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.
虽然特效有点儿假，某些剧情有点儿假，但这也正是艺术源于生活而高于生活的升华吧，一想到总会有人要做那么危险的工作而让我们安心生活，觉得背后英雄真的很多。除了男主欠了一点饱和的情感状态之外其余演员演的真的很好，国产电影会越来越好的。
5、作为中国电影为数不多的灾难片，还是要给四星。
中国铁道兵继承着人民子弟兵的优良传统，和工农红军八路军解放军志愿军是一脉相承的，在铁道建设领域大放异彩，攻坚克难成为新中国建设发展的主力军，虽然脱下军装改革为中国铁建，但是这只队伍的基因是刻在骨子里的！向最可爱的人致敬！
除了主角光环以外，其他都挺好的，尤其是攀岩，简直教科书一样。
缺点：不知道是导演还是编剧的问题，不够张弛有度。
在网上看过各种评论之后看的。我的感觉就是中国需要更多《峰爆》这样反映中国基建的影视作品。这部影片很专业的为观众呈现了测绘、爆破、施工、救援等等方面的专业知识。片中人物塑造的也很成功。虽然飞扑直升机有些夸张但是瑕不掩瑜。希望今后能有更好的这类题材影片。
煽情的套路看了太多 这个老父亲一出场我就猜到肯定最后要牺牲的来升华父子情 果不其然
点映场看完，除文戏部分四星，算文戏三星
朱一龙的演技真的没得说 但是电影有些地方经不起推敲
天灾是唯一反派 人物多面性缺失
各种剧情断裂得像是一段一段砸脸上。
这么一部灾难片居然不是3D的，剧情浮在面上，细节也经不起推敲，有点尴尬，还不如片尾对铁道兵的介绍好看。
一群好演員發揮了其對於電影的最大意義，演得太好了，好到能讓一部平庸的電影看起來像好電影，在一場又一場可以作為表演課教材的精彩表演背後，是導演的偷懶和隱身，卻仍然讓人無法忽視結構的失調。和《傑出公民》一樣，嘲諷的槍口依然對準了精英主義，然而簡單直白的嘲諷，消解了可能性，將反思取而代之成傲慢，然後甚至顯示出些許“你不喜歡我，我還不喜歡你呢”式的幼稚來。
正能量，情怀片，四星还是有的，父子情也好，指挥部领导也罢，其实都遮不住中字头企业中流砥柱的作用
单位组织去看的 有可取之处 但突显的还是个人英雄主义 bug太多
国产灾难片能拍出这种画面感和紧凑感，必须支持！演员演技都在线，虽然没有曲折反转的剧情，但起码故事完整。
虽然洪翼舟有一段飞檐走壁的镜头略显浮夸，但是这个故事中的父子情，和大灾大难面前的牺牲和解决真的令人感动，有一说一这部戏特效真的不错👍。最后为中国铁道部队光荣伟大的牺牲慨叹百拜……
在灾难面前，西方人的传说是诺亚方舟，我们祖先的故事是精卫填海，愚公移山。
上周六去看了《峰爆》的点映，典型的中国式灾难救援片，沉浸式的观影体验，非常感人。
