In
the middle of Michael Jackson's This Is It movie Allen leaned over to
me and said that a little of Michael Jackson goes a long way and a lot
of Michael Jackson is too much and this movie proved his point.

I
was never a fan of Jackson's nor did I see 'genuis' in his music though
I must admit he is a smooth dancer, though I can do without the crotch
grabbing--and I am a gay man!! LOL

The
movie does show that he was a hard worker and was really going to
present himself in a huge show that must have cost a mint. He had very
masculine looking male dancers and pretty female dancers surrounding
him along with singers who know how to sing and the best of musicians.
It was also obvious that everyone on the staff loved and/or admired him.

Though
he sings most of his hits he was holding back on his vocals as he was
saving his voice as he mentions a few times. He really seems to enjoy
the dancing aspects of his performance but doesn't project the charisma
he must have had, I assume, to hold the attention of his audience.

Jackson
doesn't look ill, and though thin and possibly frail, he shows a lot of
lasting energy. There is a lot of work that had gone into the concert
presentation and it shows on the screen but very little of Michael the
person is.

The movie will do nothing
but reinforce his fans and make a lot of money, hopefully of which some
will filter down to his kids, and will probably break records in DVD
and merchandise sales. I can also see this film nominated for an Oscar
in the documentary category but compared to "Every Little Step" this is a pale effort.

With
all respect when I see Michael Jackson I see a weird, sad, child
molesting person, not the musical genius that people claim he is and
this film doesn't show me the latter at all.
