Back to the Future Part II review
Oct. 12th, 2015 08:48 pm36 Back to the Future Part II
Rewatch
Starring Michael J. Fox as Marty McFly, Martin McFly Jr. and Marlene McFly, Christopher Lloyd as Doctor Emmett Brown, Lea Thompson as two version of Lorraine Baines McFly (Tannen!) and Thomas F. Wilson as various versions of Biff Tannen and Griff Tannen. The story of how Marty McFly and Doc Brown have to fix a change in the timeline after a trip to the future goes horribly wrong. Michael J. Fox continues to portray Marty McFly as well as in the previous film, as the boy out of his depth in a strangely changed world.
The same with Christopher Lloyd, Doc Brown is much the same, very cautious about changing the timeline, and very pragmatic when it comes to trying to change it back.Thomas F. Wilson continues to be great as the now villainous Biff Tannen, who has used the information from the future to become powerful and corrupt. Lea Thompson also portrays the alternate timeline version of Lorraine in a believable way. The version of Hill Valley in the alternate timeline is also well desgined.
However, the scenes where Marty encounters his alternate mother can be disturbing to younger viewers, but it is well done overall. (The way that Biff treats her is obviously not the way that women should be treated. However that caveat does not detract from the experience of watching the movie overall. Well worth rewatching. 8/10.
