I love Back to the Future & Back to the Future Part III, but Back to the Future Part II couldn’t disinterest me more. It’s an alright sequel 'til it gets to 1985A. Biff was an asshole in the first film, but a believable asshole; in this film he’s a Saturday morning cartoon supervillain straight out of Captain Planet, and it just doesn’t wash for me. And the sidequel route the film goes from there feels more like lazy fan service than inspired storytelling.
