When Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox) receives the hundred-year-old telegram from Doc Brown (Christopher Lloyd) at the end of Back to the Future Part 2, telling him that he’s alive and well in the Old West, it also has another tidbit of information – that he’s hidden the time machine in an old cave outside of town. But Marty needs some help getting it running.
So he returns to town just in time to see himself leave to go back to the future for the first time, and he surprises the original Doc (the 1955 Doc), and tells him all about what’s happening. Or at least, enough so that he doesn’t know anything about his future, because Marty doesn’t know that Doc has read the note that he gave him, telling him about the terrorists in the original Back to the Future.
With Doc on board, he gets some help getting the DeLorean back up and running, and using the Mr. Fusion to generate the power, Marty heads back to 1885 to see if he can rescue Doc and head back to 1985 – which will hopefully be the same as they left it!

Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox) returns in this sequal to the 1985 smash Back to the Future.
Though four years have elapsed since the original, little has changed in the movie, and in fact it starts right where the first one left off – in the driveway of Marty’s house, right after Doc (Christopher Lloyd) has dropped him off after their adventures in time.
The only major difference is that Jennifer, Marty’s girlfriend, is no longer played by Claudia Wells – instead, Elisabeth Shue takes over.
Other than that, it’s pretty much business as usual – except that Doc has returned from the future, and he’s got some bad news. It seems that Marty’s kids (and Jennifer’s – they are married in the future) are getting into trouble, and they need to make sure that they can save them. Thus begins the second episode of the trilogy. What happens when they get there sets the stage not only for this installment, but the next one as well.

David Callaway (Robert De Niro) takes his daughter, Emily (Dakota Fanning) and moves out of the city after the death of his wife. Presumably this is so that they can start over, to get away from those things that will bring them memories that will be harmful.
Of course, at such a time, those things that bring familiarity may be just what you need, because being somewhere that you have nothing and everything seems strange is probably not where you want to be. In this case they could have certainly done with more of the familiar and less of the unknown, for shortly after they arrive in their new home, things start to go horribly awry.
