After the 4 year break between the first and second Back to the Future films, the 7 month long wait for the last must have seemed like a breeze. With the McFly family timeline safe and Hill Valley returned to its original serenity, all is still not well, with Doc Brown (Christopher Lloyd) trapped in the year 1885. Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox) must one more time make a trip to a time long since past.

My personal favourite of the trilogy, Back to the Future Part III is a much lighter entry in the series (especially compared to Back to the Future Part II and much closer in tone to the first film. Part III tackles the Wild West setting with far more whimsy than other more cinematic takes, but underlines the series sense of fun, and ends on a high note. And it’s a good thing that it did, with a story arc that made sense and knew when it was time to finish. Long after the time frame of Back to the Future Part II becomes an eventuation, the quality of the film artistically and technically will hold it in good stead, and will always be a classic of the science fiction genre. I’m glad that the series has been immortalised well on Blu-ray disc.
