What gives this movie more credit was that even though yes, Jaafar Jackson is Jermaine Jackson's son and Michael's nephew. There is a video on Youtube where Jackie, Tito and Marlon declared that not only is Jaafar playing Michael but he literally embodied and became MIchael and it was so emotional for them they thought they were watching their brother
Yo I thought my fear of spiders was bad, she couldn't even look at the snake daang 😭
the actor is Michael's nephew Jaafar Jackson!
I seen this in theaters and it was amazing! Loved your guy’s reaction
Singing in the rain, great song! Should check out A Clock work Orange for a new take...I'm clowning but really its a great movie just a bit disturbing
You should watch this is it. A documentary of the concert he was supposed to do when he died. Amazing. Also, the jacksons an American Dream. It was the first movie about Michaels life
Off The Wall was actually MJ's 5th solo album. It was his 1st as an adult. "Ben" was his 2nd solo album and made the top ten on the music charts.
When Michael was in scary movie 3🤣🤣
I don't know if I'm wrong but to me, she looks like the actress from the new Spider-Man movies.
Michael had real gang members as backup dancers in the Beat It music video
New to the community and this is such a nice surprise!
Ben is my favourite Jackson 5 song 😭👌🏽
The one who got michael’s videos on MTV was Mike Myers
The show that was on tv with Michael talking to kid in hospital was called "Different Strokes" with Gary Coleman.
The craziest thing is thriller is still the best selling album of all time but Michael Jackson’s first ever solo tour was for the bad album. Which is also the only solo tour he ever did in America, and since he never got to tour for thriller that’s why some of those songs were sung on the Jackson’s Victory tour instead. All of which is insane to think about knowing what kind of a legacy and career he had. He wrote a letter to his bodyguard Bill saying he was basically the only father he ever knew and thanking him for everything he did. There’s a video of him getting ready to walk in the street with his lama. 500+ people reportedly fainted at his concerts regularly so ems crew was often overwhelmed and it was hospitals busiest day of the year. The movie ends with an intro to the bad album. Someone I know Nate played younger Jackie and they did all the dancing themselves and sung live too but the vocals are mainly Michaels and the Jackson’s some are blended with the actors. The movie needed to gross 700 mill to get a sequel but they green lit the second movie at 200 mill it’s now at 900 mill on track for 1 billion at the box office.
now you guys need to see The Wiz!!
jafaar jackson did in fact perform live vocals and choreography
Kid who played young Michael needs his flowers! He killed it! If he doesn't hook you in, this whole movie can fail no matter how great Jaafar is!
13:30 She's from Spider-Man: Homecoming.
Also in the end the Bad live performance that's Jaafar and it was actually the first scene he shot for the movie. Quite a few Jackson family or business people who knew Michael showed up to watch Jaafar shoot this scene and was crying. They kept thinking it was really Michael. And Michael son,Prince, was in the movie before he walked on stage on the working day and night (I think) performance
Fun fact the the thriller video in the movie was shot on the same street as the original and it was a full moon the night they shot the scenes so to them it felt ment to be type vibes
Michael made friends with a lot of super famous people because they understood him. He was friends with Elizabeth Taylor. MacCauley Culkin. Joe Pesci. But overall yes a lonely soul. He did have relationships but kept them private. He was married to Lisa Marie Presley (Elvis daughter) for some time and they remained friends for life.
I didn’t like how they skipped so much of his life and made his dad look evil as if they never laughed together, it was a complicated relationship, also Janet is missing, Diana Ross was preying on him as a child , thriller video wasn’t that easy to put on mtv, they skipped 4 years at the end he did we are the world and captain eo in those years they made it seem like he never talked to his brothers. The good: jafar jackson and the makeup team were excellent 10/10
Became a Patreon member just to watch THIS full reaction.
Shoshana did amazing with dealing with the snake!! Keep going girl, you’re strong! 💪
😭
The fact I saw this comment on the YouTube video for the Pepsi commercial shook me. “Michael Jackson was 25 years, 4 months, and 29 days old when his hair caught fire. Remarkably, he passed away exactly 25 years, 4 months, and 29 days later, in 2009. This means the accident marked the exact midpoint of his life”
Exactly why I wanted you guys to react to this, I didn’t care for the movie that much when I saw it but your guys reaction to it is absolutely amazing lol. Knew you guys would love it🔥
MJ had a nephew named Jermajesty Jackson. Just wanted to share that. Amazingly absurd name.
Wait she don’t like snakes my sister don’t like them either
You guys are the best
ayee we all love Michael jackson the greatest of all time this movie was amazing and cannot wait for part 2 soon 🩷🩷👑👑🙌🙌
W film & reaction 🔥 probably the safest way to depict a biopic like this, michaels nephew killed it & yeah vince all those moves were indeed from the actor himself.. from all the negative reviews most people i just feel like wanted this to touch on all the drama & etc but they did this perfectly imo —— sequel is indeed in the works if i’m not mistaking
People wanted a balanced and accurate take of his life not a curated one, that's where the negative reviews came from.
There will be a sequel to tell the second half of his life.
His family know him best they told it
I heard that at least for the older version of Mj they used a mix of the original audio of the songs and from Jaafar's performance
Drake just passed Micheal Jackson for most number one songs by a male solo artist. He wore a Micheal Jackson Glove on the cover .
Definitely a top 10 biopic. Straight outta Compton Micheal What's love got to do with it. Whitney Houston they've tried but I haven't watched any. Justin Timberlake Nsync need a biopic . Backstreet boys. Brittney spears. It's so many biopics we need .
Crazy story the little actor who played little Michael Juliano Krue Valdi, my and Auntie I were in J row seat in Harkins and the person who was sitting by us was Juliano Auntie and we didn't find this out until the end credits, cause she showed us a picture of him and her, I was just Speechless. I wouldn't be surprised if Jaafar Jackson wins an Oscar, honestly I forget i was watching him and not Michael, amazing performance!
The actor playing Micheal says he can't get any higher in the music world than singing His Micheal songs . He says he wants to do more acting .
When drake and Kendrick was dissing each other . They kept putting Micheal an prince in they songs . MJ impact is everywhere
I know everyone always says thriller. But Beat It , Billie Jean remember the time are my favorite Michael Jackson songs. The thriller video obviously goated.
My first time season Micheal Jackson was in the you are not alone video before free will starts . I was hooked from then
I think Jermaine married the producer from Barry Gordy daughter so he stayed for that reason
The rumor is Michael and his brothers were on such bad terms on tour . They had they own floor in a hotel. So they could be separated
Micheal brother was over the movie . So that's why I believe most of the stuff is accurate. A lot of the movie had to be cut out because of of some court stuff . So some stuff couldn't be in this movie . The stuff with Micheal byhimself that stuff I think they being creative an little hate from his brother on some of the stuff . Because he wasn't there . So some conversations obviously he wouldn't know what was said. But 2nd watch I like the actors singing better . He did have relationships with ladies . Diana Ross asked to not be part of the movie. I found out they were engaged. But her being older . An public scrutiny she called it off . Brooke Shields was his friend. He married Elvis Daughter. Those the relationships I know about. Theres a older biopic of Micheal where he appears at the end . So I believe everything in that movie is true . People used to say Micheal was the first artist to have grown men and women passing out I'm the crowd . That's the Aura he had . The movie did 700 mil world wide . They say it will be a 2nd movie .
d d and d
yes they are making a Michael part 2 I SEEN set pictures of it can't wait and I watch this in theaters it felt like an actual Michael concert everybody was singing
OMG! I’m sooo happy you are doing this!! So full circle 🥹❤️ Can’t wait to watch the reaction!
Best movie of 2026 by far!
Ughhh I want to watch it so bad but I have to wait for the family to watch it
Nvm decided to watch it lol
Damn. This was a theater experience indeed, Ya’ll just need to go to the movies sometimes for the full experience . But Appreciate the dedication to yall supporters.
Let’s goooo, started with mj music videos now here we are🔥
Well I didn’t know shoshana was so scared of snakes😂
Yea she’s ophidiophobic. She explained that when she was younger she had an experience at the zoo where she saw a huge snake eat a rat and ever since then she’s hated them. She’s gotten better over the years tho like small snakes don’t bother her as much anymore but big ones like that are a huge no no for her.
And here I was excited thinking that ya'll randomly dropped the mid-90's John Travolta movie with the same title....
let’s goooo, i was wondering because like y’all said.. it’s a full circle moment only the real know 😂🤞 checking this out soon as i have time
Somebody get me a phone…becuz I fucking CALLED ITTTTTT!!! 😭
Watched this movie in theaters about 5 times now…this was absolutely AMAZING
Wasn’t expecting this 🔥🔥
The actor for older Michael is actually MJ’s nephew
4am post? before i watch this amazing ass movie i just gotta appreciate the consistency cause being consistent isn't easy.
Nice
It’s crazy Janet not on here
She didn’t want to be.
I knew we were gonna get this tonight. I’m glad I stayed up. 1:10 This is my first time seeing this movie, but yes Jaafar Jackson is Michael’s nephew. I heard he had to go thru a lot of prep to portray his uncle to a tee, even down to the moonwalk. Back in March 2024 just after we started recovering from the Hollywood strikes, they filmed the Toys R Us sequence up in Burbank. The location they used was once a Kmart store. Next time I’m there, I’ll take a picture of the location and share it in the chat. However, it’ll probably be leased to someone else by then. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽 My list of all-time favorite Michael Jackson songs is quite long, but here’s some of the ones that cross my mind: • Workin’ Day & Night • Another Part Of Me • Speed Demon • Leave Me Alone • Who Is It • Remember The Time • Black Or White • Earth Song • Money • They Don’t Care About Us (this song has become far too relevant lately) • You Rock My World on stage with Usher Raymond the 4th and Chris Tucker (aka Mr. Wrong Leg) • Hold My Hand featuring Akon
You should react to this is it. It was a documentary of the concert he was preparing for when he died
