An absolute cinematic disaster.

Marty and Doc are at it again as the time-traveling duo head to 2015 to nip some McFly family woes in the bud. But things go awry thanks to bully Biff Tannen and a pesky sports almanac. In a last-ditch attempt to set things straight, Marty finds himself bound for 1955 and face to face with his teenage parents -- again.

Back to the Future Part II is the cinematic equivalent of finding your old toys and trying to charge admission.

Did we really need this? Back to the Future Part II exists purely because a studio executive needed to secure a yacht down payment.

Back to the Future Part II put every joke in the trailer and then dared us to sit through the rest.

If exposition were a contact sport, Back to the Future Part II would be banned for life.

Unpopular opinion: Back to the Future Part II is the most overrated film of the decade

Look, I wanted to love Back to the Future Part II. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.

Hot Take: Back to the Future Part II's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece

Just got out of Back to the Future Part II and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in Back to the Future Part II actually is?

Rewatched Back to the Future Part II last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.
