Directed by Antoine Fuqua and starring Michael Jackson’s nephew Jaafar Jackson, the new biopic Michael is out now, but I think I’m going to skip it. While I’m a fan of Michael Jackson’s music (just like everyone else on Earth), I can’t reconcile the film entirely ignoring the sexual abuse allegations against Jackson. Also, according to critics, Michael is a fairly awful movie that is “disconnected from reality” so it sounds like I’m not missing much. Instead, I’d much rather watch the classic episode of The Simpsons that was banned not long ago because it features Jackson as a guest star.
