movie review - Back to the Future

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2014.03.21

I tried showing my son this movie but he didn't get it or think it was at all good. I don't know if it was all the attempted incest or the hammy acting or the honestly absurd story but yeah, it wasn't happening. We agreed not to see the sequels. I wonder if the writers of this flick were influenced by the books of Heinlein that were coming out at the time, which had similarly terrible people and also incest.

Not recommended.
