Sing: Thriller

Sing: Thriller, directed by Garth Jennings and starring Scarlett Johansson and Matthew McConaughey, offers an imaginative reimagining of the iconic "Thriller" music video, this time brought to life by the animated cast of Sing. The clever twist of splitting Michael Jackson's legendary vocals among the different characters adds a fresh and creative layer to the experience. Each character's unique voice and personality complements the eerie, yet upbeat vibe of Thriller, giving the performance a lively and fun ensemble feel.

Johansson's sultry, rock-infused tones blend effortlessly with McConaughey's charismatic and smooth delivery, while the rest of the cast joins in to create a dynamic harmony. Jennings masterfully balances the nostalgia of the original video with the playful energy of the Sing universe, making it feel both familiar and original. Fans of both Sing and Michael Jackson will appreciate this clever crossover, where the unmistakable beats of Thriller. A fun, inventive tribute to the King of Pop! Voices.

Hitting it out of the park again with great animation! Loved it the musicality and dance coordination were perfection. A great tribute to one of the best music videos of all time! Another great addition to the SING series. Better suited to adults that younger kids who may not get the relevance of the video/ song. Also some funny moments a great quick snippet for the season of Halloween. All the favourite characters featured makes me want another SINGLE moves asap! Have seen some reviews referring to the MJ song featuring however it still remains one of the most iconic music videos of all time.

Enjoyed it throughly, glad they're finally giving Michael Jackson the flowers he deserves after the continuous allegations against him even after his death

And Re enacting the hit song thriller video is the best way to do so! It's not entirely the same, and gave a nice new twist to the classic video. The cast smashed their vocals (they literally hit it out of the park) and done the song justice in my opinion. Had me wanting to dance and sing along to it.

The animation was awesome and absolutely stunning, I seriously wished it was longer which to me is the only real flaw. But overall, it was amazing 👏

I just finished watching Sing: Thriller (2024) and it is a fun little Halloween short for the kids to watch.

Positives for Sing: Thriller (2024): I surprisingly had fun with this short especially since I'm not crazy about the two Sing movies. It was cool to see these characters sing to Michael Jackson's Thriller. This short is perfect to get the family into the Halloween season. And finally, the short is only 11 minutes and you can get through it with no problem.

Negatives for Sing: Thriller (2024): While I certainly liked this Halloween short, it's not something that I would go back and rewatch every Halloween. A lot of that is probably because I'm not into the Sing movies. Also, this short does the cliche that a lot of movies and shows do a lot of times and make experience a dream sequence and as we all know we hate dream sequences.

Overall, Sing Thriller (2024) is a fun little short for the kids to enjoy during the Halloween season.

What can you say when you have a bunch of anthropomorphic animated characters singing and dancing?

You'd call it Sing's version of Thriller, that's what. Overall, it's cute, with excellent animation and an almost shot-for-shot dance sequence of the video Michael Jackson did many years ago. It's fun to watch the various characters go through their paces, each bringing their unique voices melded with Michael Jackson's voice. That's the good part.

The only drawback to this kind of short is that there's virtually no character development. Viewers who haven't seen either Sing or Sing 2 probably won't know who's what, although Matthew ("All right, all right, all right") McConaughey is featured, and Scarlet Johannson lends her singing voice as well, as does Tori Kelly, who is terrific, as always.

Basically, it's a fun riff on Thriller, the kids will like it, and the adults will probably like it as well. Just go with it, and watch out for the snail!
