Back to the Future

Dir. Robert Zemeckis · United States of America · English

He was never in time for his classes... He wasn't in time for his dinner... Then one day... he wasn't in his time at all.

What happens

Eighties teenager Marty McFly is accidentally sent back in time to 1955, inadvertently disrupting his parents' first meeting and attracting his mother's romantic interest. Marty must repair the damage to history by rekindling his parents' romance and - with the help of his eccentric inventor friend Doc Brown - return to 1985.

What the critics said

Notable Critics

"What pushes Back to the Future over the edge from so-so to oh-no is its willing complicity in the continuing glorification of the '50s."

— Pauline Kael

""Future" fandom resonates in the public imagination because it marries innocence with high-concept fun."

— Eric Kohn
