Advantages: NIce future scenes Disadvantages: Not as good as the first, a bit confusing
Back again!
As much as I loved Back to the Future as a Trilogy, the first movie for me is still the best, never to be topped and of all three, the second one is probably the one I liked the least.
Marty and Doc went back to 1955, then came Back to the Future in1985 having solved the problem with his parents and now they have to go Back to the Future again, this time to 2015, confused, yes so was I!!!
I think the main reason why I don’t like this ... ...and intends to take it back to 1985 and to possibly profit from it. Doc is very unhappy with this attitude and tells him that the time machine cannot be used as a financial gain so he throws the Almanac into the rubbish bin where lo and behold the magazine falls into the wrong hands, namely those of Biff. The rest of the story follows on from there. Biff is now rich and the course of history has been changed forever, can Marty and Doc save themselves ...

Advantages: more great action and comedy from the time travelling duo Disadvantages: needs a tiny bit of concentration to keep up
...to 1985 to bring Marty back to 2015 because of some terrible situation Marty and Jennifers children were getting into… (sounds a little complicated but it soon becomes clear…)
With Marty having to stop his future kids, Marty JR and Marlene, (both played by Fox himself) from ruining their lives he realises that he is up against Griff Tannen, (played by Thomas F. Wilson) as the grandson of his oldest nemesis, Biff. When Marty happens upon a sports ... ...plans on taking the magazine back to 1985 to help him with his financial future….to the horror of the Doc who discards the magazine…..
But this doesn't quite go to plan as when the trio return back to 1985 they soon realise that the past has been dramatically changed and for some strange reason Biff Tannan lords over the entire slums of Hill Valley…..
Marty and the doc soon realise what has happened and have to travel back in time to 1955 to stop ...

Advantages: Nice to see what the 1980s thought of the 2010s are like Disadvantages: None
Back to the Future Part II is an excellent follow up to the original. It was made in 1989, 4 years after the first one. It has lots of interesting concepts. Is it better than the first one? Read on... --- the BASICS --- Back to the Future Part II is a science fiction film about time travelling, starring Michael Fox and Christopher Lloyd as the 2 main lead characters and directed by Robert Zemeckis. The first film was about the invention of the time ... ...Marty and doc make it back to 1985? And will everything be the same again? Enjoy the film! --- the THEORY --- (The flying car and the hoverboard) This is an interesting concept. For a car or anything for that matter to hover, there must be a way to break gravity. So either we discover some anti-gravitrons or the roads are all coated with massive magnets and the cars / boards as well and they repel each other. It's very unlikely to ever happen. A ...

Advantages: genious script, more adventures for marty and the doc! Disadvantages: different female actress
Ah the back to the future trilogy! is there a better trilogy? if there is i dont wanna know about it. Back to the future 2 picks up exactly where the first one left off with the doc telling marty "its your kids marty something has to be done about your kids!" if your a fan of the first film you will probably realise that this scene is re-filmed in the second film due to the fact that the previous actress who played marty's girlfriend was not available ... ...to the future fashion with great performanced from michael j fox who plays a whole lotta characters in this film from his future self, to his son and...his daughter. Although this film is very good it does suffer slightly from "sequel syndrome" where the audience critisises harshly on comparison to the first film as they aslready had an idea of what THEY wanted to the sequal to be about. still if this film is looked upon fairly and not in comparison ...
