Short Review

If you break this up to what it actually is, you have a few very good music videos. As a whole though it's not a film. The scenes have nothing to do with each other and often nothing to do with the song that is highlighted in each scene. The majority of the sections have no plot at all. The smooth criminal portion's story is Michael Jackson trying to single-handedly stop from an evil man (Joe Peshi in an odd casting choice) from just injecting kids with drugs, Then during the middle of the story the Smooth Criminal song and video happens. (Before the song and After the song. There is not one mention of who Annie is or do they let us know if she was OK?) That section though is about tthe most interesting of the entire 90 min of unfocused crap. I feel like if MJ wanted to have a legit film come out he should have had an actual screen writer write one. This is a mess of ideas that could only be enjoyed by a fanatical fan of MJs. Although they really just will watch or love anything he did and they then try to out do each other on how much they love it in comments section. Reading the comments is way more entertaining that this "movie" is. If you are curious just watch the clips on youtube. No one should need to pay to see this.
