I think I had super high expectations going into the show because the last time I was in Vegas I saw the Beatles LOVE and thought it was PHENOMENAL. Tickets for MJ One were not cheap by any means, so I figured the high ticket prices reflected the quality of the show we were seeing.
To be honest, I didn't understand the story-line and what they were going for. There were a couple main characters including some blonde-haired girl who would come out with a guitar at the most random times. I think there were only two sequences that really caught my attention which were Thriller and another song I can't remember - I just remember it was pitch black inside the theater and the performers were wearing suits consisting of neon lights that faded in and out and looked really awesome.
Overall, I thought the show was pretty slow moving. I almost fell asleep several times throughout the show. I looked around me and saw multiple people who had dozed off as well. I just expected more acrobatics since it is a Cirque du Soleil show, but nothing really blew me away. There was a lot of dancing, but that seemed sloppy at times. I am sure the performers are insanely talented, but I just didn't think it all really came together that well. Maybe they were having an off night? I'm not really sure...
