Synopsis

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.

CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
ThrillMessage There are better movies of two hours length. I loved the actress'performance.
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
ivo-cobra8 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.
zkonedog 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.
brian_m_hass This 1989 sequel to the 1985 film, "Back to the Future," features the continuing adventures of Marty McFly and Doc Brown. In this film, Marty must travel from 1985 to the year 2015 to help his own son. Through an act of carelessness, Marty initiates a chain of events which alters events prior to 1985. Marty and Doc must return to 1955 to repair the damage to their own history.Although entertaining, this second film wasn't quite as good as the first and third films in the series. The character, Jennifer Parker, did little except faint a lot in the movie; so, the inclusion of the character in the story seemed a bit puzzling. The older versions of the characters from the year 2015 were depicted in an over- the-top manner, rendering them somewhat less credible. The future characters seemed more like parodies of the younger versions from the earlier film, which diminished the audience's ability to engage with them on any emotional level. However, the story of the lives of the future characters of this film was intended to be only a backdrop to the more interesting story about Marty McFly, Professor Brown, and Biff from 1985.While this second film was arguably the weakest of the three "Back to the Future" films; this film still managed to become a source of interest as it approached the date, October 21, 2015 (the future date depicted in the 1989 film). Audiences of 2015 were amused by some of the film's 26-year-old predictions which proved to be wildly inaccurate. Audiences of the year 2015 also had the opportunity to compare how well the actors had actually aged in real life compared to the way they were artificially aged using makeup and prosthetics in 1989.In spite of its flaws, the second film in the "Back to the Future" trilogy still manages to be fun. The film is well paced; and, the time paradox problem is interesting. Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd, and Thomas Wilson put in great performances. The film's forecasts of the future as well as its re-creation of scenes from the first film provide points of interest for the audience. The film is a fascinating entry in the trilogy which audiences will enjoy!
adonis98-743-186503 After visiting 2015, Marty McFly must repeat his visit to 1955 to prevent disastrous changes to 1985...without interfering with his first trip. Back to the Future Part II is not only way more fun than the first film but it's also way more on Nostalgia than the first one was the 2015 scenes were hilarious and very nostalgic from the skateboards to the jackets and the shoes also that scene with Jaws 19 is still great after all this years and yes the shark still looks fake also once again Michael J.Fox and Christopher Lloyd were fantastic as Marty and Doc Brown and although there's some plot holes or things that make no sense every single one of this big time travel films about multiple timelines and paradox are the same for a example Terminator Genisys had the exact same story it had an alternative 1984 just like Back to the Future 2 had an alternative 1985 you can easily change both the past and the future. Overall the film plays both in the past and the future and it does it so well also the Alan Silvestri soundtrack is iconic and it reminds me a bit of Predator another great 80's film and that's why i'm gonna give BTTF II an A+
