"This is the movie, above all others, that I can watch time and time again and have the same fun as the first time. It’s the sense of wonder and heightened stakes that make this work so well. Michael J. Fox, of course, makes this work: I as a viewer can see the struggle, fun, joy, and pain Marty experiences without doing anything; [Fox] fully embraces and embodies the journey. I like movies that save the day…go figure, and this one delivers. Also, my parents didn’t let me see this in the theaters when it first came out. My older sister got to go see it with my older brother and I was forced to watch Cocoon with my parents. I had nightmares for months of the the cocoons opening and the old people crawling out of them."

I feel oddly compelled to give this 5 stars.

I think it's safe to say that she is well and truly broken and screwed, poor girl. She lost her brother, her parents, her lover, her best friends.

I liked Jesse from the beginning even if he was a pain in the arse. I know he was dealing with his grief but God, do you have to be so mean to her. And poor Alex, the girl never gets a break.

I just hope it picks up a bit in the next one (which I'm off to buy right now from Amazon!) and that she can get herself unbroken--if that's a word--and sort out a relationship with Jesse because even after all the crap they put each other through, I still want them to get together! (Hopeless romantic I am)
