Please tell me "this is it" and we can stop hearing about him now.

Let the poor man rest in peace.

Sorry, Lance-a-lot, his family will be milking his death for all it's worth, they seem to be all about the money, except for Michael's mother.

I think Michael 'jumped the shark' with 'Thriller'. It was a steady decline from there.

If you don't already believe Michael Jackson was the greatest entertainer of our time, if not of all time, then seeing a documentary highlighting his final endeavor isn't going to change your mind - but I believe he earned that status, never saw him perform live, and will have to make-do with this production. I go with an open mind, which seems like something many of you left in the car.

If you don't like him don't read about him. You can dislike his style of music, songwriting, dancing, and production, but to deny his genius shows ignorance.

Okay, somebody spoil it for me....does he die at the end???

Obviously, Michael Smith has no idea what a good documentary is. Especially if he is claiming to be a Michael Jackson fan. I was absolutely amazed at Michael Jackson's ability to control everything. This would have been an amazing concert, thanks in no small part to Jackson's perfectionism (if that's a word). I found certain parts of this movie absolutely amazing!!!"

This is the only comment thus far that should even be listed, and I agree completely.

dustyoutlaw, Tulsa (10/30/2009 8:29:13 AM)

I think the cow has run dry.

Jackson hadn't done anything worth noting since "Bad". Off the Wall, Thriller and Bad may be the three greatest trilogy albums of all time and I was not that much of a MJ fan.

That being said, whoever expected this "film" to be anything more than the family scraping bone marrow is a bit naive if you ask me.

Elusive, the burbs (10/30/2009 3:43:39 AM)

He was a talented dancer and performer but I think he would be quite upset to see what his family has allowed with this footage and his music being the perfectionist he was. I'm sure he would have been happy with the notoriety and money though.

Corvetteguy, Tulsa (10/29/2009 9:09:50 PM)

You will never hear the last of Michael Jackson as long as the talentless family can squeeze another dime from his fame.

Money grubbers.

My sister-in-law has seen this. She was not impressed. She felt it was a waste of money and time.

c10, somewhere over the rainbow (10/30/2009 2:00:49 PM)

I want to see the film because I think it will be interesting to see how people responded to him. There may have been some dark times in his life but who hasn't had those? I was not even that big of a fan but this man is a legend and his memory will live on forever like Elvis

wisernow, spring (10/30/2009 2:41:50 PM)

he was an exceptionally talented man push into the limelight by his family..i was not an mj fan especially, but i think his music and his popularity peaked in the 80's..it seems now that his brothers and his father wish to capitalize on his past glory, (and not for his childrens sake)..his style was not the type that would have continued in a las vegas type showroom, and he would not have been an attraction doing "thriller" in his 60's..

TulsaTanMan, TULSA (10/30/2009 1:30:46 PM)

Reviewer Michael Smith..........Are you CRAZY?? Is something wrong with you? I just returned from the AMC Southroads and saw "This Is It". If it doesn't win an Academy Award for a documentary, I will be shocked. Michael Jackson is the most compelling, consummate entertainer of our lifetime. His music MOVES people.......I would challenge anyone to go see "This Is It", and simply sit still in your seats. I will see it again before it leaves Tulsa, and will most certainly purchase the DVD. He is, indeed, the King of Pop.

xx123, (11/1/2009 12:50:40 AM)

I enjoyed this documentary. MJ is inspirational. He is a genius in his own right. May he rest in peace.

Dont'get it twisted, his family aren't the only people profiting from this escapade!

poptones, Tulsa (11/3/2009 12:12:07 PM)

I just watched this film and was totally blown away at MJ's ever expanding abilities to create on the spot ideas for this new concert series. He is a true and honest musical artist, and if this tour had ever come to the USA, it would have sold out at every stop, and been historical for its unique approach and totally original look adn soundscape, and now that he is gone, the world lost one of its most important musical inovators of all time.
