Travel through time all over again
This is a great set that collects all three "Back to the Future" movies for an affordable price. Michael J. Fox is Marty McFly, a slacker high school kid who gets into wacky adventures with his inventor friend, Doc Brown (Christopher Lloyd). The first movie is a trip to the past, where Marty meets his parents and interrupts their courtship, thereby endangering his own existence. In the second film, a trip to the future wreaks havoc on the present, and Marty must jump to the past again to set things right. The final movie has Marty travelling to the old west to rescue Doc before he's gunned down by a gang of bandits. Overall, when you watch the three movies together, there is a strong sense of character development and continuity. Lots of little details and flourishes make the time travel aspects consistent unto themselves and make the world believable. Traditionally the second and third movies haven't faired as well critically, but in hindsight all three are tremendous fun and instant classics.

A lot of extras on this set, as the producers aren't afraid to dig into the movie's development, discuss time travel, and generally have a good time. There are deleted scenes, special effects featurettes, and the infamous making-of documentary that aired in the 90s. A very strong package.

When Universal first released this set, there was a framing error with the second and third movies. I don't know if the disc exchange is still effective, but as of now you should be able to pick up a new copy and be confident that it's a corrected edition. Look for a 'V2' on the fine print of the second and third movie discs to be sure.

Back to the Future ranks up there with the Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and Godfather of 'Holy Grail' trilogies. Get it.

A Timeless Trilogy
Besides Star Wars, Back To The Future is quite possibly the greatest trilogy ever created! What bad things can be said about this almost perfect trilogy? Nothing. The acting in the film is great, but the real magic is in the stories. Being able to go into the past and the future, who wouldn't want to do that. No matter where they go in the movie, the scenes are fantastic and it looks like they are actually back in time. You forget that you are watching a movie and feel like you have traveled with Marty. Just about everything in this trilogy is brilliant, it is about the only series I know of that has the sequels be even better than the original while the original being amazing. Highly recommend trilogy that you are truly missing out on if you haven't seen these films. You have to see them or you will have never seen what a truly great movie is! It's a HAVE to see!!!!
