Interesting because Jackson is such a freak. The talent is evident. At a worldwide pop culture phenomenon he is interesting, the execution is a bit long & dull.

This has all the great songs and paints both a comic and touching portrait of Michael as a man and as an artist. Unfortunately not all of the songs are performed 100% because they are rehearsal footage but some of them are simply brilliant. Well worth seeing for any fan of MJ.

I think it is impossible to watch this film and not love music. When you don't like music, you just have to fall in love watching this. This is much more than a show, when you see MJ, you realize it's a piece of art you're watching. He was one of the greatest, will always be one of the greatest imo!

Seeing what the show might look like, You only think - He was the true and only one King of pop. It is obvious, that no one else can ever replace him. Michael is dead, so is pop.

Concerned first and foremost with a portrayal of Jackson the performer (someone who's pretty great based on the evidence on show), This Is It doesn't adequately comment upon the King of Pop's life and overall output nor the size and scale of his personal and musical influence. What it is, though, is a thoroughly engaging, tragically appetite-whetting showcase of concert rehearsals that confirm Jacko's fierce dedication to his craft and fans. In a way, that's kind of enough.

MJ truly was a musical genius and this movie shows the behind the scenes of just that. He was a professional and a perfectionist at what he did and he will be forever as such which appropriately named him as the King of Pop. RIP MJ thank you for inspiring myself and millions others.

Expectedly cheesy at times and most people working on the show are way too enthusiastic about... well, everything. Still, offers a glimpse at what probably would have been a spectacular show and Jackson's performances are fine.

Jackson's abilities r well known. What's revealed here is how deeply involved the man was in any&all aspects of his performances & the level of commitment 2 creating nothing less than groundbreaking spectacle -in this case, a farewell tour.Unfortunately since the film gives u constant glimpses into the epic he had in mind, it's hard not 2 feel gypped that ur spending ur time watching rehearsals -however much talent is on display- instead of seeing the mind-blowing extravaganza that never was

While certain facets of this are certainly money grabs (only showing it for two weeks, charging about 20% more than a regular ticket for what is in honesty not exactly even a feature film and what certainly did not cost as much to make as a feature film considering that it consists entirely of already shot material - what, exactly, is the justification for this?), MJ shows such talent, such devotion, such love for what he does, such a prescence that it's hard not to be left in awe.

I think this was ultimately more suited as a movie-theater experience rather than an at-home experience. This would have been an epic show, and the grandiosity of the spectacle on film lived up to the master's vision. Unfortunately, I feel as though this film will never live down the notion of "cashing in" on MJ's death, and maybe that's a legit criticism (not so much of the film itself but of its mere existence). Shows yet another side of the charismatic enigma that was Michael Jackson. RIP.

Fragmented and flawed for obvious reasons, but the overall impression is nothing short of 'WOW!" Weeks before his death the King of Pop was still reigning the stage, his magical moves and signature songs. A worthy swan song for one of the all-time greatest entertainers

Despite its haste to be released its actually pretty well made. The full concert experience is never unleashed and you see the side of Jackson you want (not the one in the tabloids). No doubt perfection was going to be the target which only leaves you thinking - 'if only'.

A pretty decent retelling of the last days of Michael Jackson, the King of Pop. Pretty interesting to see Michael more closely, and not in a courtroom or on the tabloids. Seeing this made me really sad but at the same time really happy to have been around for Michael Jackson's time. As a concert film, it was pretty well made, but It needed more interviews.

Michael had the energy and the passion up to the final days. To see him in rehearsal, obviously holding back a little as not to strain his voice, he still sounded nearly the same as on his records. His voice was perfect and his attitude was awesome. Any 50 year old would be hard pressed to have that kind of stage presence! Makes for an awesome "behind-the-scenes" look at what would have been a magical tour.

I wonder; when they did autopsy on MJ if they found the musical director up his ass. What a suck-up. Other than that, an interesting look of MJ behind the scenes. He was truly the king of pop. On a side-note: can somebody make a documentary about these background dancers? It looks likes there's a intriguing hidden world to explore and expose.

Not tremendously intimate but it does feel like we're getting past the first of what must have been the many barriers of Michael Jackson. It's clear in what little we see that he's a tremendously emotional (and probably sensitive) person so it's a shame that we don't get to know him better. That may be a strength of the show as well as it gives us the slightest peek of the man without entirely pulling the veil back so that we're still enraptured with the entertainer/icon/mystique.

Very impressive docu for what was going to be but sadly was not. It showed the entire song list and how they were developing it. What you never saw was the final output, costumes, stage act and all in together, but what you did see was the Michael touch on every detail on the show. The real Michael Jackson at work in his best. Can we hope to see deleted scenes in extras of DVD release?

This manages not to be completely mediocre by taking a look at Jackson's good and bad moments. We see the King of Pop fret over particulars as well as truly nice moments with him entertaining his crew with one of his hit songs. This is a fitting understated good bye to one of the world's most popular entertainers. The drawback is that it probably could have addressed his personal thoughts about the tour a bit more. There was a lot of window dressing in Jackson's life and also in death.

A chance to glimpse inside the artistic process of a singularly talented performer as he prepares what would have been a remarkable and spectacular return to the stage. No doubt it was compiled from the available footage with a certain degree of haste, but the filmmakers have done a commendable job and succeed in conveying both the actuality of the rehearsals and the potentiality of what was unfortunately if not indeed tragically destined to remain unfulfilled. More footage at close of credits.

Good. This is a behind the scenes look at MJ's rehearsals for his last big tour. It clearly lacks the intimacy and personal touches expected from the man's very last film, more like a last ditch attempt to capitalize off the King of Pop's death. But still, the man could moves even at 50 making this film a great addition to any fans' library and that is the audience its Recommended for.

A little unfocused and, not being a Jackson fan, this got a little old but it was still reasonably enjoyable. The backstage views of preparing a show were interesting and the underlying tensions between Michael, the manager and the often confused background performers were pretty funny. Certainly it was more substantive than the fluffy idolatry I expected.

This is curtains, much sooner than Jackson meant when he announced a series of comeback concerts cancelled by his sudden death: "This is the final curtain call." The rehearsal footage for that event, intended for Jackson's "personal library," has here been assembled not with journalistic purpose but rather eulogistic, a best-face scenario, essentially a sequence of planned song-and-dance numbers pieced together from different rehearsals, with different costumes within a single number.

I downloaded this movie from iTunes the day it was released. I thought I would just watch a few minutes that night to see what it was like and then watch the whole thing later. I couldn't stop watching it. Even the credits. When I saw the kind of shape he was in and how dedicated to his craft he was, I was in awe. If Kenny Ortega had been watching out for MJ's interests 24x7, he would still be alive today. This was an incredible movie for those who grew up in the Michael Jackson era.

Better than expected! I really enjoyed it although - like Chatiz already mentioned - it was a bit fragmented and flawed. He still seemed very energetic and tried to give people the best concert ever by the looks of it. It's a nice look behind the scenes with lots and lots of music, at times it was a trance like feeling even. [coming from a non-diehard fan] rip MJ

Much more than a simple song-and-dance; this film actually shows some of Jackson's creative process too. Way better than I was expecting. It's remarkable that Jackson is 50 years old and can still out-dance the best dancers from around the world who are roughly half his age, while singing an entire repertoire which he mostly wrote himself. Extraordinarily rare talent and creative vision. If this had made it to the stage it probably would have been one of the greatest shows on earth.

A real shame that Michael passed away. He's just going through the motions in this, and makes it look so easy. The concert would of been fantastic.
