Michael Jackson's This Is It is poised to become the highest-grossing music documentary of all time after an impressive first day in theaters.

The concert film earned $7.4 million domestically and $12.7 million overseas in its first day of release, the Associated Press reports. The $7.4 million take is the best ever for a film on a Wednesday.

This Is It premieres to positive reviews

Miley Cyrus' Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert currently tops the list of biggest concert films. The flick reeled in $31.1 million opening weekend and maxed out at $65.3 million domestically by the end of its run last year.
