When he passed away in the summer of 2009, Michael Jackson was in the midst of rehearsals for his final tour, an ambitious 50-date engagement. In editing 120 hours of rehearsal footage together, Jackson producer Kenny Ortega proves that it would've been an event for the ages. Michael performs material that spans his career, from a Motown medley to multi-platinum hits from Off the Wall, Thriller, and Bad. Though he hadn't toured in 10 years, it becomes instantly apparent, despite rumors to the contrary, that Jackson was still in full possession of that unmistakable voice--high-pitched whoops and all--and that he still had the gravity-defying moves of a man half his age. Jackson and Ortega also collaborated on some real showstoppers, such as a graveyard-set "Thriller"; an imposing "They Don't Care About Us," in which several dancers appear to morph into thousands; and a film noir sequence in which the singer slides in and out of Gilda and other black-and-white classics, singing "Smooth Criminal" all the while. Not everything works, like the Jackson 5 numbers, in which he flubs a few lyrics, claiming that his earpiece isn't working properly, but as he readily acknowledges, "That's what rehearsal is for." It's a tragedy that he didn't get the chance to share this dazzling show with the world, but Ortega allows fans to feel as if it actually happened--at least onscreen. --Kathleen C.

USA) If you want to see some great rehearsal and concert footage of the King of Pop before his death this video is the one for you. If you are a true Michael Jackson fan this DVD really does a great job covering the King of Pop at his best during all of his rehearsals as well as some of the concert footage and some ads that he also made during his last moments before his death. All the footage that you see in this DVD is all of the King of Pop doing what he loved to do and that was sing as well as dance and do his choreography according to the way he would do it and also making sure that everything would be perfect and just the way he would want everything to go in his shows. And it was sad when he finally left us but this video really show Michael right before his death in his rehearsals before he went on tour but it was not meant to be. So if you want to see Michael Jackson in great rehearsal and concert footage before he passed on, By all means purchase this one, it is really great. and it truly shows him at his best. He was amazing.   March 11, 2010 Nikki Feroni (Syracuse, NY) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful What a great glimpse into the life of a man no one knew but everyone talked about. He was an extraordinary person and it is shown plain as day here by his friends and associates. RIP, MJ. This is it   March 10, 2010 Ms. B (Ca) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful I really enjoyed this DVD. I didn't get a chance to see it when it was on the big screen and that's why I purchased it. I especially liked the added features. One was about the costumes that had been made for him to wear. That really brought it home for me. My husband wasn't going to watch it but got sucked in and enjoyed it just as much,if not more, than I did! He really enjoyed the music. I found it interesting that they had all of the footage that they did. This Is It?   March 10, 2010 Gertrud Kahler (Southern California) Well, I'm giving it 5 stars because I am such a fan. This is actually a video about the making of the concert that did not happen. It does let you in on some of the pressures and the intense detail work involved in staging such efforts. It is not a video of a concert, and you should not expect to see a concert presented. Great Purchase   March 10, 2010 Kenneth E. Smith (Madera, Ca USA) This was yet another great purchase through Amazon. The item received was as advertised, and arrived in a timely fashion.
