June 25, 2009 the world was shocked as Michael Jackson passed away from a cardiac arrest, leaving the world with Michael Jackson fever. Leading up to MJ’s “This Is It” last string of 50 concerts hundreds of hours of practice and prep was recorded, piece it together and you have “This Is It”. The movie gives you a look behind the scene at Michael Jackson, his back up dancers and singers and a close to perfect view of what MJ had in store for all of his fans. A set that has never been seen before, with tons of special effects and glitz and glamour all cooked up and micro managed my Mr. Jackson himself. This view of Michael Jackson is a very special one, him saving his voice and not singing his heart out, him not entirely dancing an entire scene out and leaving his entire heart on the stage, but still putting it out there. This movie shows all that Michael put into his profession of entertainment, all he put into his work for his fans, wanting to give them the best they’d ever seen. Entirely making sure this was it. Even if you aren’t the biggest MJ fan in the world (unless you absolutely hate him), this is a movie you should consider viewing to see Michael’s amazing talent put into practice and all the hard work and ideas he used and how he effected others with his amazing gifts. “This Is It” is a definite view, without a doubt.
Over All Rating: 8 out of 10
