Review

some say that the second is the best of the bunch, but i still think #1 is. each one gets a little worse than the previous. #2 is even more dated than #1 because we’re so close to the date that was in the future and most of that stuff is really wishful thinking at this point. funny how things never move as fast as the movies seem to think. although there is a miami baseball team now and it’s not completely crazy to think that the cubs could win the series in 2015. maybe i’ll place a bet…

the doc/marty combo is every bit as good here as it was in the first one. there was some stilted acting, though, in the opening scene which had to be reshot to include elizabeth shue as the new girlfriend. the rest of the film played well though.

it’s a fun ride and biff is a good villain. he should have made it to the afi list of heroes and villains.
