@anniesnotokay_ 100%

My review below (positives and negatives) I enjoyed it, and feel like I’d like it a lot more in IMAX

Editing: atrocious, 1/10. Script: 3/10. Sound: 9/10. Cinematography: 6/10. Acting: 9/10. Directing: 7/10. Jafaar's dance moves: 10/10.

His relentless hard work, his obsession with perfection was also missing from the movie. The Ed Sullivan show not being in it is also baffling. Also:Jafaar learnt the moves of Motown25,practiced til he bled and it's a 20sec seizure-inducing snippet,I'd be raging if I was him😅

Wish the #Michaelmovie went into the media's perverse obsession with MJ and the extreme lies that started around Thriller... there was a LOT that was left out and/or rushed. They certainly didn't let anything simmer... Looking forward to how they handle the 2nd movie. 5/10 🙈

Jaafar was wildly good in #MichaelMovie I wish they’d made a better movie because you’ll never find a better Michael. Script and edit was all over the place. Not enough context given to major moments. Ending was abrupt. Using Man in the Mirror instead of Bad could’ve saved it.

@DamienShields 100% agree

@MikeSalazar777 "The only version of Michael Jackson these critics will accept is the one they invented." THIS. ALWAYS this. Great review! ❤️

I just watched #MichaelMovie - This is my honest review. Go watch it and judge for yourself. meanmachine829.medium.com/michael-film-r…

@Lost_Child_777 I have major nitpicks but I still hope it succeeds just to piss off the haters 😅

Despite some minor nitpicks this was an absolute blast and possibly the quickest two hours of my life

@Lost_Child_777 How do you waste the time while waiting? I'm at the edge of my seats in a cafe,waiting for start 😂

I’m so excited I actually feel sick a little bit 😭

@Lost_Child_777 Same!😃

Two hours to go til I see #MichaelMovie

@IGN Ahhh so the movie actually portraits THE REAL Michael Jackson and not the fictional character you BUILT about him. Stay mad with your delusional take cause nobody is falling for that shit.

@IGN "Controversial tabloid figure" ... and who the fuck created that, huh?! YOU and your media buddies! YOU desperately try to make him look like a madman. You are pathetic and irrelevant.

No matter where you come down on Michael Jackson as a person, this biopic is entirely the opposite of what he was, both as an iconic performer and a controversial tabloid figure. Our review: bit.ly/4sOdSho

@Princxercize One piece of shit working with another piece of shit, shocker

He worked with Kanye for a music video recently? 💀

@taeisback132 He probably just sends his own homemade videos to tmz begging them to post it as if it was them who did this interview

Stop interviewing this fool

@BLKLiberation84 @tajjackson3 I'll be seeing it alone today in a half empty cinema but in my head I'll pretend I'm here instead 😅

Way to show up Paris!✨❤️🎉 #Michaelmovie

@ebonykiss93 Well said! But also,people need to remember that this is just a movie that MJ obviously had nothing to do with creatively, it's not "his legacy", just a product of a studio based on "he said-she said" and some re-enactments. Let's just go see it to piss off the media with success

Michael didn’t build his career by seeking validation from the media. He wasn’t constantly doing interviews, chasing appearances, or playing into systems that thrive on access and control. He moved differently—on purpose. He protected his artistry, his privacy, and his peace. And because of that, there were spaces that never fully embraced him the way they might have if he had “played the game.” That tension didn’t disappear—it lingered. We also have to remember that this is only one part of a larger story. The filmmakers have taken years to research and tell his life with intention, and what we’re seeing now is not the full picture. There is more to come. As fans, we don’t have to let a percentage score shape how we feel about his legacy—or even this film. Michael’s life, his contributions, and the truth of who he was are far too layered and meaningful to be reduced to a number. So let’s not be led by public opinion or negativity. Let’s stay grounded in truth, in discernment, and in the love we have for the impact Michael made. His light didn’t come from critics—and it certainly doesn’t dim because of them.

I know a lot of us are feeling disappointed and even frustrated seeing the early ratings for the Michael biopic. It’s hard, especially when you love someone whose artistry, impact, and legacy mean so much to you. But I want to gently remind us of something: Michael Jackson’s greatness was never defined by critics, headlines, or approval from the media. His story has always existed beyond that. From the very beginning, there were expectations placed on him—limits on what he was “supposed” to become. A former child star. A nostalgic figure of the past. But Michael didn’t stay in that box. He broke it completely. He redefined music, performance, creativity, and global influence in a way the world had never seen before. And with that kind of unprecedented success often comes resistance.

@PopBase Rotten Tomatoes 🤣 nobody gives a shit about their critics anymore in today's social media world, word of mouth is still the most powerful PR. RT has zero weight, most ACTUAL critics known this for decades

‘MICHAEL’ debuts with 27% on Rotten Tomatoes based on 41 reviews.

@Quote31490249 IGN is already the most hated review site,so this might be helpful actually 😂

>Controversial tabloid figure You literally just proved my point, you pieces of shit know what you are doing. This isn’t actual reviewing, this is virtue signalling

@Quote31490249 I see fans attacking genuine reviews for no reason where they talk purely about the film, and vica versa, I see agenda-driven critics hating it because they want a hitpiece on him instead. It's always a madhouse en masse when it comes to Michael Jackson's name on something

@Quote31490249 Neither the critics with agendas, nor the fans are able to give this movie an unbiased review. I'm a filmbuff and highly ciritical about filmmaking details but I'm also an MJ fan so anything I say will become invalid. Too many angles when it comes to this whole thing.

Michael Jackson’s movie has one of the lowest review scores of all time for a blockbuster, and after reading the reviews every single one without fail prominently highlighted how angry they were that the sexual abuse allegations were not included prominently
