Leaving Neverland II: Surviving Michael Jackson

Two men who supported Michael Jackson during his criminal trial - one of them even dated the singer's niece for an incredible eight years - conveniently changed their stories years later, turning into "victims" seeking money and fame. As if the moral contradiction wasn't enough, one of them was caught in a blatant lie when he claimed to have burned Jackson memorabilia, only for an auction house to come forward and disprove him, proving that he had sold the items. But the fraud doesn't stop there: both claimed to have been abused in rooms at Neverland Ranch that, at the time of the alleged crimes, didn't even exist! This is not just a memory lapse - it is blatant proof that their allegations are fabricated and that the media, conveniently, chose to ignore the glaring contradictions in this story.

Same as the first so called 'documentary' - all anecdotal and hearsay, absolutely no evidence, nor any attempt to corroborate the facts. Nor any attempt to argue the facts that have been proven against it like the 'Train Station', the 'Grand Canyon' or the 'Mortgage Payment'. Even though Dan Reed does spend time trying to show his own arguments, like the letter 'begging for an interview' - would you give me a break, tbh e directors arrogance here just proves that he thinks people are stupid. I'm not a fan of Michael Jackson by any means, but I'm a fan of the truth which this is anything but.

The sensationalist portrayal of the first 'documentary' was successful mostly because of the time, which was the me too movement. Times have changed now and people are so much more educated about the media agenda and that controversy sells more than the truth. I expect a bigger backlash this time.

A failed second attempt of a ' documentary ' that still doesn't cover the facts surrounding Michael Jackson's allegations.

The two proven liars in this along with the desperate director just come across as false and needy for attention.

There's also nothing new in this, just the usual sombre violin music played over shots of these men who have back tracked on their support of the deceased popstar.

Of course, the future court case will shed a lot more light on the facts surrounding this cash grab than the two past films.

And then I believe we are going to be treated to a third, a trilogy of this is beyond a joke.

This so-called "documentary" is nothing but a shameful attempt to revive baseless accusations that have already been thoroughly debunked. It offers nothing new, instead relying on two men who have spent years trying to extort money from Michael Jackson's estate, with no concrete evidence to back their claims-just empty words and fabricated stories. The media's decision to give these discredited figures a platform shows a blatant disregard for the truth and a clear desire for sensationalism. This project is a desperate cash grab, aimed at exploiting a legendary figure's name for profit. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME!

What absolute dross.

Zero factuality, just more sad music and repetitive nonsense, zero explanation of multiple issues raised regarding the first instalment, and the same old circular reasoning of "it's true because they said it's true".

Despite the multiple issues raised casting serious doubt on these stories, including but not limited to literally alleging an encounter in a building that wasn't built until years after the alleged incident as proven by building permits and photographs, this was not touched upon and instead swept under the carpet in the hopes it would be ignored.

I do hope no one watched with the expectation of anything new or logical as it's a complete waste of time.
