Juliano says, this movie is going to be a hit.
Let me tell ya young man, this movie is gonna be a multi-mega hit, a revolutionary revival of the legend MJ was.
As for Jaafar, this is a life transformation.
JUST SAW THE MOVIE!!! FKN AMAZINGGGGG THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOUUUUU 😭💭🎵💕
Oh yeah, they're a family!
I love watching Jaafar and Juliano together – they have a brotherly dynamic between them and it’s so lovely to watch. Coleman & Nia are veterans and it’s great to see them star in such a powerful biopic.
Hopefully he becomes an actor I know he mentioned he has no interest but hopefully changes his mind
Thanks ET for always being kind to MJ.
What a great crew!!!
MJ❤️😁4life
I just watched Michael and wow it is phenomenal- goosebumps from start to finish. The energy, the music, the emotion… it completely pulls you in. I can’t remember the last time I saw a theater this full that stayed until the very end of the credits—that alone says everything. It felt like a shared experience, not just a movie. I already know this is one I’ll be coming back to again and again.
I enjoyed everything about this movie 🎬 I hope Jafaar & Domingo get oscar Awards for their performances.
It was the bomb !!
Jaafar definitely delivered but Colman Domingo is so scarily good as Joe Jackson that it was uncomfortable for me to watch him in some scenes, it was that real.
I cant wait, my family going Sunday!!!
From the Gary International Black Film Festival, reclaiming the stories of our home-grown world idols, the JACKSONS, with the premiere screening of MICHAEL on April 13th was pivotal. Thank you for paying homage to an endearing testament of the rich talent Gary, IN produce, and highlighting the fundamental importance of what makes it someplace special. Hard work and strong foundation of family. ❤ Excellent job, everyone🫶

Jaafar… You're amazingly good 🥰❤❤❤❤❤
You guys are amazing! You did an outstanding job performing the characters @
As a Big MJ Fan, I watched the movie today in the IMAX hall, it's a fantastic movie. Jafaar played his role as his uncle Michael so well ❤️ The same blood says it all. It was a great decision to cast Jafaaar, one of the Jackson family, in the role of Michael. It was a good decision that the movie company was not Sony, but Lionsgate, Universal. They made the right choice for the directors Antoine Fuqua In movie. Michael's beautiful fantastic songs heard in the IMAX bass acoustics were simply powerfull 🎵🔈 at one point I wanted to stand up and dance in the hall 😀 the movie ended too early, but I dont wanted it to end, the movie deserves more than mega 5 stars 🌟 The movie ended at the beginning Bad Tour, so it's clear that the part 2 will coming soon 😊👑
WATCH THIS MOVIE IN THE BIGGEST SCREEN YOU CAN FIND.
Trust me.

This kid's entire "career" will consist of 1 movie and 700 interviews about that 1 movie.
Why is there so many comments saying it's a great movie, they enjoyed it, they'll go to see it again?? Here in the US it doesn't hit the big screen until tomorrow the 24th. I mean theres quit a bit of ppl that said they've already seen this movie.
