Green Wing and Free Agents star Stephen Mangan is to play the lead role in BBC4's adaptation of the late Douglas Adams Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency.
Mangan will be joined by Darren Boyd as his sidekick Richard MacDuff and Cold Feet and Friends actor Helen Baxendale, as MacDuff's girlfriend Susan.
Adapted by the Bafta-winning writer Howard Overman – who is also behind Misfits, Vexed and Merlin – Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency follows the exploits of Adams's chaotic character as he uses his unusual methods to solve crimes.
Mangan said: "I've been a fan of Douglas Adams ever since the Hitchhiker's radio series which I used to record as a child and listen to over and over again in my bedroom. It's such a thrill to now be playing one of his brilliant characters.
"Dirk is a chaotic, anarchic force of nature with a totally unique take on the world. He is described as 'lazy, untidy, dismissive and unreliable'. I've absolutely no idea why they thought I'd be right for the role."
The Dirk Gently books have formed the basis of a play and a BBC Radio 4 series but have never before been filmed for TV.
Adams's agent, Ed Victor, said: "For all the years I represented the late, great Douglas Adams, the most substantial frustration for both of us was that we couldn't get films made either of Hitchhiker or Dirk.
"Douglas once said, memorably, that 'getting a film made in Hollywood was like trying to cook a steak by having a bunch of people come into the room and breathe on it'. Well, we did eventually get a film made in Hollywood of Hitchhiker and, tragically, Douglas didn't live to see it. Nor will he see this adaptation of Dirk – but it's worth bearing in mind that Douglas always thought Dirk would make a better film than Hitchhiker and I feel sure that this new TV drama with a terrific script by Howard Overman will prove his point."
Shooting begins this week in Bristol on the 60-minute drama, which is being made by ITV Studios in association with the Welded Tandem Picture Company.
The Dirk Gently production is to be directed by Damon Thomas – who also directed BBC4 drama The First Men in the Moon – and will air early next year.
当小h片看了，女主真神奇，长得像莉莉柯林斯+碧梨艾莉什
不为爱情倾尽所有的女孩，不因为爱情迷失自己的女孩最棒。
卖拷贝老三样——彭、啪、砰砰砰！文戏从一开始就全线崩塌，杰克吉伦哈尔都救不回来。人物塑造无力吐槽，一开始以为是群像，后面又像双雄，后三十分钟彻底放弃治疗。亮点可能只在运镜和大场面调度上了，但感觉这方面槽点也不少，还看到穿帮镜头，老吉的AR上那忽有忽无的全息瞄给我整蒙了，搞不懂迈导怎么能沦落至此……
哈哈哈哈哈怎么才这么点分啊，本玛丽苏爱好者觉得还行啊哈哈哈哈哈
en……纯爱电影也不能出现侮辱智商的剧情！
作为青春爱情电影还是挺不错的，该有的要素都有了，养眼的男女主，色彩丰富的画面，爱情之间的推拉与反应，讲了一个挺完整的故事，表现形式也青春大胆，值得四颗星，缺憾是其实男女主到底是怎么互相喜欢上的没有阐述得很好，优点是女主真的有股自然而然的傲气，明明放在日剧里非常尴尬出糗的情节，到女主身上就完全不会有这种感觉，这点还挺神奇的，哪怕被甩都感觉没有任何自卑感，只是单纯伤心对方不值得，而且也会大方承认自己是傻瓜，就还挺直率的哈哈哈！
杂糅
本片在动作戏上的最大特色是用穿越机拍摄，也就是高速无人机，由19岁的世界穿越机冠军操控，手法非常了得，给观众带来了与众不同的新奇视效。如果不是预先知道影片有穿越机参与拍摄，很多新奇的拍摄视角和镜头会让人以为是CG特效的结晶。
看完后觉得晋江文学真的高级多了，这真的学生时代玛丽苏剧情啊…
在新技术设备日新月异的当下，爆炸贝试图尝试新的拍摄形式，但是其一如既往对于电影长度与节奏的失控，特别是缺乏扎实故事的前提下，超过两个小时的快速剪辑和无休止的追逐都是让人头痛的大问题。
西班牙电影真的都是帅哥美女啊，无比养眼。而且一个个都是能文能武，说脱就全裸、不脱的时候文戏也很自然，就冲这些也该5星。至于剧情就没那么重要了，就爱看这种高颜值、演技在线的纯爱片。
依旧是各种炸的爆炸贝，不同的是有了无人机的加持，加入了一些更炫的镜头，但这些镜头操控感太强，太standout，对影片服务性不强。高强度持续刺激的追车和枪战让人审美疲劳，但比较喜欢的是对反派Danny的刻画，杰克·吉伦哈尔的表演以及和Will的兄弟情。Danny的疯狂中夹杂着兄弟情深，让他的人格分裂出一丝美感。最强的是片尾，重伤的黑人倒在地上无人问津，白人说：忘了他。一群白人黑人冷漠围观，这时只有一个有色人种说“No”，然后将黑人搀起。这种无声的讽刺真的是第一次在卖拷贝的片子里看到。
以为是青春片，结果上高速。以为是19🈲️，结果男主的片段也只有个屁股蛋。以为是辛德瑞拉，但扭捏做作加跟踪这种桥段让人下头。（看的英文配音，和国语不一样哎，英配好自然像原音）
卖拷贝终于又回归了一次严肃题材，虽然是改编丹麦同名电影，但是运镜、场面、调度都梦回《变形金刚》。老吉继《罪人》后第二次演翻牌电影，虽然丹尼这个角色本色是很俗套的，但被老吉演的亦正亦邪，精彩无比。总体来说是卖拷贝近些年来不错的商业片，仅次于《危机13小时》和《付出与收获》。
故事单薄了点，特效一般，剪辑手法不错，有点新颖。配乐也有些亮点。在飞车上动手术就太夸张了点
本片属于正剧的剧情片，没有什么笑点，剧情也很老套，可是就有人吃这一套。
影片中規中矩，亮點有限，專程冒著“風險”跨區（是的，時至2022年，跨區甚至跨小區流動即已意味著較大的風險）前去觀看，只是為了對艱困年月慘淡經營的電影院聊表支援心意。該片是堅持在本週院線上映的唯一一部稍具規模的影片，昨日為廣州全市“摘星”首日，但仍只有天河區影院以50%座位運營，好在觀眾頗不少——儘管因此也很吵，但這種舊時觀影時所排斥的嘈雜，在今時今日似乎也顯出了可貴和可愛來。IMAX 2D版，2022年4月22日20:00於寰映天河環貿IMAX廳。
重要的事情说三遍。
剧情非常莫名其妙，特别是男主掉进泳池结果被送进急救室那段...不明白男女主除了想和对方上床之外为啥要在一起， 但是的确很适合调剂下心情，又轻松又不费脑子
和其他所有烂片一样：歹戏拖棚，又长又烂。（杭州古墩路汇和影城也必须给我死！为了把画面撑满尺寸小得可怜的宽银幕，而故意放错画幅；为了节约成本，而故意调低放映机灯泡亮度，本片手持摄影2小时让人看到眼花头晕
