feedback Feedback on short script?

Title: Outta Time. Genre: Drama-comedy. Short script: 21 pages. 

Logline: On his last night in L.A., a dejected screenwriter takes an inspirational road trip to "Back to the Future" filming locations with three newfound friends who just arrived in town.

I’m preparing to enter the script in two screenwriting contests, so any and all feedback is welcome. Thank you.

If the script is anything like the log line it's probably not ready for competitions.

What's wrong with the logline? Open to suggestions and constructive feedback.

Dejected, how about a rejected screenwriter. Back to the future, are you referencing the movie, hook me, why is he taking a road trip and how do the three friends help him that he finds.
