Written and Composed by Michael Jackson
Produced by Quincy Jones for Quincy Jones Productions
Co-Produced by Michael Jackson for MJJ Productions, Inc.
From the album Bad, released August 31, 1987
Released as a single October 21, 1988
THE SHORT FILM
Director: Colin Chilvers
Primary Production Location: Los Angeles, California
Michael Jackson's short film for "Smooth Criminal" was the sixth of nine short films produced for recordings from Bad, one of the best selling albums of all time. The "Smooth Criminal" single hit No. 1 in Spain and The Netherlands and reached the Top 10 in the UnitedStates, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Ireland and Switzerland. In the United States, "Smooth Criminal" reached the Top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100-the sixth single from Bad to do so-as well as Billboard's Hot Dance Club Play and Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles charts.
In addition to being a standalone short film, "Smooth Criminal" became the centerpiece of Michael's most ambitious film project at the time, Moonwalker, a feature-length film that was released theatrically in various countries outside of the United States. In the "Smooth Criminal" portion of the film, Michael and his friends face off against the notorious drug lord Mr. Big (Joe Pesci) and attempt to foil his plot to get the children of the world hooked on drugs-but of course, in the end, Michael defeats the villain.
The musical portion of "Smooth Criminal" takes place in the magical "Club '30s," where Michael instructed his friends to meet him. While Katie (Kellie Parker), Zeke (Brandon Adams) and Sean (Sean Lennon) find the club to belong abandoned, Club '30s springs to life when Michael shows up, wearing a blue and white pinstripe suit and fedora.
As the kids watch through the window, Michael flips a coin into the jukebox and leads the club patrons through a dazzling performance to "Smooth Criminal." Here, Michael shows off updated versions of his signature dance moves. He also debuts one of his most iconic dance moves: the "anti-gravity lean," a seemingly impossible move.

I remember as a kid thinking he was by far the greatest dancer on earth. He still holds that title in my book.

3. What is love
4. Annie are you ok
Funny

I think Annie is not Ok...

Ja, ¿what?

Can we appreciate the back dancers as well 'cause they ATE
They killed it
The choreography of this is INSANE. Every movement has a meaning, it’s so beautifully and charismatically created.
There will never be anyone like him. He was born with supernatural musical genius.
He’s not only the “King of Pop”, he’s also the “King of Music Videos” 🙌
true\😁😁😁😁😁
very true
Amazing! 1:51
Also king of dance
I know
Someone: You can't murder people while dancing
Michael Jackson:
Yes
Remember that one guy from power rangers
Star Lord: Am I a joke to you?
HELOU IXMI
MI MICHAEL
I always knew he was innocent .He had helped kids all over the world.He should have got the reputation and honor that he deserved but instead He was treated badly and unfairly. Rest in peace Michael. You will be missed forever.❤❤❤❤❤
We we miss u mj😢
@@user-og9uk3ci2n His spirit knows we miss him. And I always remember him every time 😭
Facts respect for saying what I’ve always believed he never touched any child in a inappropriate way. Micheal Jackson is a legend and always will be in my books
FACTS
I remember this song for 3 reasons
1. I need to know if Annie is OK
2. THE ANTI-GRAVITY FALL
3. That kids dancing was smooth
🤦🏽♀️🙄🤡
Legend has it , that they still don't know if Annie is okay.
Tupac1996 lmao
There was a sign at the window that he struck her. He came into her apartment and left bloodstains on her carpet. She ran into the bedroom and she was struck down.

That anti gravity lean is pure a genius idea. So iconic. So legendary.
....and copyrighted. No one legally can do that move on stage.
Classic
and moonwalking
@@victornuclear0173 Moonwalking had already existed before MJ did in his own style and popularized it worldwide. The anti-gravity lean was something new he presented.

Lol 😂😂😂
he was a smotth criminal
Brooo I was thinking about that lol

IM WHEEZINF GOODBYE
I saw this video for hundreds times but I still get shocked of his amazing dance every time i see it.
Michael Jackson definitely earned the title of "King of Pop"... What a genius! I remember when this song debuted and of course I was drawn to it and it's video. RIP MJ... you're well missed.
Genuinely not comparable to any artist today, and that’s not an insult. Michael is just in a bracket of his own.
No he’s not. He’s overrated. I will give him a 6/10 as his singing talent
@@metawave789you may not like his singing but he was greatest entertainer of all time
@@user-cb3ko7qc4y no he wasn’t. his entertainmer was even worse

I can't believe how this song hasn't crossed 1 Billion views on UA-cam!!! C'mon MJ gang!
Too many videos of this same song and with different versions and different lengths that's why 😢
As long as baby shark is at 20 Bil we're all good.
We're getting there
MJ GANG FORMS HERE!!!!!!!
@@user-qy2tn3gl7w This video is very close to 1 billion, don't worry. Heck, "Take on me" by Aha got 1 billion views, Smooth criminal will make it no problem!
the dancing in this movie/music video will forever be one of my favorites. There's nothing to say, but all dancers can agree, the dancing and choreography is captivating.
The choreography is one of his best in this video. That lean! So impressive. MJ will always be my favorite.
MJ is and remains unmatched. The last celebrity who was really famous. Everyone in the world knew him back then and still knows him today. Such a celebrity no longer exists today.
lionel messi, cristiano ronaldo (either of whom, but probably ronaldo moreso), could arguably be called most famous human of all time.
@@brycefalloway
In the USA, there are a lot of people who do not know these two. At the time of Michal Jackson and even today, there is almost no one who does not know Michel Jackson.
@@brycefallowayNot trying to be an ass but I have no idea who those people are 🤣
@@e.350 fine, I'll happily admit that. I'm not here to split hairs between who's more famous than whom. But it's the hyperbole that bothers me: "the last celebrity who was really famous". No, there's been loads of "really famous" celebrities, whether in sports (you could even add Michael Jordan to the two names I've already mentioned), in music (Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, Eminem) or movies (The Rock, Will Smith, Tom Cruise).
It doesn't mean that Michael Jackson isn't the most famous. That's fine. I'm happy to say that. But that doesn't mean nobody else can be "really famous." That's just nonsense hyperbole that people say just to sound good without any truth behind it, and people accept it without questioning it because nostalgia sells. Even if you don't like Taylor Swift, you can't deny she's really famous. Even if you've lost respect for Will Smith, you can't deny that he's really famous. Even if you've never heard of Messi or Ronaldo, you must know that the two most famous and successful players of the most popular sport in the world must be really famous.

Imagine being so good at dancing, that you're a background dancer for MJ
Coz MJ does better
I've tried replicating what he does on stage. I've gotten a lot of it down. But I'll never get to the level MJ himself was on. Truly the king of not only music, but of dance and choreography

I was thinking that! What an honour it would have been to have danced with him!
