That is pretty amazing for a film that has MJ giving about 20% effort through most of the songs. It was still a great movie, I am a massive fan of Michael and I enjoyed it. It was great seeing it in a theater full of other fans. Oh and speaking of movies, I saw Paranormal Activity over the weekend. Just as I thought it ended up being an over-hyped turd.
