Released in 1989, "Back to the Future Part II" stars Michael J. Fox as Marty McFly, a teen from 1985 who travels to 2015 with Doc Brown (Christopher Lloyd) on his time machine. When they return to 1985 they discover that an item was inadvertently taken from 2015 and brought to 1955, which changed history and made Hill Valley a dystopia. So they frantically venture back to 1955 to try to correct the problem. Crispin Glover & Lea Thompson play Marty's parents while Thomas F. Wilson plays the villain, Biff. Elisabeth Shue replaces Claudia Wells as Marty's girlfriend, but she's asleep most of the movie.This is almost as good as the first movie, but the goofy tone of the first act throws it off, although it's action-packed. The next two acts are better as Marty & Doc go back in time and cleverly try to fix things. While the plot is way more complicated than the first film it's surprisingly easy to follow (Doc effectively explains the logistics in one scene). However, it's mandatory that you watch the first movie to fully appreciate this one. It can be argued that the movie was overly optimistic about the future (that is, 2015), but it was surprisingly accurate with some things, like video phones and, to some degree, hover-boards. But since the 'future' shown in the movie (2015) is a timeline manipulated by the protagonists it's an ALTERNATE reality and not necessarily the way things panned out in reality. It was Doc himself who invented the technology for flying automobiles since he already created the flying DeLorean in the first movie.The film runs 108 minutes and was shot in Oxnard, Monrovia, Arleta, Whittier, Baldwin Park, South Pasadena, Pasadena, Universal City and Los Angeles, California. DIRECTOR: Robert Zemeckis. WRITERS: Zemeckis & Bob Gale. GRADE: B+

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.

Just as every sequel, Back to the Future Part 2 faces the challenge to make up for the missing element of surprise. Even though a lot of creativity was put into the movie, the bigger concept is already known from the first part. Gladly the Back to the Future series has some more things to offer, mainly the warm atmosphere it creates alongside with likable characters that are easy to cheer for.All in all I really wasn't disappointed by this film. I felt entertained and it didn't really have lengths. I would even consider watching it again after some time.What bothered me a bit though are the plot holes. In a world where everything changes out of smallest decisions how likely is it that the sports results remain the same? Also the rules for people remembering about their time travel seem a bit vague. In a movie that's centered around that theory, I would have expected the crew to consider that.Nonetheless, if you are looking for some easy, heart-warming entertainment, this is it.

From the start it created sense that it's going to be complicated and it continued to be throughout whole movie, as they were desperate to explain everything that is happening and move almost whole focus on that you are being left with too little space for plot. Plot is a bit twisty and keeps you thinking about it whole time as it changes from future to present to past and great help was that comedic creation of scenes and characters that are funny. Whole new adventures for Marty and Doc are made and sometimes it was very enjoyable to watch. Again Marty is very well played character that keeps the movie going and with great help of Emmett they made a movie that is not as good as the first one but you can enjoy the movie knowing that altering something is going to create a new path in past and you are always moved to see what they did. 3/4
