The Triumph Trailers

The Triumph is the official music video and short film for "Can You Feel It" by The Jacksons. The film accompanies the song's lyrics by containing artistic visuals pertaining to global harmony and world peace. It is entitled "Can You Feel It" on the DVD box set, Michael Jackson's Vision, and on The Jacksons' Official YouTube channel. This 10-minute film was groundbreaking in pioneering the simultaneous narrative short film and music video structure that Michael Jackson of The Jacksons later became known for. It's also noted for its special effects created by Robert Abel and Associates, responsible for the film Tron. In 2001, it was voted one of the 100 best videos of all time, in a poll to mark the 20th anniversary of MTV. Billboard said it was "a cinematic masterpiece with strikingly advanced visual effects for its time." Rolling Stone placed it at number 12 on their list of the best Michael Jackson videos.

It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
