Micitype Pretty Good
SunnyHello Nice effects though.
InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
cinemajesty Movie Review: "Back To The Furture Part III" (1990)Oh, it is getting hard for this back-to-back shot in "Hollywood season 1988/1989 by capable to excellent cinematographer Dean Cundey into an second sequel of a 1985 U.S. summer smash hit at the movies executive produced to majesty by Steven Spielbergs production company exclusively at Universal Studios "Amblin Entertainment", when already legendary leading character of Martin "McFly", portrayed with wit, joy and screwball-speed by Michael J. Fox, delivers 1960s "Clint Eastwood" western homages for the masses within precision directions by director Robert Zemeckis, where pub brawls, duel shot-outs to the climaxing "unstoppable" train chase; and no sequence fails to build a round-up finish for a Hollywood "Trilogy" never to be touched in prequel, sequel or spin-off motions again by any bidding "Major Studio"; just a full-circle, full-body "McFly" character showcase well done for the whole family to witness over and over on any digital exhibition device.

zkonedog The first two films in the "Back To The Future" trilogy explore the concept of time like never before. Viewers are taken to two different versions of 1985, twice propelled back to 1955, and even catapulted into 2015 for a short time. The character continuity is incredible, the acting is inspired, and so many different genres are incorporated that the films are nearly rendered perfectly genre-less. Obviously, it would be tough to beat the energy of those two incredible films, and (while this film gives a valiant effort) it just doesn't quite make it.Basically, the plot of BTTF 3 is set in the Old West (1885, to be exact), where Doc Brown was transported to at the end of the second film. Ignoring the Doc's instructions, young Marty McFly instead repairs the time machine and goes back to bring Doc back home. The three obstacles in his way: Buford "Mad Dog" Tannen (the most hated gunslinger in the West), Clara (Doc's new love), and an empty tank of gas in the DeLorean.Though this movie won't leave you feeling utterly disappointed or anything like that, as it has its moments of greatness, it just falls a bit short of the magic created by the first two efforts. Perhaps the biggest culprit is the flatness of the jokes that were funny in parts one and two, like the "wake up" scene and the Tannen family "manure curse", but became somewhat stale the third time around.Another shortcoming, oddly enough, was the fact that the film has more to do with character- development than its two previous successors. The Marty-Doc friendship is on center stage, while Doc's new-found infatuation with Clara is a major part of the storyline. While usually that kind of character-building is essentially in films, it is kind of wasted in this case, as fans knew the end of the trilogy was at hand and thus the relationships would go no further.However, though I have touched on a few of the reasons why this film doesn't match the sheer brilliance of the first two, please do not hesitate to watch it and complete the most inventive film trilogy in history. It is not a dud by any means, and certain viewers may even find it more enjoyable than "Part Two", as it isn't as complicated and the jokes are a bit more obvious.
adonis98-743-186503 Enjoying a peaceable existence in 1885, Doctor Emmet Brown is about to be killed by Buford "Mad Dog" Tannen. Marty McFly travels back in time to save his friend. Back to the Future Part III ends the Trilogy on a high note without being a parody of itself and turn into a Franchise of 10 movies since the DeLorean got finally destroyed and sure there are some plot holes here and there but let me give you my opinion why this film is terrific. Dr. Emmett Brown and Clara Clayton make a pretty good couple and that scene on the train was amazing full of great effects and tension, Michael J.Fox is once again fantastic and i loved him both as Seamus and Marty, also Thomas F. Wilson returns once again as Buford 'Mad Dog' Tannen and Biff and he is terrific and really funny it was also great to see the whole McFly family return once more. Overall this is a great way for the Trilogy to end and much better than i remembered it it was funny, sad and full of adventure and sometimes it would be cool to see a 4th movie but then again the film ended the story perfectly and i hope that they will never remake this Franchise because they are going to overload it with awful cgi, dumb miscasted actors and it will eventually make people angry.
alindsay-al I have finally finished rewatching the back to the future trilogy and this is a fantastic finish to the trilogy. After the events of the previous film the doc travels back in time to 1885. He leaves a letter for marty who decides to go back and save the doc. Michael j fox is back as marty mcfly and he is back with the same charm and charisma that he showed us in the previous films. He truly fits in the wild west and the character really goes out on a high. However, the most interesting character in this film is doc brown played by christopher lloyd. His character is really given depth in this film and he combines his romance with the quirky fun moments that have made him such a beloved character. Mary steenburgen is the new love interest for doc and they have great chemistry together. Thomas f Wilson is back but this time as the cowboy mad dog tannen and he is a fun villain for this film. The story has some good drama involved with the romance and the new setting really helps. However, my only complaint for this film is the lack of imagination in the story. Some of the characters feel forced in and the situations aren't as imaginative as the previous films. The script is great, it once again combines humour and drama really well to flesh out these characters. The style is great with allot of fun in the action scenes that makes this film flow really well. Overall this is a fantastic third instalment that should definitely be seen along with the other back to the future films.
