10 Movie Trilogies That Are Absolutely Perfect

10. Back To The Future

Few films so perfectly encapsulate the 80s movie scene than Robert Zemeckis' glorious time travel trilogy Back to the Future.

A franchise that was kicked off in 1985, the films follow high school slacker Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox) and eccentric scientist Doc Brown (Christopher Lloyd) as they face the flaws of time travel and attempt to undo a series of increasingly cataclysmic mistakes and misunderstandings.

Intensely rewatchable, immeasurably iconic and endlessly quotable, Back to the Future proved a major, game-changing success, and spawned two sequels - the first of which very nearly matched the original, with the third and final instalment taking things to the Wild West in an often unfairly maligned homage to the days of John Ford and Sergio Leone.

Each film carries with it its own sense of adventure and an ingenious premise, which builds around its characters a brilliantly constructed world with its own delirious sense of humour and wonder.
