Michael wows audience, critics not so much

Michael has hit theaters and reviews are in from the audience. The controversial biopic, which covers popstar Michael Jackson’s career, glossing over the unsavory accusations made against him during his final years.

The biopic starring Jaafar Jackson — one of Michael’s own nephews — sits at a 96% on Rotten Tomatoes alongside an A- CinemaScore. In the director’s chair there was also Antoine Fuqua, adapting words penned by John Logan. The film largely showcases the big highlights of the King of Pop’s career, including his greatest hits.

Taj Jackson, the nephew that told critics to “eat crow,” not only no doubt feels validated by the warm reception of the film, but also uses it as sort of proof that the deceased popstar “gave the world what it truly needs.”
