I liked it.
It made me laugh a lot, and I didn't even care that I was sometimes the only person laughing.
Every person was perfect in their role. I honestly can't think of a single negative thing about each person's performance. My only problem with the characters is that some of them weren't very fleshed out and were underused.
If you haven't ever read the books, there are some parts that aren't explained that make you go "huh?" Like why are towels so important? And you know, I couldn't explain it to you as I haven't read the book in a while and don't remember why towels are important.
For the most part though, even without knowledge of the book, the movie is easy to follow and everything is explained.
Go out and enjoy this movie.
