Micahel Jackson’s This Is It offers Jackson fans and music lovers worldwide a rare, behind-the-scenes look at the performer as he developed, created and rehearsed for his sold-out concerts that would have taken place beginning this summer in London’s O2 Arena. Chronicling the months from April through June, 2009, the film is drawn from more than one hundred hours of behind-the-scenes footage, featuring Jackson rehearsing a number of his songs for the show. Audiences will be given a privileged and private look at the singer, dancer, filmmaker, architect, and genius as he creates and perfects his final show.
MICHAEL JACKSON’S THIS IS IT was directed by Kenny Ortega (High School Musical, Newsies). It was produced by Randy Phillips, Kenny Ortega and Paul Gongaware, with John McClain and John Branca serving as executive producers. It was distributed by Columbia Pictures in association with The Michael Jackson Company and AEG Live. It has a run time of approximately 111 minutes and has been rated PG for some suggestive choreography and scary images.

Michael Jackson: This Is It
Michael Jackson: This Is It is just what I expected. I'd seen quite a few clips before but it's worth watching. It's a pity it couldn't have been seen live.

Blu Ray brings the best out of the King of Pop
So looking forward to this. This Blu ray is going to be an amazing experience as watching Jacko in Hi-def is going to be awesome. Now all i need is a home cinema and it'll top it all off.
