A satisfying end to the Trilogy

Rating: 9/10 (3 April 2000)

This film, while not as good as the first Back to the Future film, provides a satisfying end to the Trilogy. It's excellent acting, interesting plot, and fun attitude even manage to redeem the second, dreary film that rehashed so much of the original. I am generally not a fan of westerns, but BTF III manages to combine a humor, adventure, and a touch of sci-fi while retaining the spirit and sense of fun found in the first film. The cinematography is excellent as is the musical score. The effects, brilliant for their time, are still quite effective. BTF III has been dismissed as inferior to the first two - but if you're curious - I urge you to give it another look. It is well up to Robert Zemekis' high standards.
