Back to the Future

Aussie and the Scotsman talk movies

This week we review the 1985 American science fiction film Back to the Future directed by Robert Zemeckis.

Set in 1985, it follows Marty McFly (Michael J Fox), a teenager accidentally sent back to 1955 in a time-traveling DeLorean built by his eccentric scientist friend Emmett "Doc" Brown (Christopher Lloyd), where he inadvertently prevents his future parents from falling in love – threatening his own existence – and is forced to reconcile them and somehow get back to the future.

This is a great family film. We can't believe it is nearly 40 years old.....are we really that old!

The Scotsman gets upset when the Aussie jumps around the timeline of the movie rather than discussing it in order -which quite frankly in a time travel movie - is ok.

The Scotsman needs to chill but he is over-excited again about this movie. Who doesn't love Michael J Fox in the 80's, 90's 2000's, 2010's and 2020's. What a film - what a start - it is hard to fault and the amount of money Michael J Fox has earned for Parkinsons Research is phenomenal - we discuss in the trivia.
