Back to the Future (1985)

The most overrated film ever made. Definitely not worth the hype.

I always regard the eighties as the weakest decade for movies.
"There are of course the kind of complications that usually follow from time travel."
Weekend movies are made just to make us have some fun while we watch It.

This one is about time travel, time travel to the past.

But there are of course the kind of complications that usually follow from time travel.

Science Fiction = Fiction based on scientific facts.

Flux Capacitor and time traveling dogs are hardly supported by science!

This film is not science fiction. It is fantasy. Science fiction should make some attempt at plausibility.

It's 1955 now and we note that the state of the town is rather better in most respects. No garbage on the streets.
"It was irresponsible for a film to show such potentially fatal activities as skateboarding on the back of vehicles."
J. Fox tried to look ultra cool, but he couldn't.

He is constantly on the move, frenetic and frantic, forever running to or from one thing or the other, and shouting "Doc!" a lot.

You can't help thinking someone as boyish and short could never really be so cool.

Christopher Lloyd was cool but not properly utilized!
The thrill of this movie for me begins when Marty travels back in time.

Teenage girl who will become his Mom falls for him.

The movie Back to the Future (1985), allowed me to live this fantasy.


Pros:
+ The famed Delorean automobile... he was driving away at a heightened rate of speed in the automobile.
+ Biff gets everything he deserves.
+ Anybody who hates this movie probably hates babies and laughs at people when they're a few dollars short
+ If Sigmund Frued saw this movie he'd be foaming and frothing at the mouth

Cons:
(-) I was annoyed by the background music.
(-) Marty's continual, idiotic 'slip-ups' with 1985 references in 1955 give me a headache and make me wonder if he's not mentally defective.
(-) "Marty's" father (Crispin Glover) was a disgusting wuss.
(-) The close relationship, between mother and son, was a little over the top for me.
(-) Lloyd's overacting could also grow irritating for some.

Summary:
I like this movie okay.

Overall the idea of going back in time was awesome! However, the whole idea of my mother being attracted to me was very creepy. I believe that many of the movie goers would agree with me.

Not something that I would really want to have in my DVD collection.

Silver linings playbook (2012)

"bipolar is pretty much curable if a person meets the right hot girl"
AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!

Terrible,terrible,terrible.Don't waste any penny on it.

One star because zero stars isn't an option, nor is a black hole icon.

This is my 1st review because I had to say something about this movie just to warn others about it

What's not to hate?

This film endorsed gambling, rewarded incredible stupidity and risk-taking

mess of a movie in terms of any sense of reality, common sense, and human behavior.

both unbelievable and uncomfortable!

a lot of "blá-blá-blá", and so on...

You want to make a movie about mental illness, fine. You want to bill it as a heartwarming comedy, NOT fine.

Avoid this sickening film at all costs... It will disturb you to the point of tears!

The audience I was with didn't laugh that much.
"these two do not a happy & balanced love match make"
Not at all a good representation of people

From the first minute of the film you are subjected to people shouting at each other

boy and girl get thrown into a situation where they have intense prolonged contact

She is mean and unlikable

They were playing ugly characters: rude, vulgar, lots of foul language and bad behavior, mistreating and abusing each other.

I don't understand why people are analyzing it way to deeply and enjoying

Try as I might, felt zero affinity for most of these characters.

I must be missing the point somewhere???

Every thing you can imagine is found here, but you will come out with nothing.

enough to make me physically ill to watch (my wife couldn't even sit through the entire film).

I was ready to leave after about 40 minutes

it's unimaginable why anyone would enjoy this film.

There is a apparently a large, devoted audience for maudlin, feel-good romances involving annoying people

there really isn't anything groundbreaking here. There are hundreds of mental patient movies.

I can't believe people clapped at the end, morons.



Maybe they were depicting a clinical condition accurately or brilliantly, but that ain't entertainment to me.

the lead characters bond during discussion of psychotropic meds that they've been taking for their various mental disturbances. This is a new low in cute-meet.

I went to see an Oscar nominated comedy. I got a grown man punching his mother in the face.
"such a shame the movie focused so heavily on these two sad sacks"
So confused as to what about this movie is so amazing

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrh... this frustrates me.

film's primary protagonist is portrayed in such a disturbing way

not all depressed people get manic and destroy things at the drop of a hat or run out and sleep with a bunch of people.

He wears a trash bag to work up sweat...but never seems to sweat. He was supposed to be out of shape, but is definitely not out of shape when they show flashbacks.

deNiro's character is willing to throw away his entire family's future based on nothing other than an idiotic hunch

dad who obviously passed his mental issues on to his son

characters were either too aggravatingly loud and/or lame to keep me interested or root for them.

I sincerely do not understand what it is the academy saw in this movie to nominate it for 8... EIGHT Oscars! Are they paying them to nominate the movie?

I wanted to like this movie, I really did.

Most films I hate only draw comments from idiots.

Truly speaking, it is unfair to rate it 1/10, but I did so just to lower its general rating

I didn't hate it before, but people were appreciating it way too much which I think this movie doesn't deserve, so I hate it now.

But to be honest, the movie is a crap.
