Marty and Doc are at it again in this wacky sequel to the 1985 blockbuster as the time-traveling duo head to 2015 to nip some McFly family woes in the bud. But things go awry thanks to bully Biff Tannen and a pesky sports almanac. In a last-ditch attempt to set things straight, Marty finds himself bound for 1955 and face to face with his teenage parents -- again.

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Acting is amazing, and knowing that 2015 was nothing like the 2015 they were thinking about (except for the cubs) I think the clothes from that era were laughable. But they still got it!!!!
I think the second is better than the first, itd more complex, with the now, the present, past and future, the double ups and the split timelines, make for entertaing viewing!
While watching the first Back To The Future installment, viewers are given wild action, intense drama, side-splitting comedy, innocent romance, and about a zillion sight/character gags sprinkled throughout. Whew! Just when things seem to be slowing down, however, Doc Brown races back to 1985 and whisks Marty and Jennifer into the future (via a souped-up, flying Delorean time machine) to solve a problem regarding the newly budding couple's kids. This sets the stage for Back To The Future II.Basically, the plot of this film sees the trio of Marty, Jennifer, and Doc going ahead in time to the year 2015, where they must rectify a certain situation that will inevitably lead to dire consequences for all parties involved. However, after seemingly putting the future in "good working order", they are in for a shock when they return to 1985 and find a few "changes" have taken place due to their meddlings, of which only a trip back to that fateful "Clock Tower" night of 1955 is needed to get "back to the (real) future".The main appeal of this second effort in the trilogy is its ability to seamlessly connect/incorporate the events of the first film into these two hours. Though the third film seems to lack a bit of the energy and inventiveness that made the original so great, "Part II" "fluxes" at full "capacity" all the way through.Thus, if you were blown away by the original Back To The Future film, have no qualms about immediately seeking out its first sequel, as it will continue to entertain you like never before.
Back to the Future Part II continues right where the first movie left off, and it uses this starting point to bring protagonists Marty McFly and Doctor Emmet Brown into the 'future' of 2015. This future has flying cars, televisions in bars playing Michael Jackson and Max Headroom on the screens, and a cameo of a young Elijah Wood playing an arcade game.This film does admittedly show its age in certain areas (with this review being written in 2016), but damn is it still true to the sense of fun that the first Back to the Future film had, even if Part II directly borrows from it many times throughout the story. At least Part II utilizes new stories whilst honoring the first film at the same time.Part II is a very watchable film and has a lot of what made the first film great to begin with.
