Getting back was only the beginning.

Marty and Doc are at it again in this wacky sequel to the 1985 blockbuster as the time-traveling duo head to 2015 to nip some McFly family woes in the bud. But things go awry thanks to bully Biff Tannen and a pesky sports almanac. In a last-ditch attempt to set things straight, Marty finds himself bound for 1955 and face to face with his teenage parents -- again.

    You gotta go forward to save the past and back to alter the future.

    Yikes!

    Back to the Future Part II sees Marty & Jennifer coerced by Doc into travelling forward in time to correct the future. But Biff is still around and spies an opportunity for untold riches; which he takes. Meaning our three time travelling wonders have to find a way back to the past to stop Biff from changing the course of history.

    The gargantuan, and deserved, success of Back To The Future ensured {demanded} that a sequel would follow. So taking the bull by the horns, Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gray crafted not only a sequel, but a trilogy, of which part two is ultimately a sort of interim plot filler for the finale to come a year later. There's no doubt about i...

    This was one I think I was slightly disappointed in when I first saw it in theaters back in '89 and even with subsequent viewings on VHS and DVD, however I've come to appreciate it more over the years post-2000s. Lots of fun though feels disjointed at times going back and forth in time from 1985 to 2015 to alternate 1985 and back to 1955. But I did like the technical aspects re-creating the events of the first movie. 4.0/5

    PS: Still remember back in the day seeing a TV special and believing the hoverboard was real, lol.

    My favorite out of the series. I like this one better, because your rewatching the 1st one as the 2nd one is helping the 1st one at the same time. So you get to enjoy the 1st one again with new twists added from the 2nd one. But you can't see yourself watching the 1st one while watching the 2nd one, because the 1st one is not suppose to see the 2nd one watching it, and vice versa. Otherwise something bad will happen if the 1st and 2nd one see each other. Lol you get what I'm saying!

    Don't bother. Just rewatch the original again and be thankful.

    "Back to the Future Part II" is a refreshing and inexhaustible source of entertainment and inventive fun for everyone. It features an abundance of memorable action sequences which have been brought to the screen with innovation and skill and great visual imagination. It also draws upon events featured in the original film to create an entirely different slant on the same sequences, but this time around the motivating factors in doing this retread are entirely different. Of course such sequences as these could mean a distinct lack of creative inspiration, but fortunately that is never the case here because they are visually inspired and they only add to the overall fabulous enjoyment to be had.
