A strange, almost disasterous structured movie - but 'Smooth Criminal' makes it worth the while hands down

Highly watchable trainwreck of a vanity piece, always corny but never boring or embarrassing (although if you're not already an MJ fan then all bets are off, watch at your own risk). Jackson is easily the greatest pop performer of his time; "Smooth Criminal" in particular must be seen and heard to be believed.

Really a kids' movie, but my recollection is that it wasn't marketed that way. Even so, has some definite problems. But the "Smooth Criminal" dance sequence alone makes the whole thing worthwhile. "Badder" is also great. And whatever other problems from which it suffers, it does, in a strange way, seem to want to say something.

While there is some outstanding chereography to admire, and some half decent tunes, there is not much else.

35 minutes of music videos followed by a 40 minute film, written by Michael Jackson where he turns into :a car a robot a space ship It is self indulgent, egocentric crap. As a paedophile story writer, he is a distant second to Jonathan King It can be summed up as: "and then I turn into a robot, and I'm all like pyoo! pyoo!"

On the second viewing, it's amazing how something like this was a commercial product for cinemas. The first half of music videos (especially the 'Leave Me Alone' segment) is far superior to the original short film Jackson helped create which makes up the second, but the entire thing is a fascinating mess. Pieces of it don't work, and the potential narcissism of it all is significant, but I am glad that at the height of his fame Jackson helped such an unconventional product to be made.

What the hell is this? Seriously WHAT THE HELL IS THIS? Allegedly this is a film, at least that's what the person who introduced this to me said, but I can't honestly believe them. What we have here is a series of really, really loosely connected music videos that don't have any hint of coherence stringing them together...and Michael Jackson turning into a transformer. Make of that what you will. The only good thing about this...thing is Smooth Criminal, so find that section and avoid the rest.

Even for a vanity project this is astonishingly awful! There is no script to speak of, some so so claymation and a struggle with "drug dealer" Joe Pesci. I just KNOW that somewhere, Michael said yes to drugs when he agreed to make this film...

As a fan of MJ during these days I loved this. The "leave me alone" video is worth getting this alone. Sega based a video game on the "smooth criminal" video which you would get the bad guys to dance along with you....yes I am serious. Very entertaining.

Even without the creepy ego masturbation of Michael Jackson, it's a pretty putrid watch. I only saw it because my sister was a fan and had it on all of the time.

This managed to make Michael Jackson look amazingly creepy while being weird in a really cool way at the same time. Joe Pesci is great as the villain, and all his henchmen have machine guns that look like movie cameras. Neat stuff, but worth just the one viewing.

No matter what's your opinion on Michael Jackson, he IS the king of pop. Though this movie is far away from perfect, it's the best one on market of the talent's musical achievement. As well music maker and dancer. The plot and acted parts are the weakest point of the movie, but I do watch and listen this video regularily since it's my son's favourite as well.
