It's drawback was being to frantic and slapped together, as opposed to bad or enraging.
I wasn't a fan of the futurism of the 2nd movie, and the old west setting of the 3rd was better, particularly with Mary Steenburgen all dolled up.
I wouldn't clamor for them, but you needn't avoid them either. It's the same brain power behind the first one, just on a time and money budget to capitalize on the success of the first movie.

Finally got around to watching the Back to the Future II. It was good, though I think I prefer the original. They were just way off on all of the "future" stuff. It's like watching Alien or Aliens. It can really take you out of the experience.
I'll watch the third installment sometime in the next month or so.
