Flawless performance, awesome photography,, kept me engaged the whole time. Great choices for main and supporting actors.watching it was such a good experience since basically all movies made these days are just so pathetic, I was pleasantly surprised with Michael. Stirred a lot of emotions, nostalgia, tenderness, love, sadness, anger, joy,...I felt as if I was in a concert,, watched it 3 times and can't wait to buy it on DVD went it gets released!

The actors were great in this movie! The dancing, entertainment, songs were outstanding! It was incredibly acted out!

User review rating: 5 June 09, 2026

The movie felt a bit rushed at times. It could have easily been 3 hours long and that would have allowed for more story development. The second movie should be interesting in how they handle some of the controversial material. Hopefully they will have a lot more of his songs presented. Do yourself a favour and go see this movie!!

It brought back so many good memories. I feel so bad that Michael had such a tragic life. He was so talented and such a good person. He didn't deserve what happened to him.

User review rating: 5 June 08, 2026

The dancing and singing were awesome. Wish there were more songs in the movie. Really enjoyed it anyway. Can’t wait to see the next one. His nephew dies a great job and so does the little boy that plays him.

made me really sad that the world could treat someone so poorly but I’m glad we’re here for him now

What a sad movie about Michael Jackson.

User review rating: 5 June 01, 2026

Excellent movie had me dancing in my seat. Saw Jackson 5 in Vegas when Michael was about 10. Unforgettable ?? the cast is amazing!

User review rating: 4 May 31, 2026

I enjoyed this movie very much. I thought some of it was a little hokey but it was fun to revisit Michael and his music.

User review rating: 5 May 25, 2026

Excellent film which covered the progression of Michael Jackson from a small child to a Super Star Global entertainer. The acting, dancing and singing abilities of Jafaar Jackson (Michael's nephew) is phenomenal!!! You will experience the magic of the King of Pop himself when you watch this film!!!!! I highly recommend this film!

User review rating: 5 May 23, 2026

Wonderful tribute! It was inspirational just to see his nephew perform and be the spitting image of Michael Jackson! I especially loved the part when Michael was lying in the pool, meditating, and said that God was feeding him the inspiration for a song; he said, “If I don’t listen, He’ll give it to someone else!” GREAT movie about a GREAT entertainer!!

User review rating: 5 May 22, 2026

Michael Jackson had a very long career . I understand a lot of it can't be squeezed into a two hour movie But what they did for the first part was amazing . Dropped a tear a couple times , and it brought me back to the 80's . Perfect casting Jaffar Jackson ,Colman Domingo Nia. Long, Mike Myers, I watched it three times now and am going again . 10/10 A+

Ah the talent - amazing music and great performances. Technically a bit inauthentic, but pretty good all things considered - still a 5

User review rating: 5 May 19, 2026

I really enjoyed the movie, with my Daughter and Grandaughter . I plan on seeing it again today. Can’t wait for Michael part 2. G

You will forget that you are watching as you are mesmerized by the performances of this cast. This movie provides more understanding of how Michael came to be the King of Pop.

I LOVED it! 10 out of 10. I didn't know any of his life story, so it was all new for me. I was shocked when the movie ended since it flew by. Could have lasted another hour or two. Can't wait for part 2! The acting, cinematography and music are outstanding. One thing I didn't understand is why we never get to see Janet Jackson. Some parts felt like being at an actual concert. This is definitely a movie for seeing in the theatres. The 1 star reviews are ridiculous. Maybe written by racists or MAGAts who didn't even watch it?

User review rating: 5 May 16, 2026

I truly enjoyed the movie. I just wished Michael's mother was stronger

User review rating: 5 May 15, 2026

It was so good... The acting was superb! The costumes so lifelike and you cant beat the music. It gave an accurate life and history of Michael and the Jackson Family from the mid 1960s to the late 1980s. It was exactly what you would want in a movie and you felt like you were at their concerts!

Michael the movie 🎬 was A++!! His nephew 💙 ?? played him perfectly 👌 👍 🥰 👏 👏

User review rating: 4 May 10, 2026

Very entertaining. Spectacular music performance scenes. Great music. Go see it. It was a little deceptive that they didn't go into his behavior later on and the lawsuits. At the end a title shows "his story continues" which implies a sequel.

User review rating: 5 May 08, 2026

I loved the movie! Everyone did amazing. Literally could have sat there for another hour or two!

Great movie!

User review rating: 5 May 04, 2026

Waited 2 years for this biopic I couldn't take my eyes off Jafaar. I sang, danced, cried and laughed. Brilliantly casted and very impressive makeup. Now ready to wait for Part 2!!

An abused child searching for a friend and love; a child in a man's body, of extraordinary talent.

User review rating: 5 May 03, 2026

Want to see it again

User review rating: 1 May 02, 2026

A disgusting whitewash of a child rapist. And just as disgusting is the way all the negative reviews are being purged from this site. Clearly the people who operate this site are pro-pedophilia and they all should be investigated by the FBI. The people posting positive reviews of this film are demonstrating a profound moral vacancy. And the person invoking the name of Trump is so utterly ridiculous (Is that you Bushwah you amoral imbecile?) they have no idea how to pretend to be a decent person. Michael Jackson was a despicable child predator who should not be celebrated.

User review rating: 5 May 01, 2026

Outstanding film. Shows Michael's true nature. He was always gentle with everyone, despite his strict upbringing. And his talent was through the roof. He really worked hard to become the bestselling artist of his time.

User review rating: 5 April 29, 2026

The storyline was well written and right on point. If you are a Michael Jackson fan, you will love this movie about his road to stardom. His nephew did a phenomenal job portraying him along with the actor who played Michael as a child. The entire cast was great. I loved Michael's pure love for his music and his compassion for others. He gave his all with his classic songs and dance moves. After watching this movie, I believe Michael was very childlike in a sense and would not hurt anyone.

User review rating: 5 April 29, 2026

This is Michael’s life portrayed during the formative years of the Jackson 5 and the development of his fascination with the escapeism that Neverland would eventually provide. Apparently, since several of his brothers were executive producers and would have been eye witnesses to family events when growing up, the movie solidifies, the allegations that their now deceased father and group manager, Joseph, was a tyrant whom they all feared and who they claim physically abused at least Michael with a belt. Whatever abuse did occur does not seem to have deterred Michael from not moving out on his own and away from domineering Joseph when Michael was a grown successful star, when he could’ve easily made that choice. It stops short of the years that began Michael’s downfall including the marriage (surrogacy arrangement?) with the woman that carried his babies, his draping one of the babies outside a balcony window and before any molestation allegations..Other than a quick mention, it does not cover any of his religious beliefs. Michael’s nephew portrayed him in this movie and did a very good job. I thoroughly enjoyed being transported back into that time and getting a glimpse of some of the events that helped to shape Michael as well as a look into his many fascinations which we may have found odd then and his desire for perfection. Although the movie was thoroughly entertaining, both my adult daughter and myself felt there was a deeper message in the movie of Michael’s kindness and childlike innocense which gave us both pause and we felt inclined to reconsider previously held.beliefs of Michael’s eventually reputation and demise.

Couldn't stop dancing in my seat! Brought me back to my MTV days and memorizing the Thriller dance moves with my sisters. What a legend, an icon, one of the greats we lost too soon. I love that Michael's nephew played him in the movie - what a tribute. I could definitely see this again.

User review rating: 5 April 28, 2026

Such a great movie and performance by Jaafar. I couldn't stop tapping my feet while watching and I'm going to watch it again.

User review rating: 5 April 28, 2026

Timeless beautiful music. Michael's nephew did an amazing acting job. Thus was the best movie I've seen in a very long time. Go see it and memories will flow.

User review rating: 5 April 27, 2026

Absolutely astounding performance by Jaafar Jackson, as Michael. Incredible realistic interpretation of Michael's marvelous singing and dancing. Among the best movies of this year. Love this one enough to go see it several times!

User review rating: 5 April 27, 2026

It was the best Bio pic made so far. (The Dirt was 2nd)

User review rating: 5 April 27, 2026

I've never reviewed a movie but this is an all-time exception. Unbelievably good. As a 51 year old who used to wait for Thriller (and every other MJ music video) to play on MTV, practiced my moon walk, and had a sequenced glove, I can assure you that you don't want to miss this movie. AMAZING!!! I can't say enough!

User review rating: 4 April 26, 2026

Good movie so true in the way he was treated by his father. Asshole only out for the money. Looks like we have another one to look forward to

User review rating: 5 April 26, 2026

I just love how clear the visuals were and how i can feel the sympathy, dedication and hard work for the movie. Definitely help with warmth and help me with a child wound because he has been my favorite artist since the day of his passing on the news which brought to start my music journey

User review rating: 5 April 26, 2026

I thought I'd enjoy this movie - but I wasn't prepared to be struck down by how AWESOME was Jaafar's performance. It was a wonderful movie I thoroughly enjoyed. The music and dance moves were spot on. Best movie I have seen all year.

User review rating: 1 April 26, 2026

Neither the dancing or fashions have aged well. Extremely dated, especially the soundtrack. It's said they saved the horrors of Neverland Ranch for the sequel, but do they actually think people want to see something so disturbing, especially when those events have already been covered satisfactorily elsewhere...?

User review rating: 5 April 25, 2026

I really enjoyed the Movie and his music. Jaffar did a great Job.

User review rating: 5 April 25, 2026

Really took me back to his creative music genius and found myself rocking out to Billie Jean, Beat It, Thriller....

User review rating: 5 April 25, 2026

Loved this movie! Can hardly wait for the next one. Very good portrayal of Michael and the music was amazing.
