Best movie of this year hands down!
... View MoreClever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.
... View MoreIt’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
... View MoreAmazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
... View MoreWhen it was announced the "King of Pop" was dead at age 50, a month before he was to start a series of live comeback shows at London's O2 Arena, it was a huge shock to millions of people around the world. He was, and will forever be one of the most talented voices and dancers in the music industry, and he will be missed terribly. I decided to remind myself how wonderful he was by watching this great music video, from director Martin Scorcese. The story for the first five minutes or so sees Darryl (Michael Jackson) ending school, going home in his derelict neighbourhood. His mother isn't there, but his friends, led by Mini Max (a little known Wesley Snipes), and spends an evening with them, but he realises Daryl has changed with attitudes to petty crime. In an attempt to show that he is still "bad", Daryl meets the gang in a subway station, where Mini Max sees him chickens out of robbing a passing old man. The black and white then turns to colour when Daryl is dressed in leather with huge curly hair, singing the iconic song and creating some fantastic moves with his gang along the way. Daryl eventually has his members repeating his chants, until Mini Max grabs him, accepting he is still "bad", saying the words "that's the way it goes down". The film ends with them walking away, returning to black and white, with hoodie wearing Daryl watching them leave. Michael Jackson was number 14 on The 100 Greatest Pop Culture Icons, and he was number 6 on The Ultimate Pop Star, and Wesley Snipes was number 96 on The 100 Greatest Movie Stars. Very good!
... View MoreThis music video is honestly one of the best of Michael Jackson. He portrays a high school kid coming home from a high class, preppy school only to hang out with his ghetto friends. As the group gets back into their old ways, Michael refuses to continue with them. His opinions have changed since they last hung out and doesn't want to be the delinquent that he apparently was before hand.After his friends give him one more chance to show that he still is BAD, Michael ditches the chance and tells his friends that they're nothing and not bad either. He goes into a lengthy dance number to show to them that he is BAD too, but just not in the way that they want him to be.The direction and quality of film is excellent. With it's WIZARD OF OZ type feel, by having the film start off in Black and White and then at the point of the song's entrance, turning to color, only to go back to Black and White after the song's finished.Once again, this is one of MJ's better MUSIC VIDEOS and is a must see for fans of both MJ and Scoresce.
... View MoreWhen I saw this music video for the first time, I really liked it because I liked the song and also that Michael Jackson is my favorite singer of all time. Michael Jackson did a fine job in this music video and the direction and choreography were superb. Michael Jackson has done very cool music videos in the past and they were cool and this one is cool too. My favorite part was Michael saying "Who's Bad?" because it sounded cool and that it goes with the song.Final Rating: 10/10
... View MoreI thought that when Jacko had made a music movie right after Thriller, it might be good. Well, I was partially right. While Michael is no longer a minority in this video, his approach to drama is somewhat questionable. But, thanks to virtuoso director Martin Scorsese, he brings this mini-music movie together (though on TV they will usually just show the music part and will leave out the parts with a young Wesley Snipes) by some good editing and music to his images (Scorsese knows how to bring music and movies together with such things as The Last Waltz and Woodstock). Not inspired, but not a waste of a few minutes on MTV either. A-
