Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Great for anyone who likes a story with a soundtrack worth keeping and the curious. The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top. A good follow-up to A Star Is Born or Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me.
The mood
Eye-opening.
The pace
Well paced for a documentary, at 1 hr 31 min.
What might put you off
Skip it if you want made-up drama tonight.

Pop king Michael Jackson solidifies his title with this release of fifteen past number one hits. Songs include "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough," "Thriller," "Black or White," and "Blood on the Dancefloor."
