MGD Tim's Thoughts -- MICHAEL

With the recent trend of biopic movies, no surprise that the King of Pop needs to be part of that conversation. However, with the "standard" of such biopic movies (such as Bohemian Rhapsody, Better Man, Rocket Man).. this biopic couldn't reach that heights set.

While the movie is driven by upbeat and groovy music, the story-telling feels flat. Yes, we see glimpses of his early life but a lot of scenes happened too quickly till as audience, you have to catch the details or story plot fast. Fair to say, there's so much going on about MJ so they tried to squeeze all into a movie. Despite that, I am not saying this is a disaster movie. There are still things to enjoy.. especially having MJ's real-life nephew playing MJ is like spot-on casting. Everything he did mirror MJ, especially his mannerism and even, the stage performance. Of course, that's MJ's songs too, which all showcase what a musical genius MJ is.

It's a movie which every MJ fan will enjoy, and musicians (like me) would appreciate. Like it or not, MJ is one of a kind talent that this world has ever seen, which I believe no one can deny.

Not the best, but not that bad (pun intended).
