    Would've been a slam dunk but ah well

    Sounds like this may have gotten f***ed up in the edit room

    I know they cut the third act but clearly with an original runtime of almost 4 hours they still would have to have cut a lot of s***

    Last time a film got salvaged by a director's cut was with Kingdom of Heaven, and it still had some issues after that. We're long ways from those days

    I personally don’t count that because he filmed new stuff for it

    But I guess it could

  • so this is getting a sequel right? (assuming it breaks even and doesn’t flop, which it’ll probably do well regardless)

  • Kalmanta

    We all saw it coming, basically Bohemian Rhapsody 2.0
    Loathed by critics, sizeable hit with the general public.

    Yep anyone with a brain knew publications couldn't possibly praise a positive portrayal of MJ regardless of the quality of the film

    MJ stans are not having it man.

  • mjpplus

    From glancing at some reviews critics might love the sequel being that it’s supposed to delve into that other side of his career

    It seems like that’s what they wanted the whole movie to be

    They will cry again when it doesnt propagate their agenda

    Leaving Neverland got a 98% Rotten Tomatoes score despite being full of easily proven lies

    Do you think those same critics would now be fine to admit they were all wrong and fawned over bullshit?

  • Oh no

    I think it's just people who can see through the bullshit.

    Most of these reviews could've been written the day the film was announced.

    i do believe there is a bias against MJ tho movie will probably not be the greatest and that’s fine, but i don’t believe for a second it’s much worse than bohemian rhapsody

  • This is just pt 1? No wonder there was no white Mike or "controversies" in trailer

    Pt 2 will never come out, I bet

    Of course there is. Like I said. They've spent 30 years plus making a fortune painting a picture. This is a massive stab in the chest for all of them, it was a waste of time and they can't control the narrative. No way they give it a fair shot.

    Sums it up nicely lol
