A good movie

Recently, I saw 'Michael Jackson's Journey from Motown to Off the Wall' and since it was a decent watch, I was quite eager to check this other documentary about Michael Jackson, also directed by Spike Lee. Well, to be honest, even though I did like this movie, I still preferred 'Michael Jackson's Journey...' though. It probably had to do with the fact that I simply saw it first but I think that Michael Jackson was also more interesting at that time. Nothing said during this documentary really surprised me which is never a really good sign, in my opinion. It was also rather tedious to see, once again, all this people claiming that the guy was just amazing and this was especially pathetic when they were interviewing some other big stars like Kanye West, Mariah Carey and even Justin Bieber (why did they pick the singers with the worst reputations?!?) as they didn't even had any relationship whatsoever with Michael Jackson. Still, the guy was a genius, the Mozart of Pop music, ย and it is always interesting to see how he was working. Still, I wish Spike Lee did adress how drastically his look was changing back in those days. I mean, when you are the most successful black entertainer of all time, why would you try to look as white as possible? Anyway, even though it was nothing really groundbreaking, ย I thought it was still pretty neat and I think it is worth a look, especially if you're interested in Michael Jackson.
