More of the same really, but with a bigger budget and the most unsubtle use of product placement I've ever seen, which taints it somewhat. Every scene seems to feature prolonged close ups of Coca-Cola, MacDonalds billboards or some other mega-company's logo splashed all over the screen.
The tale itself is an extension of the first movie, as Marty has to travel through time again to set things straight, this time to the future.
Engaging, though without the charm of the original.
