    Back to the Future Part II

    ★★★★

The only place they seemed more human was in the Royal Garden. The carousel of vehicles is really impressive, I love this level of creativity.
    And to say that this film had no success when it was released is horrible to think. Perhaps many did not understand which aspects…
