This Is It!

I was so lucky to win Michael Jackson's last “performance”, This Is It, on blue-ray disc from notSupermum. I missed the movie at the cinema as I was in Italy and I couldn’t wait to watch it on dvd. But on blue-ray it is even better! I watched it on Saturday evening together with my daughter and it was fantastic. The quality is amazing, the editing and sound were even better and the story telling was truly extraordinary, the only downfall was knowing that the concert was never going to happen!! I couldn't refrain my tears every now and then thinking he was no more. But it wasn't a sad show. Not at all. I was expecting a frail man, maybe ridden by prescription drugs but I was totally wrong. To me, MJ looked fresh, full of energy and enthusiasm and quite ready to give his fans a show beyond their wildest dreams. He did look a little thin, but apart from that, certainly no signs of illness or tiredness as have been suggested. Michaels attention to detail, his love and care, all show through in this unique look behind the scenes. I love the way the film portrays his wonderful sense of humour too, not often shown to us. His voice and dancing were great as usual, the choreography and background scenes were perfect and those were just rehearsals! A true entertainment. Thank you, notSupermum, for your generous and to Michael, of course, the king of pop forever!
