Back to the Future

Back to the Future II Critics and audiences didn't seem too happy with this inventive, perhaps too clever sequel to the popular 1985 comedy about a high school kid (Michael J. Fox) who travels into the past and has to bring his parents together (or lose his own existence). Director Robert Zemeckis and...	Back to the Future III Shot back-to-back with Back to the Future II, this final chapter in the series is less hectic than that film and has the same sweet spirit of the first, albeit in a whole new setting. This time, Michael J. Fox's character ends up in the Old West of 1885, trying to prevent the dea...	Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark (Special Edition) It's said that the original is the greatest, and there can be no more vivid proof than Raiders of the Lost Ark, the first and indisputably best of the initial three Indiana Jones adventures cooked up by the dream team of Steven Spielberg and George Lucas. Expectations were high f...	The Karate Kid (Special Edition) John G. Avildsen not only directed Rocky, he tried remaking it over the years in a dozen different ways. One of them was this popular 1984 drama about a new kid (Ralph Macchio) in town targeted by karate-wielding bullies until he gets a new mentor: the handyman (Pat Morita) from ...	The Wizard of Oz (Two-Disc Special Edition) When it was released during Hollywood's golden year of 1939, The Wizard of Oz didn't start out as the perennial classic it has since become.

Back To The Future
Have you ever wanted to travel through time? To see the future? To witness historic events? Marty McFy(Michael J. Fox) finds hinself facing this when his friend "Doc" Emmett L. Brown(Christopher Lloyd) builds a time machine. Marty is accidentally sent back to 1955 (from 1985) ( he's only 17, so he hasn't been born yet) and disrupts his parents'(Lea Thompson and Crispin Glover) first meeting. On top of that, he might be stuck in 1955 because there isn't much plutonium around yet, and that's what makes the car a time machine. The actors do a great job of combining reality and science fiction to make my favorite movie. Do not show to young children who do not know cussing is wrong, as charactars swear freely.

I Love This Movie!
I've watched this movie at least 20 times by now and never seem to get tired of it. Michael Fox reacts perfectly to the travel back in time scenario. Watch him squirm when he realizes the 1950s girl making eyes at him is his mom-to-be in 1985. Christopher Lloyd is a comic genius whose body language and facial expressions will have you in stitches. As a nutty professor type trying to invent a time travel machine (and succeeding), he is also perfect for this film. The headlong pacing, plus the humorous and inventive situations make this a fun movie for the whole family.

Weird science and mad scientists in action!
Exciting action/scifi movie with all the standard attributes: car chasings, gun fire, fist fights.... The movie authors ridiculize the great scientist Einstien, by naming the a dog after him, and having a main charcter whose hairstyle is like Einstein's. The plot is about timetravel back and forth to the past (1955) and present (1985). A high school scateboarding student and his older friend, the "Doc" have adventures while travelling to the past and present. Of course, in real life this is not possible. As long as you don't object to the impossible time travel, the rest of the movie is entertaining and energizing. The music is dynamic... A hard rock song ("The power of love") is the main theme. And there is nice jazzy muzic, when they reach 1955. The time travel is accomplished by using a remote-controlled car. There are some hidden commercials of Pepsi and Calvin Klein. All in all, it's a very well done movie! Over the course of our lives, we see things change, just as it is portrayed in the movie, so the movie makes sense to me. Actually, I have done some time travelling myself as well. I left my country and came back 10 years later. Boy, how different it looked! So I can almost identify with the movie's plot. That's why I give it a full 5 stars rating and two thumbs up!

BTTF
BACK TO THE FUTURE this experience is as good a movie now, as it was in 1985. back to the future is a rewarding family experience that combines learning about technology and science "no this sucker is electrical, but I need a nuclear reaction to generate the 1.21 gigawatts for the time distortion field", family values "marty you have got to save your father now, or else he will be ERASED! , erased from existence....." and a fun time into one great experience. If you go to film school, teach those academic idiots a lesson about real filmmaking and talk about back to the future... Filmmaking is NOT an academic exercise, its an experience... yo have to live it, and walk the walk to be a part of it... michael, los angeles, california If a film is not there to have a good time, what the hell is it for?????

A classic
Okay so maybe it's not a classic...but I think that it should be. This is a very well written script that stands the test of time. Watching this film on cable yesterday, the movie doesn't once fall into the campy column. I can't say the same for the rest of the series. To tell you the truth I think that they should have stopped at the one movie. But still, this movie has everything, laughs, lite-suspense, and just an all around good, clean family fun.
