Tagline: Getting back was only the beginning.
Plot: The second part of the trilogy begins as Doc, Marty and Jennifer take the time-traveling DeLorean into the year 2015 to straighten out the future of the McFly family. But Biff Tannen steals the time machine and gives his younger self a book containing 50 years of sports statistics, which the young Biff uses to amass an enormous gambling fortune and transform idyllic Hill Valley into a living hell. To restore the present, Doc and Marty must return to the events of their previous adventure in 1955 and retrieve the book.
My rating: 5/10
Will I watch it again? Never.
What a tremendous let down. I realize that it would be virtually impossible to make a sequel nearly as good as the first but this is downright awful in comparison. The film makers seemed more preoccupied with referencing the first film that they sacrificed making a good one. It had a decent plot but it was muddied with nonsense. It wasn't the actors' fault. The blame is solely on Zemeckis who also co-wrote it with the original film's screenwriter, Bob Gale. And the biggest offense? No Crispin Glover who was sadly missed.
