This film is legendary.

I must have watched a different film to everyone else here ‘cos I'm pretty sure that it didn't star Michael Jackson. Sure the guy looked a bit like MJ, but if you put them side-by-side you'd soon notice the difference. Aside from that the film was quite realistic, with some good music and some loveable children. Although I'm fairly sure that if I was a bad gangsta' type and some 10 year old started giving me attitude and asking me `who's bad?' I'd probably get quite angry and shoot him, or at least complain to his parents.

It was also quite hard to follow the story, but here's what I could understand: The Michael Jackson character is a nice guy who is wanted by the police, (he's a smooth criminal you see, probably like Keyser Soze), but there's an even badder (or should that be gooder, if bad means good) villain called Mr Big, who tries to get some kids hooked on drugs. I found this unrealistic as surely kids don't have much money, so Mr Big should have been trying to get Wall Street financiers hooked on drugs so that they could afford the habit. Anyway, Mr Big didn't reckon on the MJ look-alike who intercedes and turns into a robot and kills loads of the good bad guys, before turning into a spaceship.

To call this a film would be wrong it's an experience, like getting car jacked or falling down a lift shaft. If you've enjoyed either of those experiences or are a fan of Michael Jackson then I recommend Moonwalker.

This film is good!
