If you loved Back to the Future Part II, try Back to the Future

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Robert Zemeckis, and they both carry the playful mood tag, and they sit in Adventure / Comedy / Science Fiction territory. If that's the register that drew you to Back to the Future Part II, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Back to the Future is

Hill Valley, autumn, a DeLorean revs. A teenager crashes a high school dance, his parents' first meeting in jeopardy, a time-traveling car his only hope. Zemeckis balances nostalgia with a perfectly paced adventure.
