"The Flux capacitor...it's what makes time travel possible."
 
Perhaps my generosity is too great. Perhaps I'm just losing my mind. Maybe "Back to the Future" was the movie that I literally grew up on. Maybe that's why I give such a positive rating. I watched this all the time when I was a kid (and the sequels), and when I saw the trilogy on DVD, I did some serious soul searching and decided to make the purchase. To my great surprise, I found myself loving them more than ever!

"Back to the Future" is a movie about a teenager named Marty (Michael J. Fox) whose mad scientist friend, Doc (a wonderful Christopher Lloyd), invents a time machine Delorean. Things go awry, and soon Marty is sent back to the 1950s, where he proceeds to royally screw things up. You see, he meets his teenage mother and she falls in love with him! From then on, it's a race to get her to fall in love with his father again, otherwise, he'll never exist!

Great fun. No, better make that wonderful fun!

Still lots of fun after all these years!

Richard Propes' Comment

This movie sealed my crush on Lea Thompson, and solidified my positive impression of Michael J. Fox. Crispin Glover also displayed the wild diversity of his talent in this film.
