Very Good Sequel(SPOILERS)

Rating: 9/10 (20 January 2007)

SPOILERS
Okay, no type of sequel can surpass the original Back to the Future, back I must admit, this one comes pretty darn close. There are a lot, I mean a lot, of deja-vu moments. Also, if you really think, there are a lot of movie parodies in this movie. For example, when Marty confronts Biff in the bathtub, the camera angles are exactly like a scene in one of the James Bond movies. I have not the faintest idea which one it parodies, but still, I know it parodies a Bond film. At least I think it parodies a Bond film. Anyway, this is a good sequel. The plot of it, however, is a bit more complicated than the original. The original had a hard plot to follow, too. The worst part is to fit it into words.
Here is the plot. This film takes place right after the first one left off. Marty McFly, Doc, and Marty's girlfriend named Jennifer go to the year 2015. Doc wants to change the future because Marty's son is going to go to jail. Doc puts sleeping gas on Jennifer because she was asking too many questions. Marty changes the future and makes sure his son doesn't go to jail. He also buys a sports almanac that tells all of the sports wins form 1950-2000. Doc throws it away. Then, an old Biff, who was Marty's father's nemesis, takes the almanac. A sleeping Jennifer is taken by the police and taken to her house. She is rescued by Doc, but she faints when she sees her future self. Then Biff takes the time machine car and goes to the past. Marty, Doc, and Jennifer go back to the past and realize it has become a horrible place. Worst of all, Marty's father is dead and Biff is Marty's mother's husband. He is also rich. Marty finds out that Biff has the almanac. Marty and Doc go back to 1955 to get the almanac. Marty gets the almanac from Biff. The future is changed. Then, Doc is struck by lighting and goes back to the year 1895. Marty gets help from another Doc to get him back.
Overall, yes, it is a cliffhanger, but if two and three would have been one whole film it would have been over two hundred minutes. It is a fantastic film that anyone who is a fan of the original Back to the Future should, actually must see this film. It would not make sense without this film. Although it is confusing at times, like Biff going back in time to give the almanac to himself thus making him a rich man, and it is definitely not as good as the original, it is still one of the best sequels out there.
9/10
