Critic Reviews
Show All-
Rolling Stone
He does need to leave Michael Jacksonland, that place where every sign points back to the spectacle of himself.
-
Los Angeles Times
some inspired moments in the 77-minute collection, but there are also stretches that are sappy, derivative and labored.
-
Slant Magazine
In the end, Invincible breaks little ground, instead sticking to familiar sounds of both his recent past and near-ancient history.
-
NME
On first listen, ‘Invincible’ is a good R&B record, but certainly not pioneering
-
AV Music
Invincible just reeks of desperation and aimlessness.
-
Sputnik Music
This album has some great material but too much filler.
-
The Guardian
It is Invincible's quest for regularity that is its undoing
-
All Music
Offer a reminder that he could really craft good pop.
-
PopMatters
On Invincible he goes back to what he does best -- breaking down musical barriers while fighting to get the girl.
-
BBC
You might just find that there isn't enough here which is fresh or original.
-
Joe Vogel
Invincible is the goosebumps album.
-
Pop Rescue
I’m not sure this album is Invincible, I think there’s plenty of cracks.
-
Contact Music
So with his sixth album he still remains king of his castle
-
Pop Dose
It stands as a fairly contemporary, often good, and occasionally awesome album from the King of Pop.
-
Entertainment Weekly
Invincible, his come-on songs to women are petulant rather than mature, and his save-the-world odes feel more fueled by ego than care.
-
Washington Post
It was one of the best debuts of Jackson's career
-
The Edge
Samples of his greatness, and being added to the star-studded contribution he brought to music.
-
New York Nightlife
Invincible is an assembly-line bore, from the mechanized R&B
-
R&Being
The album is nothing if not predictable.
-
The Village Voice
His funk is steelier and his ballads are airier, both to disquieting effect.
-
Kennedy Torch
The mood of the album changes throughout, starting with the hard hitting “Unbreakable”, which transitions to the dubstep-like “Heartbreaker”.
-
Soul in Stereo
While flawed, Invincible has plenty of standout moments, showing that Michael was once again able to adapt to a changing musical landscape.
