While fans won't be able to see the Michael Jackson's This Is It documentary until Oct. 28, Elizabeth Taylor has watched the film and given it two thumbs up, reports Entertainment Tonight.

The late King of Pop's longtime friend, 77, reportedly hosted a private screening of This Is It for several Jackson staff members, including his former assistant Miko Brando, at MGM Studios in L.A. last weekend.

Taylor, who attended Jackson's funeral Sept. 4, led a standing ovation at the end of the documentary, a source tells ET.
