Review:
In the second part of the Back to the Future trilogy Marty McFly returns from the past only to be send on another adventure. This time he and girlfriend Jennifer and Dog end up taking the Deloreon to the future (2015 which is frighteningly not that far away). See Marty's future son Marty Jr. is about to commit robbery so they have to try to put together a plan to prevent this from happening. While this is going on, Marty buys a sports book from the future but when he brings it back to the current time it's stolen by a bully. Unfortunately the bully is smart enough to steal the time machine and alter time so guess what they have to do again... It's still a very entertaining part of the story, it's creative and I do believe anyone who liked the first one should definitely enjoy this one too (even if it's not quite as exciting). Still a definite '80s classic into one heck of an amazing trilogy!

Review:
So far from what I've seen I'd say this is the greatest time travel movie ever, and even the sequels are awesome! We meet typical '80s boy Marty McFly who befriends the Doc (supremely played by Christopher Lloyd) as he's working on a time travel Deloreaon! After the death of his friend Marty ends up traveling back to 1955 and find the Doc and convince him of the future so he can go home again. On his journey in the past he disrupts the future and more importantly the relationship between his Parents so he must first try and fix that before he can ever go home. It's pretty exciting, inventive and full of adventure. I think the fact that this story is so well written and well assembled that makes it such a classic that everyone should love.
