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.
小成本，弱剧情，有尺度，略血腥的典型好莱坞b级片。
最后有点崩塌，可惜了。前面的行动很是精彩，险象环生，步步紧逼，几乎让人喘不过气来。几个人物立体，很鲜活，不做作
名字很感性，其实就是创业富豪被美女仙人跳了的故事。反面女最出挑，可能支离破碎的就是这个女主的内心吧，无奈动作戏太多，感情戏当鬼片在拍了。
2.对于不属于自己的东西，别碰，有风险，要做好风控。
每一步都离谱到可笑，但是管不住下半身就是这种下场👍
够变态我喜欢，这才是爽片好吗，一看评分这么低，无所谓了，看个电影不享受过程，老是蹲在犄角旮旯挑刺批判羞辱，真特么悲哀！
用谎言来建立的勇气，也会因为另一面的真相，成为仇恨的力量。
精英小队秘密运送结束战争的病毒任务，看似很牛逼的设定，但剧情的拉跨让全片毫无精彩之处。首先战争的发生莫名其妙，到看完了都没明白敌人是谁，为什么要发动战争，敌我双方在争夺什么，片头的场景更像是一场恐怖袭击，这让之后的押运任务从开始就披上了不明就里的面纱。其次人物的形象很单薄苍白，其来龙去脉交代得不清不楚，女主是个啥来头，怎么就成了小队的指挥官，而她的母爱从坚决完成任务到坚决催毁任务过渡太匆忙，仅仅因为被长官骗了就报复?最后在于战斗场面太潦草，冰面突击除了破冰掉水也没啥激烈成分，碉堡攻防战就像游戏一般的儿戏，看不出来这场要毁灭人类的战争多么残酷。龙纹身的女孩应该戏路很广，本片可惜了这个百变娇娃的使用。末世一般的冰天雪地还是可以一看，白雪皑皑的风景还是不错。
冰刀上的战争，寒风凌厉的冰面加上肃杀四起的战场，为母则刚的坚持，战争摧毁的不止是城市更是人性的底线
研发住宅安保系统，却陷于与妻子离婚诉求的富者克里斯，以为自己夜遇斯凯是个偶然，结果是一连串的安排。连撬车敲断克里斯腿也是个设计，这样斯凯可以理所应然的入住山顶豪宅进行照料。同时，斯凯厌烦室友的纠缠，无可利用后，甚至将其割脉而亡。片中第一处智商掉线，是监视山顶的望远镜仍然留在了公寓，房东老头也趁此上山想敲竹杠。第二处智商掉线，是斯凯抢得男主手机的全屋控制权，却没有更改入门密码。后面发展小孩完全可以从砸破的窗户进入，或者身为父亲的男主早为孩子录入了声音人脸等高级权限。而诧异之处，斯凯将枪口对向了教她坑骗伎俩的继父，斯凯意识到自己仍未独立也属心有不忍，但这一幕转变没有设想中的自然。作为爽片还算及格，但逊于“屏住呼吸”的紧张感。对于贫富的描写也触之无力，劫富手段不义，也不是为了实现某种高于个人的理念
其实除去男主的演技，这片也应该7分左右，豆瓣的评分太迷了
正在和老婆协议离婚的退休在山庄的年轻富豪，自以为遇到了真命天女，殊不知一步步陷入设置好的陷阱之中，几近失去所有的财富和性命之际，妻女的出现，使情况出现了更为复杂的变化。在千钧一发之际，竟然是五六岁的女儿开枪杀死女罪犯！有几个蠢点大牙的槽点，但不失为一部吸引人的惊悚片。
剧本实在过于拉胯，危险情人也是老掉牙的桥段了，纯属冲着女主来的，这容颜真的有惊艳到我，只不过女主的演技真的撑不起这种高智商疯批美人的角色，追杀男主时露出的笑容看着好呆萌啊，完全没有杀伤力，6分吧，女主的颜够我看90分钟了！题PS：米奇你还不赶紧出来，你老婆Ian被虐得好惨啊。男主的前妻你也清醒一点呀，你可是克伯格特工“安娜”啊！（doge）
小成本虐杀片，画面十分廉价，弗兰克格里罗在一小时才出场，却在海报上的前位。
密闭空间求生路，变态父女偷天计。
内容就是富翁以为钓了个漂亮的妹纸，结果是人家早已经密谋要夺取他全部身家的人，最后他妻子和女儿来了才扭转了结局。
好悲惨的故事，作为一个有女儿的妈妈，看了绝对心理阴影，我当晚做噩梦。过程还是紧凑，险象环生，惊心动魄，还是有智商的。但就是一件事不明白，冰上行动穿个黑色作战服是为了让敌人看的更清么？
没看出房子有多高科技。女主是真的漂亮，特别喜欢她作为一个变态但说话神态都很放松很舒服的感觉
1.女主很漂亮
蛇蝎美人最为致命，这类剧本虽然可能水准一般，但是演女主的一定是顶尖顶尖的美人。
