Rolling Stone[22]

The album received positive reviews. Ray Rahman fromEntertainment Weeklygrades the album "A", and reminds the box set is "a potent reminder of just how much Bad's pulsing pop holds up", and the previously unreleased songs are "real treasures".[21]Mike Diver fromBBCsaid, it is "an awesome, evergreen and essential pop masterpiece".[23]Chaz Lipp fromThe Morton Reportreviews the album "a terrific set".[24]TheLos Angeles Timesreacted positively to the product; however, they were averse to the new remixes, especially collaboration with Nero, Pitbull and Afrojack.

Randall Roberts said "these are terrible commercial house tracks, and are an insult to MJ's memory because they do it so ungracefully".[25]Evan Sawdey gave the release 7/10, criticizing Afrojack as "outright trash", and saying of Speed Demon: "it ends up sounding more like a Nero song with MJ's vocals than it does a genuine Michael Jackson remix".[26]Supajam simply referred to the song as a disgrace,[27]while Michael Cragg said "the world's worst rapper, Pitbull. He lazily croaks his way through two verses, spouting such lines as" I'm so out of this planet I speak a third language called that moon talk, in four years catch me with a billion doing that moonwalk ". Just after he says billion he nearly manages to soil the trademark" hee hee ", which only just masks the distant sound of Jackson spinning in his grave."[5]
