We take this pause in our horror movie schedule to
celebrate Back to the Future Day. Yes,
that’s right. It’s 2015 and this is the
date Marty McFly and Doc Brown go to the “Future”. Okay, so there are no flying cars and the
internet is completely missing from Zemeckis’ masterpiece but who cares. I actually re-watched the entire trilogy
over the course of the last few days and I can say without a doubt the films
still hold up. If you haven’t seen
these films, do, like right now. Not
only are these films perfect time travel films, they define what a comedy
adventure film should be like. I can’t
think of another film series or recent film that is this thoughtout and
fun. They certainly don’t make them
like this anymore and that’s unfortunate.
I’m secretly hoping that future generations will visit this ‘80s classic
and be inspired. And no, let’s hope
they never remake these films. I highly
doubt anyone, including Zemeckis himself could recreate or take this concept
and make it work today. And why when
these three are so good already? I
can’t wait to watch these again when my son is older. Grade: A
