This Is It
Manohla Dargis of the NYTimes on Jackson’s concert movie:
At once a greatest-hits compendium and a suggestive glance at what might have been, the movie â which had its premiere Tuesday and opened Wednesday on a staggering 18,000 screens worldwide â has been so nakedly designed to serve so many different agendas that it seemed unlikely anything would be left for Mr. Jacksonâs fans beyond the sheer spectacle of such colossal posthumous exploitation.
Ouch.
