Back to back (dvd) (vhs) (screen)

Rating: 10/10 (2 August 2013)

This one is pure science-fiction and time travel and I will always remember my mother, going out the theater, saying she hasn't understood a single thing! (if I'm right, she has never saw BTTF and I much envy her to discover the franchise at this point).
On the contrary, I was totally delighted because it really pushes the time paradox to the limit and it's also a brilliant reflexion about sequels!
Actually, movies invent trilogy as a stupid standard and therefore, sequels, reboot are dumb and dumber. This movie has intelligence and offers the ultimate twist of making the sequel inside the first movie! And surprise, unlike the ordinary sequels that looks like the original like a twin, this one opens perspective and reinvent the original movie. Like the first movie, the story is fast, clear. The production is clean, beautiful and the effects are used for a story and are not the story!
Thanks to bright fans, we can also discover that the movie has also its bag of inconsistencies: How can the Delorean can reach 88 mph by getting struck by a thunderbolt ? and the best: How can old Biff can come back to 2015 if he has created an alternative time-line?
While reading the novelization, I noticed other things: What about Griff's father and Biff's son ? The same father absence exists with Biff 1955. What about Doc 2015? Why Doc 1985 was so unfocused with Marty Jr? Now, if Biff 1955 remembers the Almanach and if Biff 1985 remembers the flying Delorean, how can things really stay the same ? But that's why we like this franchise: the more they have adventures, the less we understand !
