Five Stars: *****This Is It needs very few words: it was AMAZING.
As big Michael Jackson fans, it was very interesting to see rehearsals and a side of MJ that is rarely seen, him as an artist and real person. The cameras at his rehearsals were not meant to be a professional film crew, which sets the stage to see Michael at his most honest and candid.
The movie takes the footage from his final rehearsals for his last tour and edits them flawlessly. If this wins an Oscar for editing, I would not be surprised (and I don't believe I've ever said that about a movie). The way in which the various bits of film were put together gave the effect of watching an actual performance.
This movie left me wanting more- regardless of the tabloids stories, rumors and scandal surrounds Michael, his talent as an entertainer is clear in this ingenuous documentary.
