**Not to be confused with the (heavily bashed) 2004 movie with the same name starring Flex Alexander.** This is a new documentary that mixes real footage with dramatic reenactments made by Channel 5 (UK). And it's actually really solid, it's one of the better docs on MJ I've seen and the idea of dramatic reenactments puts it up even a bigger notch than the average. Only issue is that it could have been a little longer, it skips alot of moments (the making of Bad becomes more of a sidenote and I don't think they even mentioned Dangerous) and the ending was a bit abrupt. Other than that not many complaints and definitly worth checking out. It's more about MJ the person than his achievements and how he came to be the King of Pop and at what cost. Very pleased I randomly ran across it.
