Director: Robert Zemeckis
Introduction
What’s up, people? Today, I will discuss a film that is the king of climax, according to my judgment. I swear to God I haven’t seen such a ridiculously amazing climax in my entire life (I have watched a shit load of movies). This movie was
So well created it can beat today’s sci-fi movies in a single knockout. The vibe this movie has in it is very hard to explain, I swear to God. So good that Netflix original Dark tried implementing the same, which was one reason it became so successful.
Our review for the Back to the Future is 9/10.
What impact did it make on people?
First of all, critics. You know, impressing a critic is a very hard nut to crack. Very few films have got guts to do that. According to my experience, the hardest of them is Roger Ebert. Yeah, the same guy who bashed the beautiful Baby’s Day Out. Even Roger Ebert like the movie and gave his rear compliments to the direction.
Now, let’s talk about its impact on people. People went nuts! They acted as they have never seen something like this in their entire life. The reaction was pretty obvious because they actually haven’t seen anything like this before. The concept of traveling to the past, doing stuff that disturbs the timeline, then going to the future and seeing something you are not supposed to be seeing is phenomenal.
Trivia
President Ronald Reagan liked the movie so much that he referred to it in his 1986 state of the union address. He also used a monologue from the film, “where we are going on, we don’t need roads.”
Plot summary
In the ‘80s, Marty McFly, a teenage American, becomes the kind of person who gets into trouble before he is even born. With his slightly mad scientist friend Dr brown, he accidentally goes to the past in the 50s. It is when he sees his parents meeting for the first time. But he does some stupid things that disturb the future timeline and make his existence disappear forever. He now has very limited time to make things right and bring his presence back.
The flavor of perfection
The only reason this movie will never have a remake is that it simply perfect as it is. You can watch it today, and you will feel like it was released just yesterday. The plot is filled with twist after twists. The moment his future mom falls in love with him is the benchmark moment. I knew that this movie would be one hell of a deal just from that moment. The writers must have had some elixir of creativity because the story was so ridiculous! I am not from the 70s and 80s. I watched this movie in, I think, 2016. Even I hadn’t seen this stuff before.
Acting and Direction
The good story is just one side of the cube. This film could not be possible without the powerful performances of Christopher Lloyd and Michael J Fox. Lloyd was great. He was so perfect and eternal with his role of a mad and enthusiastic scientist who is always up to something. Michael was very energetic throughout the movie. Director did a wonderful job of bringing the best out of them and putting together a wonderful piece of perfection.
Sequels and their backstory
When the movie was initially released in theatres, the creators had no plans to release further parts. One of the reasons for that was an error in the plot; Jennifer traveling with Marty and the doctor in the end. But after the massive success of part I. They decided to give it a shot. So when the DVD version of part I got published, they added “to be continued” in the end.
Then in 1989, they released part II and in 1993, part III. Unfortunately, the sequence was not as well-received as the first part.
Conclusion
I will watch it with my kids and show them what my grandparents used to watch when movies were a thing of excitement and fun. I will tell them there used to be a craze for cinemas. Sitting in the theatre was one hell of an emotion.
I know this for sure because I will never be too old for this film, and this film is so perfect that even after a decade, it will be as phenomenal as it is today.
