The film "Michael," directed by Antoine Fuqua, has received sharp criticism for glossing over the controversial aspects of Michael Jackson's life, yet it has achieved significant commercial success with a 97% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes and a record-breaking $217 million in its opening weekend, despite a low 38% rating from critics; this discrepancy has led to concerns about the film's portrayal of the artist, particularly regarding the omission of serious allegations against him due to legal constraints. #MichaelJackson #FilmCritique #MusicBiography #US #CH #GB
