Review of Back to the Future Part II (1989) by Jacob — 24 Mar 2014

You’ll come out of this film with either two reactions. One it was a fun time travel movie that had me on the edge of my seat. Another reaction you’ll have is this movie had no heart and just had the characters running around the whole time and never let you breathe and either way you’ll be right.

For me it s a combo of the two. While this was a fun movie it was nowhere near as good as the first one with characters constantly running around and the film never giving the audience or the characters a chance to breathe.

There was not much story or character to this film just one giant marathon that you are exhausted at, which makes it nowhere near is as good as the first one. Thankfully, some of this running around is fun and makes it a decent watch but at the same time it destroys a perfectly good movie.

This sequel didn’t need to exist but at the same time it could have been worse. If you love the first film I’d recommend skipping this film so you’ll just have that one really good one in your head.

If you’re curious check it out as it is not awful its just the first one was so much better where this one is just generic. To reiterate as a film on its own its alright but as a sequel to Back to the Future one of the best movies I have ever seen it is a massive let down lacking substance and is a whole lot of nothing.
