As hundreds of thousands of fans anticipate watching the final rehearsal footage of Michael Jackson some have chosen to boycott the film.
A campaign called This Is Not It has been spreading over the internet. It claims Jacko's ailing health will be hidden in the film and "movie magic" will show a fit and healthy man, when in reality Michael was addicted to powerful prescription drugs.

Leave MJ alone he lived and breathed for his music and he wanted people to enjoy his music and his message of love for everyone and life in generral. yes he had problems but what has that got to do with us? Dont we all have problems and make bad choices at some point.

I saw the movie twice, and i have to admit i was shocked at how much weight MJ had lost. Yes i believe that the movie was in bad taste as it was obvious that MJ was unwell.

I find it really sad that with all that MJ done for the poor and starving people he never thought to feed himself. So sad to deal with the fact that MJ is no longer living but his music will live on. MJ was and will always be the greatest legend and an inspiration to us all. Rest in peace
People will always criticise whatever he has done and it is never enough for some people. If you don't like it then that just too bad.Do you think the Michael Jackson movie is in bad taste?No -

When I went to see the film, I had already convinced myself that it was going to be depressing and hard to watch. However, after leaving the theater (and yes a few tears were shed by all) rather than feeling down and melancholy, I felt a kind of joy in my heart. Not for any reason other than for what I think was Michael's motivation all along. His MUSIC was him. None of the other circus of CRAP surrounding his life. He never wanted people to focus on HIM as much as his MUSIC. His MUSIC was meant to make you feel good. It was meant, like most music is, to lighten your heart, to make you tap your toes, to put joy into your heart, And this is exactly what I felt as I left the theater, JOY in my heart. .....and I continue to celebrate his MUSIC....our gift. Thank You GOD for giving us the gift of song through such a talented child of yours.
