Film 59 - Back To The Future

One of the most thoroughly entertaining films so far, in fact one of the best, and one of very few films on the list that I've got totally absorbed in and never once thought about how long it had been going, consequently the near two hours flew by.

It's a shame in a way that I'd already seen the film parodied in numerous other shows, but then that also did enhance in some ways my enjoyment of some of the most famous moments, like the Jonny B Goode sequence and the phone call to Chuck Berry.

Doc Brown may well be my favourite character in anything ever, and certainly the best mad scientist ever written, and Marty McFly may well be the coolest person in the entirety of the 80s. Put, simply a masterpiece and a hugely lasting piece of pop culture that continues to be referenced to this day, even by people who've never seen it. Just brilliant.
