Classic Friday : Back To The Future Part II (1989) 8/10

Starring : Michael J Fox, Christopher Lloyd, Lea Thompson, Thomas F Wilson, Elisabeth Shue
Director : Robert Zemeckis
Running Time : 108 mins

Having only just returned from 1955, Marty McFly (Fox) is whisked into the future by Doc Brown (Lloyd), who has information about a disaster that is going to befall Marty’s future children. This issue is soon solved, but when Marty returns to 1985 he finds his world has been altered and has to travel back to 1955 to rectify the changes that have occurred.

Despite not being as good as the original, and a few niggly plot points which I won’t go into here, this is still a damn fine sequel with all the energy of the original. Fox and Lloyd repeat their performances as if it’s only been a few days, rather than four years, since they last played Marty and the Doc, and once again Thomas F Wilson puts in a stirling effort as the irrepressible Biff Tannen.
