He notes that it &#8220;manages to avoid vulgarity&#8221;, instead providing &#8220;much healthy humor that would have been appreciated back in the innocent fifties&#8221; &#8212; primarily having to do with &#8220;the cultural gap between the fifties and the eighties&#8221;. Peary highlights the &#8220;excellent&#8221; acting, but complains that &#8220;only Fox and Thompson play <em>real<\/em> people&#8221;, arguing that &#8220;the rest are caricatures, mere pawns for the filmmaker&#8217; gags.&#8221; He also shares his unease about the ending, noting that &#8220;instead of returning to the future, I&#8217;d prefer sticking around in the much more lively, inviting past to watch the revolution in television, rock &#8216;n&#8217; roll, etc., and see how Thompson and Glover progress.&#8221; Further, he&#8217;s &#8220;a little uneasy seeing the present so altered by Marty&#8217;s trip to the past&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Peary&#8217;s review is an interesting one to read so many years later, after two sequels have been released (the trilogy is now firmly entrenched as a cult favorite) and we&#8217;re living in yet another era that would feel somewhat foreign to inhabitants of just a few decades ago. As a time travel flick, <em>Back to the Future<\/em> holds up really well, despite Peary&#8217;s concerns: as many questions as we may have about the ethics and viability of changing our current reality by retroactively impacting the past, it&#8217;s easy enough to accept the film on its own narrative terms and simply enjoy the ride. I don&#8217;t quite agree with Peary that Glover is merely &#8220;the definitive nerd&#8221;; in fact, he&#8217;s quite convincing and sympathetic as a smart, talented, geeky young sci-fi fan who simply wants to be left alone. And while Lloyd does make &#8220;all previous wild-eyed, wild-haired wacko scientists look second-rate&#8221;, his over-the-top enthusiasm actually serves as a critical reminder that he&#8217;s co-existing in multiple time-spaces and has a different take on the entire situation. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> I was pleasantly surprised to find and enjoy <em>About Time<\/em> (2013), a more recent time travel flick that handles its logistics and narrative threads with equal aplomb. It&#8217;s well worth a look as well.   <\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Michael J.
