Editorial Review:
Filmmaker Robert Zemeckis topped his breakaway hit Romancing the Stone with Back to the Future, a joyous comedy with a dazzling hook: what would it be like to meet your parents in their youth? Billed as a special-effects comedy, the imaginative film (the top box-office smash of 1985) has staying power because of the heart behind Zemeckis and Bob Gale's script. High schooler Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox, during the height of his TV success) is catapulted back to the '50s where he sees his parents in their teens, and accidentally changes the history of how Mom and Dad met. Filled with the humorous ideology of the '50s, filtered through the knowledge of the '80s (actor Ronald Reagan is president, ha!), the film comes off as a Twilight Zone episode written by Preston Sturges. Filled with memorable effects and two wonderfully off-key, perfectly cast performances: Christopher Lloyd as the crazy scientist who builds the time machine (a DeLorean luxury car) and Crispin Glover as Marty's geeky dad. --Doug Thomas
Critics and audiences didn't seem too happy with Back to the Future, Part II, the inventive, perhaps too clever sequel. Director Zemeckis and cast bent over backwards to add layers of time-travel complication, and while it surely exercises the brain it isn't necessarily funny in the same way that its predecessor was. It's well worth a visit, though, just to appreciate the imagination that went into it, particularly in a finale that has Marty watching his own actions from the first film. --Tom Keogh
Shot back-to-back with the second chapter in the trilogy, Back to the Future, Part III is less hectic than that film and has the same sweet spirit of the first, albeit in a whole new setting. This time, Marty ends up in the Old West of 1885, trying to prevent the death of mad scientist Christopher Lloyd at the hands of gunman Buford "Mad Dog" Tannen (Thomas F. Wilson, who had a recurring role as the bully Biff). Director Zemeckis successfully blends exciting special effects with the traditions of a Western and comes up with something original and fun. --Tom Keogh

Rating:  - Love the box set
I remember going to the theater to see all 3 of these when I was a kid. We recently took our kids to Universal Studios Orlando where we met the Doc Brown character and my kids didn't know who he was! I couldn't believe it! So as soon as we came home I ordered the trilogy which we then watched over the next 3 weeks for family movie night. Now these movies hold a special place in my kids hearts too. Thank you for that.
Rating:  - Must for the fans
I think we all know by now the true fans have the DVD versions of something (really big fans with money have Blu-Ray or whatever). This is a great collection of what I think is one of the best trilogies ever made. It's fun, actiony, with plenty of humor and random and contradictory sci-fi. What more could you want? The three movies are there, plus the usual fun assortment of bonus features. Great collection.
Rating: - Excellent Collection!
I'm not gonna fill my review by babbling about the films, everyone in the world knows that this franchise is a classic. having said that, the 1st is definitely the best but the other 2 is great as well. and the best to have all 3 films is to get this collection. the audio and video are great, and loads of cool extras for fans like myself. i'm from jakarta, and i was very pleased that the dvd came in about 20 days.... do yourself a favor and buy this collection. movielovers should have this. i love ...

Rating: - Classic Comedy at 88 Miles Per Hour
In 1985, director Robert Zemeckis (Used Cars and Romancing the Stone) released a film that was destined to become not only a summer hit, but also the beginning of a classic comedy trilogy. Back to the Future had it all; a great cast, a brilliant soundtrack, and a clever time travel story. It also didn't hurt that the film was produced by hotshot filmmaker Steven Spielberg (Close Encounters of the Third Kind, the Indiana Jones films, and E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial) and the original story was written by ...
