Moviegoers sing with Jackson during ‘This Is It’

Since his death on June 25, Michael Jackson, the King of Pop, still has reigned through the land. It's hard to go a day without hearing one of his songs or hearing something new in the investigation of his death.

Now, everyone can see what he was working on: his last great masterpiece, "This Is It."

The theater was full of a mix of people seeing a recent 9 p.m. showing at Red Rock cinema, with the crowd ranging from small children to seniors.

Unlike at the memorial, where people dressed like Jackson, the audience was more casual. At the show, a few attendees wore one glitter glove and a black fedora. Others wore Michael Jackson T-shirts. The rest came in regular street clothes. But everyone wore the same "This is It" lanyard.

Everyone in the theater had one other thing in common. They connected to Michael Jackson and his music. It showed during activities inside the theater before the movie started.

The theater manager held a mini-game show with five people she picked, asking them to come forward and answer questions about Jackson and his music career, such as how many solo albums he made, and what year he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Each participant received a poster for the movie.

The movie consisted of interviews from people who would have toured with Jackson, as well as footage of his practice runs of almost every song. From what the footage showed, it would have been an absolutely amazing concert. The effects and videos that would have played behind him gave his intricate dance moves and his voice the perfect bit of uniqueness.

Show director Kenny Ortega has a great creative mind, and he and Jackson worked together as a good team. Everyone involved in the show seemed to be more like a family than anything else. It didn't seem like it was a practice to them. It seemed more like a time to express what they are about.

Jackson's most popular songs, such as "Beat It," "Billy Jean" and "Thriller," had everyone in the theater singing along or tapping their feet.

At one hour and 51 minutes, the movie was the perfect length.

Everyone walked out of the theater singing along.
