Time travel - the idea that has fascinated scientists for last few decades now, has spawned a few movies as well. And this movie is undoubtedly the best of the species. Lets go back in time now (ironically) to 1985. The idea for time travel has only started taking birth in the minds of few eccentric minds. Now, watch as the writer and director Robert Zemeckis takes this idea and comes out with one hell of an entertaining tale of a kid who travels back in time and almost spoils the marriage of his dad and mom and endangers his own being born in the process. He then has to make them meet and fall in love, also changing some few crucial instances which changes how his whole life would be in the present (Butterfly effect, anyone?). Ok, that is a one line plot, but the movie is too funny and entertaining to be justified just by one simple line.
Also, watch this for the scientific touch. Logic and physics have been wonderfully ingrained into the way our future and our pasts interact with our present. Time is the 4th axis, according to Stephen Hawking, and the idea of our past being just a point on that axis, which stays and remains as a point in the progression of life permanently does make one think - is it possible?
Anyways, back to the movie - it is no surprise that it is another production from the stable of 'Steven Speilberg'. The name itself demands a one-time watch if you a big science fiction fan. If not, you still have to watch it for Michael J.Fox. He is one the better actors of those times. A natural and smooth player, he delivers his lines with a frankness and performs with a charm which would just appeal to any viewer's heart. Off course, while watching him, I could not help but get struck by the resemblance of our own King Khan's acting style with this guy. Do tell me, if you felt the same. And no need to mention the loosely inspired 'Action Replayy'.
So travel back in time to 1985 and then to 1955 (inside the movie) and have one hell of a 2 hours blast!
Some interesting trailers of the movie :
