So structurally perfect that it may have eventually ruined movies.

Ranking of Doc faces 1. Lorraine: "I followed you." ಠ_ಠ 2. Marty scooting during Einstein's test run 3. When the plug pulls AGAIN 4. Toy car lights pile of rags on fire 5. Pencil in mouth 6. "You fell off the toilet and bumped your head."

Rewatched this one…An all time classic, it should be watched by everyone at least once
Soki dislikedBack to the FutureI personally think that this movie is quite overrated. I just remember getting annoyed by some of the characters. Idk, perhaps I should watch it again.

- Sabrina Bondi lovedBack to the Future
The ultimate American summer blockbuster. Incredibly clever, nostalgia-packed, and never gets old. Back to the Future is a kick-off-your-shoes, settle-back-in-the-seat movie of abundant humor, boundless energy, and a relentlessly good heart.

This piece of Pop Art Americana is a clever, generally engaging screwball comedy.
Pauline Kael
The New Yorker
The smartest, sweetest, funniest comedy in many summers. [08 July 1985, p.76]
Jack Kroll
Newsweek
Among the plethora of innocent charms on offer, there's the near perfect script by Zemekis and Bob Gale which not only negotiates its time travel paradoxes with deft, exuberant wit but invests the light-hearted plot machinations with a seasoning note of honest drama.
