Additional InformationLegendary musical superstar Michael Jackson takes the stage one last time in this theatrical concert film compiled from over 100 hours of rehearsal footage for the 50 shows he had been scheduled to perform at London's O2 arena at the time of his death. Take a trip behind the scenes to see the mastermind behind such classic pop hits as 'Thriller' and 'Billie Jean' prepare for the concert that would have crowned his entire career.

ReviewsChicago Sun-Times - [An] extraordinary documentary, Chicago Tribune - Compelling, The Hollywood Reporter - What this strange yet strangely beguiling film does is capture one of pop culture's great entertainers in the feverish grips of pure creativity., Entertainment Weekly - THIS IS IT offers a raw and endearing sketch of a genius at work., Time Out New York - Michael Jackson was obviously shooting for the moon right before his death, as you can tell from these stunning bits of concert spectacle.
