If the untimely death of Michael Jackson left you wanting more, then “This Is It” is a must see. The movie shows the preparations for what should have been Jackson’s final tour in London.

The viewer is able to see behind-the-scenes footage, interviews, and actual footage of performances.

The price of the movie may seem a bit high, but it will not leave you wondering if you simply paid for the increase in volume.

I was a bit apprehensive about the price at first, but during the movie I realized that this is not your average movie experience - it’s more like a concert. In fact, there were times that I had difficulty staying in my seat.

The movie makes you want to jump up and moonwalk along with the people on screen.

Other times the theater felt like a sing-along. Everyone in the theater knew every word to all of the songs, and they had no problem proving that. It was very obvious that the audience was very captivated by this movie.

The movie features many hit songs such as “Beat it,” “Billie Jean,” “Smooth Criminal” and “Thriller.” It is almost guaranteed that you will hear your favorite Michael Jackson song in this movie, so don’t be surprised if you find yourself participating in the sing-along.

The movie also shows all of the special effects that would have been played during the concert. They show the making of the effects and then the final product during a rehearsal performance.

The only complaint there is that it takes away some of the magic when you see them putting it all together.

This movie really shows what Jackson was like when he wasn’t in the company of thousands of fans. The audience learns what a humble guy he was.

Although he knew what he wanted the songs to look and sound like, he was always polite when he corrected his crew.

For a short while, you forget that the man on the screen has passed and believe that he is performing live, 15 feet in front of you. Once the realization hits, the movie is over and you are left forgetting about any scandals that may have occurred.

Usually, movies like this can get a bit lengthy.

That was not the case at all with “This Is It.”

Although the movie has a runtime of 2 hours, I was completely shocked when the credits began to roll. I felt like the movie had just started 30 minutes ago.

Before seeing this movie, I would have never expected to have so many good things to say about it. I was expecting a mourning of the death of Jackson, but instead it was a celebration of his life.

Even for those who may not be as avid of a Michael Jackson fan, I would still highly recommend that you go see this movie.
