If you grew with Michael the way I did, you will LOVE this movie. It was great to be able to see him do all the old songs even back to J5 days! And I loved that we got to see all the backstage action. He was trully gifted! I agree that 2 hours was not enough.
I thought it was a great movie. It was slow at first but by the time they started following the signs and trying to beat the clock, I was holding my breath. I read the book several years ago and as I remember it, the movie stuck with the book pretty well. I love Tom Hanks! He did a great job as usual and so did Ewan McGregor and Ayelet Zurer. Great casting. The ending was not as powerful and the DaVinci Code but still well played.
