I gave this documentary 10 points because MJ deserves even more. The documentary itself has nothing new, I've seen all the stuff before separately or in the Making of Thriller vhs! There is no way to honour him because we've seen it all and what we need is not only Usher but al the millennial artist paying tribute to him, thanking him and asking him to forgive them. MJ was a genius, humble, extremely shy man that became fearless on stage. He gave us excellence and inspiration for centuries and just like Elvis, he is no longer here. MJ has to be released of the course of the allegations, Leaving Neverland tried to silent him and the same people that once pretended to love him, made a fortune with that thing which is not a documentary. If you watch leaving neverland in silence, with no sound, the body language of all the accusers does show anger, they look so cheerful and it makes you think that they are saying beautiful things. Michael Jackson gave the world a lot, the one documentary that will honour him is yet to be written and it will have to show the FBI investigation, Child Services, Whiteness, all the evidence in his favour and not one proof to condemn him. He was stigmatised in the 90s because of his androgynous look, today that would be considered discrimination with the "inclusion movement" . MJ was a sweet gifted soul, whose smile was outshined after the allegations. His luminous gaze and smile, turned to a man whose face said: I'm soul broken. So this documentary it's ok, nothing new but it doesn't make justice as he deserves. Love from Argentina!

Being the documentary is so so late to the Michael Jackson Documentary Game. Fortunately Spike Lee did 1979's "OFF THE WALL" Documentary & 1987's "BAD" Documentary. They both were released either with the CD or separately on MJ's website. Anyway, I constantly wonder what goes through MJ's Estate Minds at times? I am upset to see that Spike Lee didn't direct this "THRILLER 40" documentary?!?! He did such an incredible and amazing job with the others. Spike seemed to get better celebrities for interviews and way more behind the scenes footage. Don't get me wrong, there is some high quality rare footage in this new documentary but not as much as I was expecting. This Thriller Documentary went by way too fast and glossed over pivotal moments in my opinion. Michael Jackson's Thriller is the best selling album of all time, I felt it deserved a more grandiose film with way more footage and coverage of the controversial 1984 Jackson's Tour and MJ's true final feeling about the album himself. Also, none of his brothers appeared in the documentary! It was very odd. But as a MJ FAN... I truly loved and appreciated it.

It is a good documentary with some footage I have never seen taken from the archives which was nice especially some thriller footage. I also enjoyed John Landis giving deeper insight into the making of thriller which I loved. There was some reused footage and also some of the same celebrities giving their interviews I have seen before eg usher. I think the documentary was lacking a little bit in regards of showing some candid video footage of Michael Jackson himself. I would of loved to see some unreleased footage of himself maybe giving deeper insight into the music but it was pretty top level info we have all seen before. Overall I did enjoy it as any Michael fan will. But in terms of directing of this documentary it could of been better I have watched other recent music documentaries that are far better than this as an example the story telling of Mili Vanilli documentary was fantastic.

I expected a mediocre retelling of the success of "Thriller", a sort of a cash cow, but what I got to see was (pun intended) actually really thrilling. Goosebumps from start till finish. The good: this album still is such BLISS to listen to some 40 years later! What is especially great about this documentary is that we get to hear snippets of the demos of "Thriller", which sounded awesome already, with merely hearing Michael Jackson's voice solo. What power. Back in time. Back to the eighties. Back to one of the greatest classics. Back to music heaven! Recommended watch for any fans of the "Thriller" album!

I absolutely loved it, it gave a us a tiny insight as to how Michael made his music. He put so much in to it.. The estate said he can sometimes have up to 100 songs for 1 album. He was a true perfectionist! I especially love what he said about music videos, sorry, Short films. He changed the way we see them. The ones before beat it and thriller were terrible! Thank you Michael for giving us wonderful music and melodies and for being the soundtrack of our lives. This just proves that no one can come near his megastardom, the way he puts 10000% in everything he did. HE IS THE ONE AND ONLY KING OF POP!

What a great documentary especially for those of us who wasn't alive to witness the earth shattering album "Thriller". Awesome breakdown of the songs on the album, the "short films", and going into the genius musical mind of Michael Jackson. He had a vision and was unrelenting in making sure the world heard and saw his vision. His affirmation was on 1000 during this time in his life. He was determined to breakdown all the walls within the music industry. Not only did he do it, he did it PLUS more. Never give up on your aspirations and dreams because if you believe it, you certainly can achieve it! A must watch documentary!

If you are a Michael Jackson fan lots of this stuff will be familiar but there are certain things in here that are described in such depth as to be revelatory!! One of these things is the description of how the music to Thriller was developed which is absolutely eye opening. As described by Anthony Marinelli it's really educational and a just a fascinating glimpse into how the sound was developed. This just might be the one of the most exciting sequences ever in a music documentary! I got chills at the end!! I can't stress enough much this is worth seeing! Also great was Steven Ivory describing Michael Jackson's performance then Motown show which of course contains the iconic debut of the Moonwalk. His insights are always welcome and so well described! I also really enjoyed the comments of Mark Ronson and wish there was more. A truly great trip into the creation of music.

What I love most about this documentary is seeing all of the unreleased footage and interviews of how the greatest selling album of all time was created. Thriller 40 is a reminder of how Michael Jackson paved the way for future artists and how this is considered the blueprint of pop culture success. Thriller has sold more than 100 million copies worldwide and is continuing to break records even after his passing. Not to mention the groundbreaking Motown, 25th Anniversary TV special where he performed Billie Jean live for the first time and wowed audiences when he moonwalked on the stage. There are two things in the music industry, before thriller and after thriller.

A very good documentary that I wished was even longer. Michael Jackson was a genius and still this day, the Thriller album still remains the greatest and most iconic album ever. One of the things I loved about the documentary were the rare clips that included the making of the videos and the ones from the Victory Tour in great quality. I hope his estate releases them for Michael Jackson fans and the rest of the public to see in general. The current generation of artists and fans also need to watch this documentary to see how iconic the Thriller era was and how legendary Michael Jackson was and is still is as an artist. It was well done.

The album Thriller has a special place in my heart and this has probably to do with the fact that like everyone who happened to live in the last few decades of the 20th century, the album would hold a deeper meaning. For those that grew and lived during this time period, little did we anticipate that this album would continue to remain popular well into 21st century and we would still be enjoying this album as we become older and greyer. What's more interesting is that the current generation are enjoying this masterpiece and this will hopefully be the trend in the decades to follow. Big up to the mastermind.
