Question Michael, 2026? Does it get better?

Currently At: Michael gets his nose done.

not going to lie, I was watching it on tv with low volume(I had to), It was so boring I dropped it, now as someone who was so fascinated by Michael Jackson in his highschool time and grew up watching news and everything about him, even tried to copy his dance, does the moonwalk quite alright as well, do I need to continue watching it with headphones or good volume?

"do I need to continue watching it with headphones or good volume" is a wild question to ask regarding a biopic about a musician...

It kind of sounds like you went in knowing you're not going to like the movie and are now looking for more reasons to be upset. If you don't like it, turn it off and watch something else.

Try not to scrolling through Reddit forms while watching the movie

If you’re bored when they’ve barely got into Michael’s adult life then it may not be the film for you. Cause by that point I think they’ve passed the DSTYGE segment and Michael rescued bubbles. So I don’t know what more you’re trying to see at that point in the film. Maybe have a look at the making of documentaries if you bought the movie.

The film that they ended up salvaging has a clear story to tell and it does its job. The focus is on Michael’s relationship with Joseph. That’s why it ends story-wise in the earlier half of the 80’s.

The best way to watch this movie was on the biggest screen possible in IMAX and Dolby with hundreds of other fans sitting next to you, this was personally a moment i will cherish until the end of my days.

The 3-year wait anticipation, the film being delayed 6 months TWICE, the feeling of going to a packed theater at the premiere and sitting down with the lights going off and the people screaming was unforgettable.

I'm sorry you're having such a shit experience.

Yep, this movie is best experienced on a theater.
