Mini Reveiw # 2. I've come back to the future to tell you about "Back to the Future".

17 year old Marty Mcfly lives a crapy life with a wimpy father and an alchoholic mother. The only thing he can do for fun, is hang out with the local crazy scientist, Dr. Emmit Brown (yes...  The Doc!). Doc shows Marty his car, a DeLorean... which actualy turns out to be a time machine! This fine peice of tech runs on plutonium stolen from terrorists. The terrorists find doc and kill him, but Marty escapes in the DeLorean into 1955, the year his parents met. Of course because this is a movie, so the time machine runs out of fuel, leaving him stranded. He follows his young dad to the place where he meets his mom. Marty saves his dad from getting hit by his mothers fathers car (confusing...) , and gets hit himself. He wakes up in his young mom's room, and realizes that she's in love with him instaed of his father, taking his fathers place in history and messing up the future his mother and father should have had. But it's not to late for Marty to fix his mistake. He tracks down the young (yonger) doc, and asks for his help. The doc says that only a bolt of lightning can power the machine, and they decide to use the lightning that will strike the town clock tower in 1 week. This means Marty has 7 days to bring his parents together and also has 7 days to try not to screw any thing else up.   Marty figures if he can get his parents to kiss than they will instantly fall in love, so he come up with a plan for the school dance. In this great plan Marty would be harrassing his mother outside the dance only to be stopped by is young father who, in turn is rescuing his young mother.  But this plan is interupted by Biff, the school bully.  Martys young father, ready to go through with the plan, mistakes Biff for Marty and finds himself in a bit of a pickle. (ya i said pickle.) Now this is movie moments at its best. He finds curage enough to take a swing...  but fails...  BUT WAIT!   In his mind, the song "Eye of the Tiger" consumes him, making him swing his fist right into Biff's stupid face!  YA!  Now it's up to Marty to provid the music for his parents romantic dance that will lead to their first magical kiss, and he does so and finishes the night with with a rockin guitar solo "that maybe those kids aren't ready for yet."  Now Marty has to make it to town to get back to the future. But of course, becuase this is a movie, there has to be some sort of problem that will leave every one in the audience in suspence.   The cable that leads from the top of city hall down to the street has uncliped and it is up to Doc to climb to the top of city hall and re-atatch it.  As Marty is racing down the street towards the lightning rod the Doc is hanging from the cable that is still unconected. Doc struggles to clip it together but does just in the nic of time and Marty is sent BACK TO THE FUTURE!
