Antoine Fuqua’s $150 million Michael Jackson biopic, Michael, has officially hit theaters today. Starring Jaafar Jackson—the King of Pop’s real-life nephew—the film has earned staggering early box office numbers but has deeply divided critics. While the musical “Thriller” and “Beat It” recreations are being hailed as visual masterpieces, early reviews are split on whether the narrative glosses over the more controversial aspects of Jackson’s personal life.
