Back to the Future Part III Reviews
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.
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.
Except for Mr. Lloyd, the film is so sweet-natured and bland that it is almost instantly forgettable.

| Original Score: 2.5/5
Divinely frivolous, nearly perfect fun.
Ties up all the loose ends but runs out of energy and inspiration.
Makes a few bows in the direction of time-travel complexities, and then settles down to be a routine Western comedy.
