A must see piece of musical history - By: E. J. Malbon, 18 Aug 2008 
It is almost inaccurate to calll this DVD a single movie. 'Moonwalker' is more like a collection a mini-movies & watching it is a journey. You can never be sure what will come up next.
The dvd begins with fabulous performances of 'Man in the Mirror' from Michael, filmed live in two different locations & teamed with a picture montage of famous do-gooders. From here we are treated to clips from Michael's career & a re-enactment of the 'Bad' video by children.
My favourite part of the movie comes up next though, where various claymation fans pursue Michael through Hollywood studios & he transforms into a rabbit. 'Speed demon' kicks in & later Michael & the rabbit have a dance duel.
The award winning & fascinating music video for 'Leave me alone' begins after this where Michael lashes out at some of the bad press he received at the time.
What I would consider the movie to be then begins, which gets away with stretching the viewers imagination somewhat, where we witness Michael's efforts to defeat an evil drug dealer by several sci-fi means.
The highlight of this part of the film has to be the 'Smooth Criminal' music video though. It is incredibly engaging & well put together - arguably Michael's finest 10 minutes to date.
The movie ends with a performance of The Beatles 'Come Together' from Jackson, which is a joy.
This is a DVD to be viewed with an open mind. The story lines are neither believable or complex, but they are incredibly innocent & charming. It is an adventure through the mind of a genius & anybody who enjoys Jacksons music, particulary from the Bad era, will enjoy this. If nothing else, let your children watch it. I guarantee they will love it.

So original - By: J. Rosenthal, 14 Dec 2004 I was so excited when I discovered that Mike had starred in a movie. The beginning is so funny, when he is chased by the plasticine fans with Goofy hats! And the kids in Badder are sooo cute. Michael is actuallly not a bad actor, & the kids he acts with just rock (watch out for John Lennon's son, Sean)With the music videos & sci-fi/fantasy plotline, I just couldn't help but love this film. Watch it!
