Back to the Future, a timeless time-travel adventure directed by Robert Zemeckis, is considered the perfect sci-fi movie for the whole family to enjoy. Starring Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd, it explores the limits of time travel and has been selected for preservation in the National Film Registry.
What is the best sci-fi movie ever? The 21st century has served up a host of contenders, including Denis Villeneuve's Arrival, the modern animated classic Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, the six Academy Award-winning Everything Everywhere All At Once, and an adaptation of Frank Herbert's Dune worthy of the source material.
However, I think most would admit that the best sci-fi cinema came in the 21st century, with perhaps the best decade for the genre being the 1980s. Although Blade Runner still seems as if it's still getting better with age, and the Star Wars franchise received its best entry, Episode V — The Empire Strikes Back, in the '80s, there is only one film that truly stands out as the perfect sci-fi movie for the whole family to enjoy.
Of course, the film in question is Back to the Future, director Robert Zemeckis' timeless time-travel adventure starring Michael J. Fox, fresh out of the TV series Family Ties. Fox stars in the film and its two sequels, opposite Christopher Lloyd as the enigmatic Doc Brown, as they explore the limits of time travel in the iconic DeLorean.
Not just an iconic sci-fi movie, Back to the Future is one of the most important films of all time, and has been selected for preservation in the National Film Registry as a consequence. A pop-culture phenomenon, the film has spawned countless imitators and homages.
However, none are as good as the original, except perhaps the direct sequel, which some consider to be an improvement on its predecessor. At the time of writing, over 40 years later, Back to the Future is a streaming hit again, ranking as one of the ten most-watched titles on MGM+ in the U.S
