Michael Jackson:
The Untold Story of Neverland
Reviews on Amazon.com
Thank you, Mr. Nimmer, for producing this revealing DVD. It gives us such an insight to the truth behind Michael Jackson's (evil) accusers, the (pompous) Sheriff's Department, (the vindictive) Tom Sneddon, (the backstabbing) Martin Bashir and the dreadful media. We would never see on television what you have shown us on this DVD, never. I'm glad "you" were the one hired to work with the Jackson defense team to film Neverland for the jury. Because of your neutrality towards Michael Jackson I feel this DVD was produced in the most bona fide manner on your part.
... Of course, this DVD only solidified what I have believed all along. I hope all the MJ haters and the "fence-sitters" really consider watching this DVD. Too bad, for Michael's sake, this piece wasn't produced and aired on television after the trial, but I am very happy it is available at all. It will serve to comfort Michael's children and his family.
... Thank you, again, Mr. Nimmer for a superb DVD in Michael's defense.

I believe Michael Jackson was a rare and remarkable person, this documentary presents the evidence -not what the media shows to raise their ratings..Everyone is supposed to be innocent until proven guilty but seems that wasnt the case for Michael Jackson ,but even though he was treated so unfairly the truth did come out and in the end the jury's decision was -not guilty. this is a dvd well worth buying if it is the truth you want too see and not the media frenzy. Great dvd!!

This documentary serves as an excellent visual aid to understanding the false allegations made against Mr. Jackson during his 2005 trial. It exposes the Arvizo family what they truly are. These allegations were only made after Michael learned from Chris Tucker and Jay Leno that this was a family he needed to steer clear of and Michael began to distance himself from them. This is an excellent insightful piece on understanding how easily someone can be falsely accused and how the media will do anything (I mean ANYTHING) to increase their ratings! Michael Jackson once said "lies run sprints...but TRUTH runs marathons." In the long run, the whole world hopefully will know the truth behind these allegations and Tom Sneddon. Also, it gives a brief glimpse into the false allegations in 1993 which were made after Mr. Jackson refused to invest $20,000,000 into the boy's father's movie script which was briefly reported on CNN years ago but of course it didn't get 24 hour coverage like the sensationalism does.
Excellent job, Mr. Nimmer, on this visual account of the accusers and their history of trying to "milk celebrities." However, for a detailed account of what really happened in the trial, one needs to read Michael Jackson Conspiracy by Aphrodite Jones...now that is a GREAT book and well documented regarding the facts. The 1993 allegations are well documented in "Redemption" by Geraldine Hughes. These three pieces of work put together truly tell the story of how Mr. Jackson was falsely accused and how his life was destroyed thanks to the media capitalizing on anything they could sensationalize. I'm sick to my stomach that the entire world does not have enough curiosity about the truth to watch this documentary and read these two books!

It's sad that this documentary has never been shown on TV, because I imagine it would open the eyes of a lot of people who still believe Michael Jackson is guilty, despite the innocent verdict. Why do they still believe that? It's because of all the negative media Michael got at the time.
... I feel this documentary proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that Michael Jackson was innocent. It takes you through Neverland, talks about the claims made by the family of the accuser (that they were all held hostage at Neverland among those claims) as well as their more Michael-positive rebuttal video, talks to a jury member of the trial, shows the interview with the accuser and the police, and lots more.
I recommend this for everyone. Whether you believe he's innocent (I always did) or guilty, you need to see this documentary. I will always continue to defend Michael whenever I can, and this movie had some great facts to add to my argument.

This was so different from all we see on TV. I think everyone who was a fan or not should watch this. It makes me happy to see how many fans and and friends MJ had all over the world. It is sickening that some are so cruel and that the media looks for anything negative. How hard this must be for celebrities and their families. Very touching footage and I would recommend it.

This documentary presents a concise, detailed, and truthful look at Michael Jackson's 2005 child molestation trial and the 1993 allegations that preceded it. If you want to know the REAL story, without all the innuendos and gossip from the general media, you must order this DVD.

Everyone needs to watch Larry's doc!! Im so sick of people voicing "opinions" when they don't have the facts. As Michael once said, "the biggest sin in the world is ignorance." This doc provides proof that Michael did not do those horrible things the Arvizo family AND Jordi Chandler accused him of...

Thank you, Larry, for sharing the truth about Michael. Even though he is gone from us, this story needs to be told. Rest in peace, Michael.

This should be put on Television to educate the new generation to the truth. All anyone has is the tabloid trash to look at constantly about Michael on a daily basis on TV currently and as we speak, we need more of this instead.

I'm so happy that you did this. some people were saying that you should put this documentary on tv...and others were saying that you should make people buy it, but i think that to start you should put it on tv because the people who REALLY need to watch this (the close-minded ones) aren't going to buy this...but if it is broadcasted on tv (and is free) more people will be open to watching it. Im SOOOOOO happy that you did this THANK YOU.

Thank you for being there for MJ when he was alive and after. His fans appreciate this, myself included. My family & I have always believed he was innocent, but I have been surrounded by many who made stupid jokes and believed otherwise, yet they had zero knowledge of the case or anything to make the claims they did. I am really looking forward to viewing your documentary :). Maybe you could try CNN. Thanks again!

THANK YOU Larry, for doing the work to get the TRUTH out there about MJ's innocence. Many of us knew there was NO WAY he was guilty of what they were accusing him of.
... Yourself, Mr. Mesereau and Ms. Jones are to be commended for your work. Thank you.

Thank you very much Mr. Nimmer for posting this. I have changed my mind from believing he was guilty. Why oh why didn't all this info come out when MJ was still alive? (Not an accusation on you Mr. Nimmer) Just saddened that this was not picked up by a major USA network.
—IndiumBlue
Thank you Mr. Nimmer, as a true Michael Jackson fan, who not only love him because of his second to none talents, but for his extraordinary kind child heart-soul. Michael deserves that the truth comes out and end the horrible lies these evil people made up...

To think all these years I believed Michael Jackson was guilty—boy did your documentary prove me wrong! I was in total and utter disbelief when I watched it and it actually reduced me to tears. Well done for your amazing work.
—Ms. Purple Tee
I just wanted to thank you for your movie. It really opened many eyes. I always believed he was innocent. I bough the movie, and showed it to a few of my relatives, who thought just like many others, that he was guilty, and they were so surprised. I have always wondered how it feels to change someone's mind about something, something they have always been so sure about. And you have done it. Well done Mr. Nimmer! You, Tom Messereau, and Aphrodite Jones have done what others feared to do, defend an innocent man. Thank you.

Thank you so much for making this film!
Your even-tempered and level-headed voice/tone add a lot of credibility to the movie. I can see this is not a fan movie. Thanks for pointing out the critical facts that have been completely missing in the media report regarding 2005 trial and 1993 allegation against Jackson. After viewing your movie I am so ashamed of many of the reporters, I mean not just tabloid reporters, but many so called elite reporters from major networks. I believe Jackson died of a broken heart long before his ultimate death.
Are you planning to try to get some air time in major networks and PBS? The truth must be told. Thanks again!

I feel you were very fair and true to Michael, he has been a victim for so many years of negativity and wrong doing...and then your DVD came along...I ordered my copy a while back now, after seeing so many comments about it on youtube...and my, oh my, I was not disappointed...I just hope and pray that one day, it will be a primetime showing on TV's around the world...Thankyou again so much... from a very happy viewer in Liverpool UK...:0)"...
