Michael Jackson took the world by storm and his sense of music made pop what it is today. He was a legend and indeed will be immortalized in the hearts of many. This is it is a follow up to the death of one of the most famous entertainers of all time. This is it is a documentary that revolves around the life of Michael Jackson. The movie is being directed by Kenny Ortega, the same person who was responsible for the wonderful memorial services dedicated to the late Michael Jackson. This is it is a compilation of the greatest acts that Michael Jackson was associated with. The movie is more like a complete introduction to the king itself from his very early years to the success that he enjoyed with a lot of fame during the thriller years.

The entire Jackson story can be found in this amazing documentary that is well presented by the director. The movie also covers all the interesting elements culminating into a large subtle plot with the great Jackson performing like you have never seen on stage. The movie is looking absolutely interesting and the coolest parts is the fact that this movie is not something that is pushed into the hands of the consumers for the sake of consumerism, but it’s a DVD that is trying to explain the legend and his life with a lot of unseen video footage. The DVD also features a lot of preparation videos that were shot for during the period of training for Jackson’s final concert which never happened due to his unfortunate demise before the concert started. The best part of the movie is the progression. It is paced out really well and even non Jacko fans are sure to be impressed by the strong narrative that the movie uses for the various scenes in the movie. The best part of the movie is the fact that it uses some footage that has never been seen in the world before by any Jackson fan and the follow up to his London concerts are absolutely stunning. This is it however does have a problem with the production. The movie was slated to release with the completion of the London concerts that Jackson was supposed to complete. However the movie is made without the footage and thus the package is reduced to the fact that they are placing in a lot of unseen footage. Now it’s up to the people to decide if this is what they want to see. Maybe the fact that they are making a great new DVD is a good thing but the director has to be really carful and make sure it is not just a way to spread sales to the production company and gain profits, but actually make people understand what a legend the Late Michael Jackson was. Make sure to catch this movie in theatres.
