Back to the Future Part II is an solid sequel to the first one which Back to the Future (1985) is a masterpiece. This is a fun travel science fiction comedy in the trilogy. It deals with paradox past traveling. From traveling with Time machine Car "DeLorean" in to the future and back to the past again. This film is a 8 in my opinion it doesn't deserve the hate, like mostly viewers stated. I love "Back to the Future" trilogy it is one of my all time favorite trilogy's of all time. I grew up with this trilogy I have seen the first one on VHS as a kid. Years later I have seen the sequels on TV. I love this movie to death and it is my third favorite film in the trilogy. Don't get me wrong but I have enjoyed Back to the Future Part III more than part II and think the third film is the most underrated film in the trilogy and unappreciated. This film does have the comedy and the humor in it.I Love, Love this film so so so much, it is a great direction from Robert Zemeckis and brilliant writing from Bob Gale. Back to the Future Part II was nominated for an Oscar. I really did missed 21st October 2015 an important event date from this film in the trilogy that reached 30 year anniversary in the year 2015 when the trilogy come out respectfully on a Blu-ray. Back to the Future Part II (1989)The story continues when Doctor Emmett Brown, Marty McFly and Jennifer traveling in to the future 2015 to fix Marty's and Jennifer's future in which Marty has to save his son from been jailed. His arch enemy Biff Tannen steals Marty's idea and steal's Gray's Sports Almanac only to travel back in to the past November 12, 1955 to change the alternative time line paradox in which Biff creates the timeline in the year 1985. The same alternative timeline and paradox was also used in The Flash Season 3 Episode 1 Flashpoint. Than the story sets Marty and Doc on the hunt for a Gray's Sports almanac from Biff in the year 1955 in which Biff is a teenager. The chase and a race on the road in which Marty is in Biff's car try's to get the Almanac back and Biff crashes with his car in the truck of manure is my favorite scene in the film. The Hoverboard scene in the future in which Griff chases Marty in the year 2015 and Marty outsmart them in which Griff and his gang lands in the court in the opening scene is also my favorite scene in the film.Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd are excellent in their performances. Michael J. Fox plays more than just one character, he even played Marlene McFly future daughter of Marty.Things I really didn't like about the film and that is why it hurts the film: the dark future created I didn't liked. I hated Thomas F. Wilson's character Biff trough in tier film he was irritating awful person. I didn't like the death of George McFly. I didn't like Biff marrying Loraine. Half of the film was more focusing on Biff than Doc and Marty I hated that idea. I did not like the filmmakers repeat the first movie again in the year 1955. They copied the first film I did not like that idea so sorry. I still hate Biff Tannen in this movie so damn much! I did not like the ending in which Doc was hit by a lightning with "DeLorean" and sent back 100 year in the past. The film didn't had a satisfying ending or a happy ending that we wished for. I didn't like older Marty McFly he acted like he is stupid in the movie that is why I prefer III over this film more. Claudia Wells and Crispin Glover did not return to reprise their roles. I am surprised that actress Elisabeth Shue accept the role of Jennifer but she declined the role for The Karate Kid Part II weird. This film get's 8 "Back to the Future" is my favorite trilogy of all time and I love this movie to death. I hope they don't make Part IV because it will be disaster. It is rated PG for language throughout, some suggestive content and violence. I miss movies like this they don't make em' like this anymore.
While watching the first Back To The Future installment, viewers are given wild action, intense drama, side-splitting comedy, innocent romance, and about a zillion sight/character gags sprinkled throughout. Whew! Just when things seem to be slowing down, however, Doc Brown races back to 1985 and whisks Marty and Jennifer into the future (via a souped-up, flying Delorean time machine) to solve a problem regarding the newly budding couple's kids. This sets the stage for Back To The Future II.Basically, the plot of this film sees the trio of Marty, Jennifer, and Doc going ahead in time to the year 2015, where they must rectify a certain situation that will inevitably lead to dire consequences for all parties involved. However, after seemingly putting the future in "good working order", they are in for a shock when they return to 1985 and find a few "changes" have taken place due to their meddlings, of which only a trip back to that fateful "Clock Tower" night of 1955 is needed to get "back to the (real) future".The main appeal of this second effort in the trilogy is its ability to seamlessly connect/incorporate the events of the first film into these two hours. Though the third film seems to lack a bit of the energy and inventiveness that made the original so great, "Part II" "fluxes" at full "capacity" all the way through.Thus, if you were blown away by the original Back To The Future film, have no qualms about immediately seeking out its first sequel, as it will continue to entertain you like never before.
The continuation of the fun "Back to the future" does not have the same brilliance and charm as the first, but still, it remains a film that puts a smile on the face of any viewer. We have a continuation with a clever script, special legal effects for the time, funny and funny performances, all the 80's cliché, and so on ... that idea of all the movies have links between them is very cool, do you Want to see the first one to try to get all the ester eggs, but also we have flaws, like not taking advantage of interesting characters, the repetition of ideas, the errors of continuism, etc. But anyway, "Back to the future" continues Being a very late afternoon movie, which is not bad, because it is a very fun movie and to be with the family, and technically is good, does not have the first film's beauty, but fulfills its role very well.
Back to the Future Part II continues right where the first movie left off, and it uses this starting point to bring protagonists Marty McFly and Doctor Emmet Brown into the 'future' of 2015. This future has flying cars, televisions in bars playing Michael Jackson and Max Headroom on the screens, and a cameo of a young Elijah Wood playing an arcade game.This film does admittedly show its age in certain areas (with this review being written in 2016), but damn is it still true to the sense of fun that the first Back to the Future film had, even if Part II directly borrows from it many times throughout the story. At least Part II utilizes new stories whilst honoring the first film at the same time.Part II is a very watchable film and has a lot of what made the first film great to begin with.
