos Def’s stellar comedic abilities, and I was pleasantly surprised. So on a recent trip to the movies I was pretty excited to see that not only is Michel Gondry (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Science of Sleep) coming out with a new movie, but the unlikely duo of Mos Def & Jack Black are starring in it. With Mia Farrow, Danny Glover, and Paul Dinello (of cult favorite Strangers With Candy fame) this is definitely worth checking out.
