You are confusing critics and the general audience.

This latest wave of reviews being a personal attack rather than genuine review of the art is nothing new.

My last post on this stuff because I'm focusing on the film rather than the f***ing nauseating bullshit around it
Paris is at war with the estate and is actively investigating their use of funds including questions around hiring a major actor to play Branca.
Janet is in the same boat and the stories of them being at odds during a family screening were confirmed to be false by Janet's team.
Both things are not issues with the film itself rather MJs estate.
On my way to IMAX now.. LETS F***ING GO
This is your Super Bowl. Sneak a little liquor into the theater.
Ok so.. lots to unpack.
The movie is a LOT more upsetting than I thought. For a crowd pleaser it gets pretty dark at times. It's damn near a tragedy. Which is a good thing in a way because Michael went through hell. Especially during this time in his life.
Colman, Jaafar and Juliano are all fantastic in their performances. I loved Juliano and he had my heart with him the whole time.
Overall it's pretty faithful. I do wish they went into more detail but it packs a lot in and never slows down.
It's really heartbreaking to see what he went through again and especially so visually. Some of the shots are great.
Some of it is a bit meh though. There were a few scenes in the Jaafar crossover I wasn't 100% sure on and you can tell certain things were leading to what was cut.
It wasn't the greatest movie of all time but it humanised Michael in a great way, and maybe that's why it got so many upset.
I'm going again this afternoon but my initial reaction would be a 7/10. It covers a lot, I just wish it went into more detail sometimes.
"His story continues"...

Yep. What it covered it did pretty well just needed to go into more detail.
Onto part 2 we go!
they really wanted to dig deeper into the complexities they could always, you know, read a book
That 2nd tweet doesnt really make sense and is implying that the movie can't capture any of the complexity of mj

Enjoy! Like I said it's quite emotional at times. A lot more than I was expecting.
Currently waiting to get into my second screening and I have officially got my hands on all the merch so I'm winning

That’s what I really wanted from it ngl. I kind of got disappointed when I heard it was a puff piece cause Michael is so much more than that imo
What they say
Paris: "The Michael film panders to a very specific section of my dad's fandom that still lives in a fantasy, It's fantasy land - it's not real. But it's sold to you as real ... the narrative is being controlled, and there's a lot of inaccuracy, and there's a lot of just full-blown lies."
Janet: "She had something negative about almost every scene," an individual present at the screening told the outlet in March. "The acting, the makeup, how the actors spoke, even how they walked. It was Janet deciding against the room that this movie wasn't going to meet her approval." (this is just a report. She hasnt publicly said this her self. However, she has showed up to no events for the movie with the rest of the family).
