Back to the
Future PG
Robert Zemekis blends the right
amount of everything scifi to make thus fun 1985 scifi comedy, where Marty
McFly goes back 30 years into the part through an accident with wacky inventor
Doc Brown's time machine DeLorean. That is just the essence of cool. Michael J
Fox and Christopher Lloyd are a brilliant dynamic duo. The year is 1985 and wisecracking
teen Marty McFly is a known slacker, which he intends to change, but his
inventor friend, Doc Brown, invites him to a time experiment that accidentally
transports him literally out of his element, to 1955, where he accidentally
messes up the meeting of his parents, who in the past are a scifi nerd and a
socialite. The tight script, uncompromising characters, and good old fun makes
for a ‘fish out of water’ and a culture clash between two generations. The JVC
camcorder used in the movie was the same model the reviewer did his first home
movies! Anyway, great trailers and advertising made it even stronger. Fans even
build their own time machine DeLorans, even if they can’t really go back to the
future. It has become one of the classic iconic films of the 1980s not just the
best scifi fantasy of 1985.
