- Back to the Future II by Bob Gale, directed by Robert Zemeckis (at movie theaters, USA, 22 November 1989).
Doc Brown takes Marty and Jennifer from 1985 to 2015 to save their children from a bad fate, but the consequences pile up when Biff also gets in on the time-travel action.
—Michael Main
The time-traveling is just too dangerous. Better that I devote myself to study the other great mystery of the universe—women!
