The modern day Michael Jackson was very different from the classic Michael Jackson that became the King of Pop, and one of the greatest entertainers in the history of the world.

I don't blame the guy. He was under all kinds of pressure that I couldn't even fathom, and dealing with his success must have been a huge struggle.

Still, his music obviously faded from the 1990s on, as people now look at the 1970s and the 1980s as his best years. These were unbelievable years, and arguably no one else in music history accomplished what he did, appealing to such a wide base of fans around the world.

The world was secretly hoping for a return to his old form, but the thought of that was clearly a mirage. Jackson was never the same, and his untimely death marked the official end of an era in music, though it probably took place years before. Jackson's Is This It proves that theory wrong to some extent.

I was expecting a sappy movie that played into his issues, with a lot of it covered up by the movie makers and everything else. I was wrong though, and many who've seen the movie will probably tell you the very same thing.

Jackson was a natural born performer, and regardless of his usual physical state, a different Jackson came out while he was on stage during these rehearsal sessions. It was very interesting to see such a transformation.

Jackson's voice sounded like his usual voice, and his dance moves were still some of the best in the game. We saw a playful side of Jackson too, which really brought out the fact that he was in fact an ordinary human being, despite his eccentricities.

If you've enjoyed Michael Jackson's music through your life, by all means see this movie. There's no better way to say goodbye to a once in a lifetime legend.
