麥可傑克森傳記片以史詩首映票房打破紀錄

The new musical film Michael, which tells the story of Michael Jackson, has made a huge impact at the box office. The movie stars Jaafar Jackson, who is Michael Jackson's nephew, and he has been praised for his performance as the King of Pop. Since its release, Michael has earned 217 million dollars worldwide, making it the highest-grossing opening weekend for a biopic ever. This means it made more money in its first weekend than any other movie about a real person. The previous record was held by Bohemian Rhapsody, the movie about Queen and Freddie Mercury, which made 124 million dollars when it was released in 2018. Michael also beat the opening weekend of Oppenheimer, which made 180 million dollars. Adam Fogelson, the chairman of Lionsgate, the company that released the film in the United States, said that the movie's success shows that people from all backgrounds are enjoying it. He said audiences are clearly having a great time watching the film.

However, not everyone is happy with the movie. Some critics have said that the film shows a version of Michael Jackson's life that is too clean and does not talk about the more difficult parts of his story. On Rotten Tomatoes, a website that collects reviews, critics gave the movie an average score of 38 percent, but audiences gave it a much higher score of 97 percent. This shows that regular moviegoers are enjoying the film much more than critics. In the last ten years, there have been many movies about famous musicians, including Queen, Elton John, Bob Dylan, Aretha Franklin, Elvis Presley, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Marley, Amy Winehouse, NWA, Robbie Williams, and Whitney Houston. These movies are popular in Hollywood because they usually do well at the box office. Michael is supported by Michael Jackson's estate, and the film uses his real singing voice for the musical scenes. The movie focuses on his music and performances, showing why he became such a big star.

The film does not talk about the child abuse accusations that were made against Michael Jackson. He always said he was innocent and was found not guilty in court in 2005. The filmmakers had planned to include some of these events, but they found out they could not because of a legal agreement Michael Jackson made with one of his accusers. Because of this, the movie was changed and now ends in 1988, before any of the accusations happened. The director said that finding out about the agreement was a tough time for the team, and they had to rethink the whole movie. They decided to focus more on Michael Jackson's music and his relationship with his father, Joseph, who is played by Colman Domingo. The movie was expensive to make, costing about 200 million dollars, which makes it one of the most costly biopics ever. Michael was released in most countries at the same time, but it will come out in Japan later this year. The movie is part of a trend of successful films in cinemas, following other hits like The Super Mario Galaxy Movie and Project Hail Mary. Michael Jackson is remembered for his hit songs like Billie Jean, Beat It, Smooth Criminal, and Black or White, and his album Thriller is still the best-selling album of all time. The film shows Jaafar Jackson performing as Michael, capturing the energy and style that made the King of Pop a legend.
