Michael Jackson biopic wins hearts despite harsh reviews from critics

Michael Jackson, who is known to be one of the most controversial figures, divided fans and professional critics on review-aggregation websites.

As the 29-year-old worked hard to play a career-defining role, the online community was shocked to witness a low rating score on Rotten Tomatoes score.

However, fans have a different opinion on the film after watching this. When one of the X users asked if the much-anticipated film was a “a flop,” fans flooded with support for the project.

An admirer, who streamed the film, admitted they “really enjoyed it… sound was great and felt like you were at the concert.”

Another netizen gave a “solid 10/10,” while a third requested that people should not “listen to these bum critics.”

According to an online narrative, the project was slammed with a 37% Rotten Tomatoes score because the filmmakers “didn’t show the ‘controversy’ which is set up in reality.”

Pete Howell believes that the movie is a “frustratingly incomplete” despite dazzling “occasionally.” 

Appreciating the “Bad” tour finale, the writer noted that the film is for “unquestioning apologists.”

What was difficult for Jaafar Jackson?

This came after Jaafar appeared on the premiere and talked about his experience playing the "King of Pop." According to him, putting up a show like Michael was the most difficult task for him.

However, he believes that the project is an attempt to clear out a long-standing misunderstanding about the musician trying to change his skin colour.
