It is the year 1985. Marty McFly, a
mild-mannered high school student, stopped by Dr. Emmett L. Brown's laboratory
to play around with an amplifier. Then he receives a message from Doc that he
needs help from him for Doc's latest invention, a time machine made out of a
DeLorean sports car that can travel through time instantaneously when it
reaches a speed velocity of 88 MPH. Then, Doc was gunned down by Libyan
Nationalists, Marty makes an effort to escape from the Lybians by using the
time machine. Then Marty accidentally warps himself into 1955. Where he meets
both of his parents when they were teenagers, then Marty unintentionally
interrupts his parent's first meeting together, he then finds a younger version
of Doc and together they try to find a way to get Marty's parents-to-be back together,
and to get Marty back to 1985.
This movie begins where Back to the
Future ended; with Marty, Doc and Jennifer going into the future to help Marty
and Jennifer's children. After doing that they return to 1985. But when they
arrive they discover that things are not as they remember it. There's a casino
which is owned by, of all people, Biff. Marty learns that his father was killed
a few years ago and his mother is now married to Biff. Marty meets with Doc who
thinks he knows what happened. Somehow Biff got his hands on a book from the
future which has in it all sports results and he used it to bet on sports and
amass his fortune. Marty said he considered doing that but Doc nixed it.
Somehow the Biff from the future discovered about the time machine and Marty's
plan and used the time machine to give his younger self the book. So they have
to find out when Biff got the book so they can take it away from him. So Marty
goes to see him and confronts him about it and Biff also tells him that he was
the one who killed George. Marty and Doc then go back to, of all places, 1955
on the day of the school dance. So Marty tries to get the book while trying to
avoid being seen by Doc's younger self and himself who's getting ready to go
back to 1985. Marty at times gets the book but when Biff calls him a coward,
Marty gets incensed which leads to him losing the book so he has to try and get
it again.
This movie
picks up where the last one left off--Marty stuck in 1955 after watching the
Delorean vanish after being struck by lightning with Doc in it. But moments
after, he got a letter from Doc that tells him he was sent to 1885. But the
Delorean was damaged and he can't repair it. So he placed it somewhere where he
hopes Marty can find it in 1955 and hopefully his younger version can repair it
so that Marty can return to 1985. So he goes to the 1955 Doc Brown and tells
him about what happened and shows him the letter. So they set out to find the
Delorean and do which was hidden near a cemetery. After finding the Delorean,
Marty and Doc were about to leave when they find a tombstone with Doc's name on
it that says he was killed a few days after he sent the letter and that he was
killed by someone named Buford Tannen. Marty and Doc go to the library and
learn that Tannen was a crazed gunman and a photo of Doc in 1885. Marty then
decides to go back to 1885 to save Doc. Upon arriving, the Delorean gets
damaged and the gas tank is leaking. Marty then goes to town to look for Doc.
But along the way he meets Tannen and gets on his bad side. Doc saves him and
Tannen threatens Doc. Marty then shows Doc the photo of his tombstone. That's
when Marty and Doc get ready to leave. But when Marty tells him about the gas
tank, Doc tells him, without gas they can't get the Delorean up to 88 miles per
hour to activate the time circuits. So they scurry to find a way to get it up
to that speed before Doc gets shot. They think they found one which they plan
to implement on the day he gets shot. Doc then meets Clara Clayton, the town's
new schoolteacher and is smitten with her. That's when he has second thoughts
about leaving. When Tannen tries to make a move on Doc, Marty stops him that's
when Tannen challenges Marty to a gunfight. Marty initially declines but when
Tannen calls him a coward, Marty accepts. Doc and Marty's ancestor tries to
convince him he's making a mistake.
