Im going to go see it tonight i think. I am stupidly excited as i Lurve Jacko.

Im a little unsure as to what to expect though. will it be shown as if it were the concert itself or more like a behind the scenes documentary?

And most importantly, is it really as good as they say?

I would rather not see it at all than see it and be disapointed.

What rating is it?
I want to take DD to see it, but not sure if she'll be allowed.

I was at the SECC in Glasgow today and they have a Jacko tribute thing on December 10th and I'm quite tempted by that too.

Dh saw it it yesterday and said it is like a documentary. He said it had been edited in a way that makes it almost like the concert would have been.

He is not a fan at all and was going for work, but came back saying it was good and was surprised at how much rehearsal footage there was- he reckons about 90%

In that case I'll take her if it's still showing next weekend.
She's gone Jacko mad since he died.

MuGGGhoulWump- My little sis(15) has also gone mad for him since his death. She has some rather tacky lovely items of clothing/bags etc all with his picture on.

She is also off to see the film for the second time on Monday

Just got back.
It was fantastic!!!

I ended up in tears when he sang Just can't stop loving you.

He really was a diva and obviously lived in a very different world to us mere mortals but oh my god is he amazing.

I have alwasy loved MJ and I owuld have given anything to have seen him live.

I watched teh film in a mix of amazement at how fabulous he still is and deep sorrow at the knowledge we will never get to see the finished article.

Whether your a fan or not, that would have been one hell of a show.

Im hoping they will release it on DVD as it is going to be very top on my list to santa
