The film was released to mainly positive reviews from both critics and Jackson fans; the film's portrayal of Jackson and his performances were generally praised, while criticism mainly consisted of both critics and fans having felt that the film was made just to profit off Jackson's death and that Jackson wouldn't have wanted the film released because he was a "perfectionist". In the film's opening weekend it grossed over $23 million - in the United States alone - making the number one film at the box office and making it the fifth highest-grossing Halloween debut. The film's worldwide revenue gross was in total $261 million during its theatrical run making it the highest grossing documentary / concert movie of all time.
