  Adds to the greatness of Michael Jackson. This was closed at Disneyland when I was a kid, so I didn't really remember it that well, but it was brought back after Michael Jackson's passing. Captain EO is an amazing short 3D film the great minds of Francis Ford Coppola and George Lucas behind it. Aside from having MJ, his dancing, and singing it it, this film has a good message behind it. Captain EO will never get old to me.

  "Captain EO" is a 3D short film that I got to see at Disneyland yesterday. It stars Michael Jackson as the title character as he and his ragtag space crew of aliens and robots head to a desolate planet to give the ruler (played by Angelica Huston is prostetic makeup) a gift that will change the world and the entire universe itself. The film is directed by, believe it or not, Francis Ford Coppola, and produced by George Lucas. This is totally something George would produce. "Captain EO" is like a mixup of "Star Wars", "Star Trek: The Next Generation", and "Thriller". The direction was good and the choreography in the musical number was impressive. Even for a 20-minute short, the story isn't that good. I wished it would've been a bit longer that way it can have a little more plot development. The 3D was okay. I like my 3D effects to hurdle their way toward my face and then go over my head. "EO"'s effects fly over your head or disappear before they go toward your face. The most diappointing part is they the film is still kind of blurry with your glasses on. Angelica Huston and MJ were good. Not great. Huston is a professional actress so we should expect her to impress. I loved her in "Ever After"! Michael Jackson is obviously a singer and entertainer and has very little acting experience. But this man knows how to act in front of a camera. That is if he isn't being interviewed about his whereabouts with little boys! Unless you've been living under a rock, Disney parks have resumed playing the film due to popular demand after Jackson's death. While this isn't the best short film I've seen, "Captain EO" is still fun for both young and old. "You ate it?!"

  Amazing short 3D film which was only on for about eight years at Epcot Centre in DisneyWorld, Florida, don't think you could see it anywhere else. Its bascially 'Thriller' in space and just as cool, Jackson in his trademark jumpsuit style outfit with lots of buckles and belts, this time its a nice white ensemble much like something outta 'Star Wars'. Speaking of 'SW' Lucas was the writer for this and it does show in effects and alien designs, a cross between Muppets and aliens you may have seen in Jabba's palace in 'Return of the Jedi' haha there's also a 'Labyrinth' feel to one furry creature on MJ's crew. The special effects are basic but still kinda decent, there's a cheap but believeable look to them that only certain Hollywood effects people could pull off and you only saw during the 80's hehe the 3D of course is the main thing and as I remember it was brilliant!! really made you duck for cover at certain times (when the alien/elephant guy threw a can at the screen as I recall) Makeup and costumes are excellent throughout as you would expect from Jackson music vids, all the dancers look good and are in top form along with Jacko, the sets are obviously sets but work well, the makeup on Huston as 'The Supreme Leader' is really good and quite original in design, she looked like a 'wheeler' from 'Return to Oz'. The music isn't as memorable as 'Thriller' or anything else Jacko has done but its the sci-fi film you come to see really, its just a one off special event that looks damn good but nowadays slightly dated I admit. Role on the Bluray release. RIP Michael

  I must admit, I've only seen this film twice, and I'm very impressed, good story, excellent talent, awesome soundtrack which includes 2 great tracks by the star of the movie Michael Jackson-the songs are: 'We Are Here To Change The World' and 'Another Part Of Me' which adds a peaceful colour to the movie , and it's fun to enjoy and watch. Captain EO made full use of its 3-D effects. The action on the screen extended into the audience, including lasers, laser impacts, smoke effects, and star fields that filled the theatre. These effects resulted in the seventeen-minute film costing an estimated $17 to $30 million dollars to produce. At the time it was the most expensive film ever produced on a per-minute basis This should be released on DVD, the movie's popularity is HUGE, so why not is it available to purchase on DVD, it'll make a lot of money! And Michael Jackson, will be very pleased and happy!

  A freaky Michael Jackson music video which moves so fast, it's hard to figure out what is happening. It was great at Disneyland with all the lasers, sub-sonic vibrations, mist-effects, surround sound and 3-D projection. It was more of a ride experience than a story. The song… More
  A freaky Michael Jackson music video which moves so fast, it's hard to figure out what is happening. It was great at Disneyland with all the lasers, sub-sonic vibrations, mist-effects, surround sound and 3-D projection. It was more of a ride experience than a story. The song wasn't very memorable. I want this on DVD so I can analyze the madness.
