SciFi, Comedy (USA, UK — 2005)

Everyone has bad mornings. You wake up late, you stub your toe, you burn the toast...but for Arthur Dent, this goes far beyond a bad day. When he learns that a friend of his is actually an alien with advanced knowledge of Earth's impending destruction, he is transported off the Earth seconds before it vapourised to make way for a new hyperspace expressway. Throw in an insane electronic encyclopedia, no tea whatsoever, a manically depressed robot and the search for the meaning of life, and you've got the greatest adventure off Earth.
