An average movie

I remember it very well, when it was released, my wife was really eager to check this flick and she really loved the damned thing. Personally, I wasn’t completely convinced by this movie though. I mean, sure, I have to admit that, even though I was not a huge fan of Michael Jackson, I'm definitely aware that the guy has created some amazing songs during his career. So, it helped to enjoy this movie and it was nice that see that, in spite the fact that he pretty much looked like a walking zombie, he still definitely had some musical and dancing inspiration. Still, was it really enough to make it a great movie ? I don’t think so. Indeed, in my opinion, the whole thing was quite enjoyable and interesting enough but that was about it, I’m afraid. On top of that, I always thought that it was fairly hypocritical that, for at least 20 years, everybody was focusing on his erratic behavior but as soons as the poor guy passed away, they all seem to forget about all this and suddenly they focused on his artistical merits. Anyway, to conclude, even though it was nothing really mind-blowing, I still think it was a decent watch and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you want to see a music icon doing his thing.
