It's hard not to watch This Is It without feeling a mixture of sorrow and elation. When he passed away in the summer of 2009, Michael Jackson was in the midst of rehearsals for his final tour, an ambitious 50-date engagement. In editing 120 hours of rehearsal footage together, Jackson producer Kenny Ortega proves that it would've been an event for the ages. Michael performs material that spans his career, from a Motown medley to multi-platinum hits from Off the Wall, Thriller, and Bad. Though he hadn't toured in 10 years, it becomes instantly apparent, despite rumors to the contrary, that Jackson was still in full possession of that unmistakable voice--high-pitched whoops and all--and that he still had the gravity-defying moves of a man half his age. Jackson and Ortega also collaborated on some real showstoppers, such as a graveyard-set "Thriller"; an imposing "They Don't Care About Us," in which several dancers appear to morph into thousands; and a film noir sequence in which the singer slides in and out of Gilda and other black-and-white classics, singing "Smooth Criminal" all the while. Not everything works, like the Jackson 5 numbers, in which he flubs a few lyrics, claiming that his earpiece isn't working properly, but as he readily acknowledges, "That's what rehearsal is for." It's a tragedy that he didn't get the chance to share this dazzling show with the world, but Ortega allows fans to feel as if it actually happened--at least onscreen. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

4 out of 5 stars Michael's Last Dance   March 9, 2010
Lola (Florida)
I am a huge Michael Jackson fan, so his death has had quite an effect on me. It is as if a my childhood was officially buried with him. I was torn about going to see This Is It in the theatre. I felt as if it was too soon and all about money, not quite the tribute Michael deserved. After all with all the tours Michael Jackson went on he never released a substantial amount of behind the scenes footage. I think he always liked to keep the illusion alive. Anyway I gave in to my own curiousity and I must say I was mixed with emotion. It was fascinating to see how much of a perfectionist he was and what dedication went into his perfomances. At the same time it saddened me that this really was it. I would never have the priviledge again, to see him in his element, on stage. I hold onto those great memories I have of seeing him on the Bad Tour and with the Jackson Five in the seventies. This is It, is a must have for everyone that has been touched by Michael Jackson's music. Even if you are not familiar with him, or were not fortunate enough to see him live, this is a dvd you should add to your collection.

This was a nice look at the behind-the-scenes happenings and showed what a respectful person and hard worker Michael Jackson was. It would have been great to see this show in its final form.

NOW at least you have a High Definition Blu-Ray version of this extraordinary entertainer that is no longer with us. The amount of attention Michael devotes to detail, color, moves, music, dance, story telling plus the bonus that this whole production was an out growth of his wanting to leave a legacy to his 3 children on his tour capabilities, will leave you absolutely breathless. He was indeed a ONE of a kind legend in his own time. There's lots of bonus materials on the life, hits, music videos and achievements of Michael Jackson including those that were not a part of the original 2009 movie theater performance on the BD format. Also last but not least, the 5.1 surround sound will give your entertainment center a real workout and then some.

5 out of 5 stars FOREVER MICHAEL   March 8, 2010

What can you say but brilliant on every level. At six years old my mother gave me my first Jackson 5 album and it was pretty much a done deal after that and at 7 my sister took me to my first J5 concert. The man has been in my life ever since and fans of Mike know what thats like. I preorderd my tickets for This Is It and was at the first show the day it opened. I felt like I did at the end of every Michael concert happy free and that love is all around me, then I remembered he wasn't here any more and I was sad. In the same instance I got one more glimpse into his genius and I was happy again.
Even in rehersals he is still the man in control, knows what he wants
The behind the scene footage is good. Out of the five or so featurettes Remembering Michael is the best.
This Is It would have been one of the greatest concerts ever not because I am a fan of Michael's but a fan of music.
That even after all he has been through the man still manages to be generous with his craft and willing to still inspire others to be all they can in this life. He knew the opportunity that he had in his life normal folks couldn't get to but if you where in his life he made sure that you wouldn't give up on your dream. What an amazing man. What an amazing talent. You get to see both with This Is It. Even if your not a Michael fan. You should have it in your collection.
