I enjoyed this documentary very much, but I do wish that they payed more of his demos and unreleased songs. I loved seeing the new footage and HD Victory Tour footage. I wish they talked less and just showed him more. It was very good though, and I feel like it was just as good as Spike Lee's: Michael Jackson's Journey From Motown to Off The Wall.

I also wish that they discussed PYT and Lady In My Life. I also want to point out that I didn't learn anything new from this documentary, but it was still nice to see the footage of him talking. At least the MJ estate put some effort in! Solid documentary and I enjoyed it!!

I expected a mediocre retelling of the success of "Thriller", a sort of a cash cow, but what I got to see was (pun intended) actually really thrilling. Goosebumps from start till finish.

The good: this album still is such BLISS to listen to some 40 years later! What is especially great about this documentary is that we get to hear snippets of the demos of "Thriller", which sounded awesome already, with merely hearing Michael Jackson's voice solo. What power.

Back in time. Back to the eighties. Back to one of the greatest classics. Back to music heaven!

Recommended watch for any fans of the "Thriller" album!

I have been looking forward to this for years after the excellent Bad 25.

Unfortunately it didn't deliver.

Way too much focus on the opinions of newer folks who weren't there. Instead of Misty Copeland why not interview Jeffrey Daniel or the NY Undercover guy who was in Beat It? First hand opinions by people who were there.

No historical interview footage of Rod Temperton or Bruce Swedien yet tons of Usher and Will I Am giving the exact same interviews they have all over youtube a thousand times. These parts pull down the good elements of this film as they look and feel like filler material. Yes these are great artists who were influenced by Thriller but not directly relevant to the subject at hand as they were probably children back then so all they can contribute are opinions.

I was really hoping for the definitive story of this incredible album by the people who created it but it feels like an homage created for YouTube.

Bad25 in contrast did a fantastic job of keeping the story very focused on the actual creation of the record by the people who were there.

Good to see Greg Phillinganes and a few others but this feels very incomplete with some glaring omissions. Yes some of the main players are sadly deceased but there is a ton of historical interview footage by people who were there that could have made a much more cohesive and definitive telling of the story.

Unfortunately I felt like this didn't really tell the full story which an album as genre defining as this still deserves.
