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.
不知道原著是不是也是这么个设定，反正这电影的核心逻辑根本立不住……就指望日本人傻得连真假都分不出来吗？还得指望日本人良心发现把文物还回来？事实上很多文物直接流失海外也没被毁损啊，只不过放在英美法之类的正规博物馆里让人觉得操蛋而已，不至于灭失啊。所以这个故事从根上就很扯淡，外面再套再多层皮，也没法给人真实感。没有起码的民族意识，硬要拍民族情节的故事，难受，也难看。
付贵付贵，葛大爷不愧是你！今年看过最爽的片子了。。我好热爱鉴宝，盗墓类的电影，一定一定要多拍啊！许愿雷大头最后那个又哭又笑得镜头绝了，飒姐黄烟烟港风造型可，台词可，豁得出去的演技，让我没想到的是药不然现男友，果然如原作者所说的，我恨不得把金丝眼镜焊在他脸上，get到了，大荧幕上还是很帅的。还有说逃档乱说一通是被打脸了吧！
啊这，短发演技我惊呆了

非常類型片化，但是如果以《尋龍訣》做對比，又明顯差上一截，故事講得有些平，高潮戲有些許寡淡。迷霧重重，懸念迭起，人心難辨，故事馬伯庸味很十足，一環套一環佈局精巧。葛優依然是四兩撥千，雷佳音、辛芷蕾對角色完成得也不錯，最大驚喜是阿如那，誰能想象《驢得水》中的小銅匠也能演一個機關算盡又暴戾乖張的角色呢？
个人觉得肯定算不上烂片，但也就隔着一层纸吧。非原著党表示节奏有点太赶，光靠着吆喝一些花里胡哨的话调动气氛，这不是在纯装B嘛，细节压根没有办法去推敲呢，脑子一晃等编剧给你来反转就行。并不觉得葛大爷有多出彩，李现演的也不差，雷佳音正常发挥，辛芷蕾真是越看越好看鸭，反倒演的最好的是阿如那(郑国渠)，那段酒席看的是真来劲！
有点烂尾，但也比较贴近现实。校园暴力对一个人的影响真的很严重，他会影响人的一生改变他的性格，可能表面上受害者看起来并没有多大的影响，但他们内心受到的伤害是没办法修复的，是会影响他们之后的社交，他们可能会没有办法去相信其他人去害怕与他人交往。
最后的反转我给到了四星，我说里面这些人物怎么那么年轻呢，原来是几年前就拍好了，千禹熙在里面感觉就是个打酱油的呀（当然了颜很可），四个人的名字写在上面一点都不冤，最后建宇说的那句，跟他们比起来你更坏。那3人是校园霸凌者没错，要受到应有的惩罚，但瀚洁从一方面来看是受害者，但另一方面来看是加害者，也是杀人者。
有种感觉 韩影会在辉煌中衰落
平庸，第三幕节奏崩盘，葛优死的时候竟然画面上有背景音乐歌词，你们tm在拍MV么？好几处尴尬的煽情让人毫无共情，用全片唯一一个亮点角色的话来说：“还他妈演呢？真把我当傻子了？”
俩人头一回戴口罩我想，卧槽这么快2019了吗🤔
蓝问的那个问题就是电影想表达的主旨吧
在B站看到好几次剪辑短片，都没有燃起想看的欲望。今天不知怎么的就突然想看一下。情节虽看起来简单但的确是不少观众曾经的爱恋经历。于铁石心肠的我而言，一直无法共情，唯独最后，看着心爱的人嫁于别人，从此便将彼此深深的爱埋藏心底的无奈……泪水打湿的那句“我愿意”……为青春爱恋戴上的戒指……哭了会儿
反转反转再反转，除了小白实习老师竟真的从学生到家长到校方全员恶人。故事本身是中规中矩的校园暴力案，叙述则更多是家长间的斗智斗勇，3星标准，多给一颗星给薛景求。
没看过原著的我和看过原著的老公都看的很开心。剧情挺流畅的，完成度也挺不错的，部分改动也还算合理，主题还是中国古代文化，有这种水平我已经觉得非常难得了。
但是这个be我真的不能接受
故事很好，谜题的特效不错，可惜除了阿如那和葛大爷的剧情之外，节奏稀烂。
只想要那几个孩子自己他们的父母去死，这什么东西啊，没有良心斯密达。助纣为虐！
2.5。难得在影院看到一部国产类型片，首先得承认观感是愉悦的，但细节做得很不好。仅看那些古董，没有任何美感可言，那对青花瓷缸，白送都没人要……主角们卖弄的鉴赏门道逻辑不严谨，更不成体系，吴清源等典故的引用太表面了，可见编剧并未做足功课，以至于古董局中局，只看重局的设计，而本来能传递更多信息的古董被忽视，在视觉上也就失衡了，因为这会导致导演的镜头无所适从，没足够的信息量可捕捉，后期只能靠碎片化的剪接推进悬疑，于是从头到尾都没找到章法。
