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.
超能，绝对力量什么的，在这里面也很作弊啊作弊。
战争戏牛逼，其他就不做评价了，本身也是看战术武器的。
韩国超级英雄电影宇宙，这部飞天遁地时间控制都是小意思。胡乱拼凑的一部电影建议别看！
“我不为俄罗斯工作，我为俄罗斯服务”
整部电影的节奏有问题，没看出来重点是什么。导演既要表达军队战斗场面，又突出了俄罗斯对士兵的重视和军事的强硬，但是前面的铺垫却讲了太久的家庭情感以及出征前的准备。平铺直叙流水账一般。
战斗民族可怕的地方，在电影最后，战死机长的儿子走上前去，答应父亲，长大要成为飞行员，双眼充满愤怒。
抓捕行动都要结束了，火力支援才开始挂弹，然而最后也没用上。
@Vivo 南韩的特技产业已经不输好莱坞了
俄罗斯联邦英雄的称号，中校同志，你值得拥有。
根据真实故事改编还是很有吸引力的，但是看了影片就会知道只是套了一个空壳而已，这简直就是俄罗斯的一个政治工作报告宣传片的感觉，拖拖拉拉的不讲过程在回忆人生的过程却大大的铺张镜头，老毛子的电影真的很难看，这个也算大制作了勉强给了三颗星吧，主要太让人想到我们的一些做法了，但好像比我们还能强一些吧
电影拍得支离破碎，感情戏的篇幅这儿大加进来干嘛，电影中有2次跳伞，一次都顺利落地然后被抓，第二次跳伞天上就死了一个，不知道什么情况。如果需要说明年轻的时候故事为什么不能一次性说清楚，碎片化的穿插真心看的累。
可以看个开头15分钟，然后直接跳到最后五十分钟，你会发现这还是一部不错的战争片，而且还挺感人。
老毛子的主旋律电影，比想象中更磨叽。根据真实事件改编，重点应该在哪里？！时间线拖得过长，不停插入回忆真的好吗？主线是营救，战斗场面差强人意，更多是单方面的武器装备展示，敌我激烈交火的镜头很少。拍得虚、散，导演把这么好的素材糟蹋了也真是够了。
现代战争的高科技和海陆空的强强配合，三下五除二就干掉了。最后纸飞机飞旋天空，有些感到。这世上不该只有美国的英雄主义。
没有字幕，但感触良多。特地下载了一个翻译软件，野生字幕。中间穿插的回忆，是非常好的设计，特别是结尾那段。穿插的回忆是苏联解体，信仰崩溃，遇见爱人，去叙利亚之前和民航那位上层最后的对话，“为俄罗斯服务就是我的工作”（手机就是这样翻译的），再到去叙利亚先立功，后牺牲，俄罗斯海陆空硬核救援另外一名飞行员，最后英雄遗体回国。最后那个纸飞机✈️飞向天空的情节真的很棒。苏联那段心情超级复杂，唉
不过那平行剪辑的邂逅有点甜。
毛子版的红海行动，前面剧情有点拖沓，场面差点，但对人情的描述更细致
勉强三星吧，还是看在拍摄地的面子上。其实开始的公路就眼熟，直到女主穿的衣服写着“위미리”三个字，才去查资料确定我的直觉。最后的决斗现场选在一处马场，有《乐园之夜》的感觉，一看导演，果真是一个人。再来看这部电影，节奏拖沓，演员演技尴尬，超能力超的尬死个人。最不能忍受的是演员们的英文、中文台词，非要语言多元才能显得高级吗？或许该去看看1，扭转一下最初的印象了。金多美还是很美的，短短的出场，已经盖过2的大多数人了。
毛子的CG和战斗场面都做得很好，但是一到剧情上就拉了胯，，，
8.0 制作精良的俄国主旋律，以2015年土耳其击落俄罗斯战机事件为原型。干净利落的交战场面和恢宏大气的俄式美学令人印象深刻。
