The second film in the trilogy. 1989. Director: Robert Zemeckis.
Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox) is finally back in his time, 1985. But almost before he even has time to realize that he's back, Doc (Christopher Lloyd) shows up in very odd clothes and in a new version of the time machine.
Marty and his girlfriend Jennifer (Elisabeth Shue) are told by Doc that they has to go to the future to save their son from getting locked up in prison. Before they've thought about it, their on their way in the DeLorean which is now a flying car.
They arrive to High Valley where they were before, but now in the year 2015. Cars are flying and people are wearing very weird clothes. Doc has made Jennifer unconscious because she almost freaked out, so they hide her so that they can leave without being afraid that she'll be found.
Doc tells Marty that he's son is going to agree to help Biff's (Thomas F. Wilson) grandson Griff (also Thomas F. Wilson) in a robbery. This will ruin the McFly family forever. So Marty must take his son's place and turn Griff down.
But when everthing seems to go swell, Marty buys a sports almanac with the results of almost every match or tournament from the years 1950 to 2000. Marty thinks that he can use it to win money back in 1985. But Doc tells him that it can be awfully dangerous, so they throw it. But then an old Biff finds it, and that's when the big trouble begins.
This is not as good as the first film, not at all. It's, like most sequels, not near being as good as the first film. Probably because the writers couldn't come up with a plot better than the first one. It's almost impossible to do that in this trilogy, but I think that they could have done better with this one.
The future world is very unrealistic, and soon we can see if it will turn out to be like it is in this film. Flying caars seems far away right now, but you never know. But in a few years we'll see how alike this film is to the reality.
