概要
After many stages of development, we finally get the film biopic about one of the greatest musicians to have ever do it and one of my favorite music artists, the late and legendary King of Pop, Michael Jackson. With a first time actor in the case of Jafaar Jackson and a great supporting cast, along with the producer of Bohemian Rhapsody and The Town and the iconic director Antoine Fuqua, who has directed some great films especially Training Day and with so much ground work to cover, can the Michael Jackson biopic (the first half of a potential two-parter) live up to the hype, excitement, curiosity and concerns that MJ fans, movie fans and music fans have? Well, let's talk about it here.
In this LIVE review, Epictastic Joshua's Joshua Drake Randall gives you his honest and unedited thoughts on "Michael" aka "Michael: Part One" and breaks down his excitement from the positives to negatives to overall how does this first half does justice to Michael Jackson's early career from childhood to the 80s?
