Most of the times, a raging-hatred review of something is a rant full of very subjective feelings, with one or two clear points and a lot of effort to avoid finding something redeemable. I read lots of them and think, "this is just a rant; it doesn't really tell why the movie sucks". For example, several Episode I reviews portrayed it as something worse than Highlander 2, while the movie was "just" subpar.That HHGTTG review, however, is not just a rant. It describes the movie in depth and explains exactly what is wrong with it in clear terms. In short, it is a painfully plausible review. Hell, it quotes several of my favorite jokes from the books and says that they aren't in the movie, then it reminds me of some of my favorite dialogues and says that they've been cut, then it briefly explains a few of the book's core themes and says that they are absent. It is ao accurate, it really gives me a bad feeling. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f641.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":(" title="Frown    :("  data-smilie="3"data-shortname=":(" /></blockquote>
