Movie Info
In this 1980s sci-fi classic, small-town California teen Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox) is thrown back into the '50s when an experiment by his eccentric scientist friend Doc Brown (Christopher Lloyd) goes awry. Traveling through time in a modified DeLorean car, Marty encounters young versions of his parents (Crispin Glover, Lea Thompson), and must make sure that they fall in love or he'll cease to exist. Even more dauntingly, Marty has to return to his own time and save the life of Doc Brown.

Very hilarious, with special effects that still hold today and memorable characters (especially Michael J. Fox and Christopher Llyod), great storylines (though predictable and mean-spirited at times), this is an absolute awesome science-fiction comedy!

A summer blockbuster popcorn adventure not to be missed. This movie is a classic. Marty McFly is accidentally sent 30 years into the past in a time-traveling DeLorean and has to ensure his parents still meet so he can eventually be born. This movie is great. So happy that Marty was recast and given to Michael J. Fox. Words really don't do this film justice, you just need to see it. Great adventure with perfect blend of comedy and excitement. Will be interesting to see how this current generation reacts to this film as the 80s seem so long go for them.

"Back To The Future" is an entertaining Action/Sci-Fi/Comedy movie. "Back To The Future" has great acting mostly from "Michael J. Fox" and "Christopher Lloyd". "Back To The Future" has an amazing plot and script. Every minute of "Back To The Future" is exciting, not one scene is dull or boring. "Back To The Future" has pretty good music to go with the scenes. I would recommend you watch "Back To The Future" if you like funny Action/Sci-Fi's. And I give it a 9/10.
