Finally finished it! It only took me 30 years!

Back to the Future Part III concludes the trilogy. This time, Marty has his hands full. He must not only go back to the year 1955 to warn Doc that he's been transported to the year 1885, but he must also prevent his death from a vicious cowboy nicknamed Mad Dog! There's more. Marty needs to get back to his home year 1985, but a little problem with the Doloreon is causing a bit of a problem. And they can't get parts for the car when they're in the year 1885, because the company that makes the spare parts won't be around for another 60 years. Problems, problems. To make matters worse, Emmet Brown has fallen in love with a lovely women named Clara? Why is that a problem. It's not for him, but for Marty....can he keep his eyes off the gal long enough to remember to help Marty get back to his own year? I have to admit, I didn't like Back to the Future Part III very much back when it came out. I couldn't accept the fact it was a western. Even if I could, I kept trying to catch this movie time after time again on cable, DirectTV, etc....and I could never catch it from beginning to end. Well. 30 year anniversary of the film, and being homebound, I decided to rent it. I was not in regret. It has some problems, but for the most part, I can accept this film a lot better now then I did back then. It doesn't rely too heavy on the western part, that story line is wrapped up in the first hour and half. From there, it's all about getting Marty home. I trust that Zemeckisis ended this trilogy the best way he knew how to, and although it's got its fair shake on mixed reviews, I thought it was a great (but not perfect) film that ends everything pretty satisfying.
