The Michael Jackson rehearsal flick "This is It," continued to lead in the box office topping all other concert films taking in $103 million in the first five days.

On Sunday, the film beat projections by production company Sony by raking in $8.3 million.

The movie surprised many critics who expected something completely different from this film. According to the website rottentomatoes.com, This is It garnered 81 percent favorable reviews.

MJ looks surprisingly energetic in the film and not all like the downtrodden images that many remember during his well-publicized trial.

Sony has extended the movie's release, which was originally scheduled to end after two weeks, through to the Thanksgiving holiday.

The late Michael Jackson's newly-released single "This is It," is actually a remake of a song written by Jackson and Paul Anka many years ago.

In this version, the lyrics have been changed, orchestration added, and the Jacksons are doing the backup vocals. Wasn't impressed initially, but after hearing it over several times, I think it will be a big hit.

The movie will be widely released on Oct. 28 worldwide and as already breaking box office records in early sales.
