Michael Jackson’s “This Is It” moonwalked into theaters Tuesday, and judging by our Twitter reviews from @redeyechicago followers, it’s an audience thriller.

This Is It has lots of poignant moments that somehow manage to simultaneously immortalize & humanize Michael Jackson.

Went 2 the This Is It premiere last night. LOVED IT! A definite must-see 4 all MJ fans.

SO GOOD He still sounded just as good as he does on his cds. The movie purely shows his immense talent as a singer and dancer

@WardellJClark

The Film is Breath-taking. Showcases Michael as the genius his fans knew he was. In every aspect of Showmanship, A Must See!

@djshelly

#ThisIsIt was wonderful! A must see if you like the late Michael Jackson’s music!

I don’t feel “This Is It” was exploitative; it was a great view of all the work that went into the tour & a fresh, final glimpse of MJ.
