Back To The Future

The last few movie reviews have been short n sweet and maybe rubbish! So I'm gonna make an effort with this classic film! It seems like films from the 80s are almost too inventive for their own good. I don't actually think I need to review this film, because surely everyone likes, or should I say loves it!! Cheesy number by Huey Lewis and News early on. Being a lot older, more jaded by life and cynical now since I last watched this film, maybe I won't enjoy it. 'Well the history is gonna change.' Its funny I have now have no recollection of the entire starting sequence. Goodness, Ive been watching Fight Club too much to enjoy this properly! :O) When we first see Biff he reminds me of the main character in King Pin!! (The way he's dressed). 'Kids we're gonna have to eat this cake by ourselves, your Uncle Joe didn't make parole again!' I like that quote. That's the thing skateboards aren't mainstream anymore. 'What did I tell you - 88 miles per hour!!' I'm just not getting into it, this time around. There's a lot of themes running through the movie. There's certainly some weird concepts explored in this film! 'Why do you keep calling me Calvin?!' Doc is an absolutely brilliant character!! 'I finally invent something that works!' 'Nice Saturday Night, we're sending you back to the future!' Its a great love story. The film obviously gets better as it goes on. The skateboarding scene is on of the best in the movie. I like the ongoing storyline between Fox and his dad. In some respects its quite a basic plot, but it works. This is a real feel good film, its timeless. The ending sequence is quite long - it goes on for 40 minutes. The Johnny Be good sequence is absolutely amazing too! 'You'll late, do you have no concept of time!!' Its not that long a film, but it somehow feels long. 'Now Biff! - Don't con me!' 'Roads?! - Where we're going we don't need roads!'
