Reviews for Back to the Future Part III
Except for Mr. Lloyd, the film is so sweet-natured and bland that it is almost instantly forgettable.
05/20/03
Top CriticMakes a few bows in the direction of time-travel complexities, and then settles down to be a routine Western comedy.
01/01/00
Top CriticNot as tremendous as the first movie but it is thrilling, funny and very exciting.
01/01/00
It ain't only the DeLorean that's out of gas.
02/25/09
The bad news may be that it's all quite predictable, but the good news is that it doesn't matter.
01/01/00
Divinely frivolous, nearly perfect fun.
01/01/00
Top CriticA clever and enjoyable wrapping-up of the time-travelling adventures.
05/05/08
Overall this is a good time, but the steampunk adventure doesn't thrill us quite as much as the original.
09/16/06
It manages to recapture the sense of fun that made the first Back to the Future so memorable and enjoyable.
01/01/00
This is a good deal more likable than part two because the product plugs have been held back, and Zemeckis is clearly having fun alluding to his favorite westerns; there's also a certain sweetness and charm in the Lloyd-Steenburgen romance.
02/26/07
Top CriticThe new film not only spoofs westerns, but spoofs itself to the point the viewer is constantly reminded this is only a movie.
03/16/03
The simplicity of plot, and the wide expansiveness of its use of space, are a refreshing change from the convoluted, visually cramped and cluttered second part.
05/05/08
Top Critic[The film] isn’t much chop.
09/27/02
'De Volta Para o Futuro 3' fecha com chave de ouro esta fantástica trilogia (na verdade, um grande filme de 6 horas de duração).
05/31/02
Fttingly the one installment in the trilogy that most resembles an old-fashioned movie, from its lovingly evoked western setting to its charmingly sentimental mood.
02/26/07
A fitting end to one of the most enjoyable fantasy series of the 1980s.
05/05/08
Affectionate, innovative, and vaguely lunatic.
01/26/06
Solid end to super fun trilogy; Fox & Lloyd still great
