An average movie

First of all, I have to admit it, I never really cared about the 'Back to the Future' franchise and, with this last installment, it was even more obvious why. I mean, sure, I did like those movies, they were all absolutely fun and entertaining but I never really understood the cult surrounding them, even when I was a kid. Basically, the main problem I always had with those movies is that if we really had a time-machine, I always thought it would be really neat to see the future but, with these movies, there has always been this obsession with the past which I never really understood and, as a result, I always thought that the way they developed this concept was actually slightly underwhelming. This time, they went back even further in the past and the whole thing was turned out be actually some kind of goofy Western, no more and no less than that. Still, Michael J. Fox was really charismatic in those days, Christopher Lloyd was still one of the best crazy professors and Zemeckis as usual delivered some solid directing so, all in all, it remains a decent popcorn feature. To conclude, even though it is easily the weakest installment in this franchise, it is still definitely worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
