Are you talking about the 2005 production? That was done by Touchstone, not Disney. My
daughter loves that movie. Of course, she's ten....
The original stories are wonderful and belong in any true geek's collection.

I'd recommend them, assuming that your personal tastes run in those
directions.
The original BBC TV production was great!
The books are great! Five volumes in the trilogy, and a sixth book somebody else) that is a moderately good attempt
to mimic Adams'
style.
Adams' other books that are NOT part of the
series are also worth
reading.
The Disney movie: I gave away my DVD.
The BBC TV production was good, the BBC Radio Production was FANTASTIC,
the
books were great. I didn't even bother to see the Disney movie.
