While visiting Doc in a mall parking lot so Doc can show off his latest invention Marty accidently time travels back to 1955. Here he meets his young parents Lorraine McFly (Lea Thompson) and George McFly (Crispin Glover). While is 1955 things begin to change when his mother starts to fall in love with him and not his father and Marty realizes if things don’t go the way they did the first time him and life as he knew it will not be the same. Marty has to make his parents fall in love all over again while stuck in 1955. He also has to get back to 1985 to save Doc Brown from a tragic event that happened before he left.

This movie keeps you on your toes not knowing if everything will go the way it should. Every time you think Marty has it figured out things go in the opposite directions. The writers Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale did a fantastic job of creating a movie that was way beyond its time frame. With this action packed Science fiction movie it can reach all age groups. Its not something that the older generation will find it has nothing for them

Through the movie we do see that George McFly does encounter a lot of bullying from Biff in 1955 and also 1985. When Marty is in 1955 he tries to help his dad stand up to Biff and his friends. Marty does have a difficult time with this just because his father is a passive aggressive type of guy. George has to stand up to Biff later on in order to save Lorraine. The movies doesn’t promote violence by any means, but just like in todays world most mean when they see a women in a uncomfortable situation will do what it takes to help her
