Critics and audiences didn't seem too happy with this inventive, perhaps too clever sequel to the popular 1985 comedy about a high school kid (Michael J. Fox) who travels into the past and has to bring his parents together (or lose his own existence). Director Robert Zemeckis and cast bent over backwards to add layers of time-travel complication to this follow-up, and while it surely exercises the brain it isn't necessarily funny in the same way that its predecessor was. It's well worth a visit, though, just to appreciate the imagination that went into it, particularly in a finale that has Fox's character watching his own actions from the first film. --Tom KeoghCustomer reviews:  THE MOST EPISODE COMPLEX OF THE TRILOGY, 2006-03-04
IN A NUTSHELL: DOES WHAT A TIME TRAVEL MOVIE IS SUPPOSED TO DO!
This sequel of the superb "Back To The Future" is a very earnest attempt to follow a winning formula up with a truly worthwhile effort in this sequel. Complex, yes, but interesting. Unfortunately, at times it gets a bit too mechanically contrived with the time sequence derivations, and I find myself mentally checking the continuity which detracts from the theme. Nevertheless, if you liked the first "Back To The Future" you will probably enjoy this movie. All the characters are present from the original and they are playing multiple generations almost simultaneously. After all, isn't that what a time travel ovie is supposed to do?
 The Best of the Trilogy, by a light year, and..., 2005-12-31
Jason & The Scorchers fans might like this
one as Jason himself has an unbilled cameo
in it as Future Biff's head thug! The Rock
N Roll connection shouldn't faze fans of the
genre since Michael A. Fox (cousin of Andy,
who played on Thunder And Fire)[Michael's
real name, above, too] and Fox, who was a
big fan of Cheap Trick's "always on MTV"
stuff of that period, had a Van Halen solo
in the cassette in the "Darth Vader from
Planet Vulcan" scene with Krispin Glover
in the First installment of this Series
**.5 stars). B-T-T-F II was fimed at the
same time as Back to the Future III (**.5
stars as well) but is better than it's pre-
decessor and follow-up because of the time
travel (to 2015 - Miami winning the World
Series[ today kids, that's the Florida Mar-
lins, who actually won in '97 and '03], and
back to 1955). Best of the trilogy. Get it!
