Michael Movie Review Should You Watch The Michael Jackson Biopic In 2026

The Michael movie review verdict is in, and it is more complicated than the 26% Rotten Tomatoes score suggests. Antoine Fuqua's long-delayed Michael Jackson biopic, simply titled Michael, hit theaters this weekend with Jaafar Jackson playing his late uncle, and the critical response has been brutal. The BBC gave it one star. Roger Ebert's site called it a filmed playlist in search of a story. Yet early audience reactions on social media have been warmer, ticket pre-sales suggest an $80 million opening, and Variety thought it worked as an engrossing middle-of-the-road biopic. After tracking coverage across more than a dozen outlets over the past 48 hours, I think the honest answer to "should you watch this?" depends almost entirely on what you want from a music biopic, and this guide breaks down exactly what the film delivers, what it skips, and who will actually enjoy sitting through its two-hour-and-nine-minute runtime.

According to data from CoinGecko, the total market capitalization of all cryptocurrencies combined increased 1.4% to reach $2.52 trillion on Friday, April 10. Bitcoin experienced a notable surge of over 3%, briefly touching the $73,000 mark before consolidating around $72,000 at the time of writing. Ethereum demonstrated equally impressive strength, pushing past the $2,200 level, while the majority of top 10 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization also posted significant gains.
