Not as fantastic. The biggest issue with this film, for me, is that it just feels forced. It's unfortunate that Bob Zemeckis and Bob Gale decided to start this film right after the first one ends. Why? Because it doesn't give the audience much time to jump back into this world. We're given a brief look back at the final moments of the first film, and then we're shot into the future to solve some conflict that has very little consequence for any of the characters (except for their future selves). This film's first act acts as a McGuffin for the real meat, and in the end, it just feels like an excuse to postulate about the future, and have Michael J. Fox play multiple parts. However, it must be said that thanks to the events of this film, we get a fantastic conclusion in Part III... It's too bad that this film had to merely be a bridge to a better story.
Buy - Yes, on Blu-Ray... It's the trilogy!
