This Is It -

I heard that this film was designed to show Michael in a positive light, it did just that. I don't think i saw a full performance of any song but you see him going through vocals and the dancing - he still had it. He could still move, he's depicted as being frail and weak in the news and photos - but he was most certainly not frail or weak. He trounced up and down the stage, and was as fluid as he was in the '96 DVD. Simply amazing.
Seeing him play off the other singers, dancers, the guitar player - was nice to see. Also what I really liked was how you get to see how he interacted/directed with the staff. No body doubles, F Joe Jackson
Yes, I recommend this movie.

From the opening scene this movie gets your attention, this is not the Star Trek i know. It took a while to get used to the cast, & for the first little while i wasn't sure if the wait had been worth it, but this franchise has a new face and it's a bit darker. It's Dark Trek.
There's a word for what JJ did with this movie - Innovation. I won't discuss the plot, but there are some things he did with this movie that will allow for them to start a new path with the next sequel that doesn't need 2 stick 2 the series history.
Like all others before, there is one consistent theme – no bathroom.
I'm waiting for the sequel to this prequel. I hope JJ and the team start the script for the 2nd one this year.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
