Audience Reviews

James B good film great documentary and interviews its just really really sad that drugs and alcohol ruined amy winehouse and the fact that she could not get help for her problems great movie just sad that this was the result i wish she was still alive and still making music….. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/26/24 Full Review Diana P This is a very well made documentary. I felt like Amy was troubled long before fame came along and her parents literally ignored her calls for help. She told her mother that she had started a new diet (I.e., bulimia) and her mother did nothing. Bulimia was one of the things that killed her. I think she was always calling for help in the largest way. Perhaps her karmic lesson was that you have to want to save yourself (with the help of trusted professionals). Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/06/24 Full Review Yash B "Amy" is a fascinating and ultimately devastating documentary. Right now the discourse online I have noticed is that the Amy Winehouse biopic is necessary since this already great documentary exists. I would actually argue that if done tastefully, a biopic could be a very impactful experience and this story definitely has all of the pieces to tell something profound and moving. The way this doc uses archive footage and audio to tell a story is really impressive. I didn't know much about Winehouse before watching this outside of some high-level things, and this movie made me feel like I got to get to know her over the course of it. Overall, it is one of many cautionary tales from this world and a very well-made documentary that is engaging and a memorable experience despite being tough to watch at times. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/17/24 Full Review Shael A poor storyline that did not spark admiration for Amy's story in the way that we admire her music. Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/26/23 Full Review Cas C When thinking about what could have made this movie better, there was one resounding thought: "Not much." The film is an intimate review of a sorely misunderstood talent. Evocative, playful, heartwrenching, and - perhaps most importantly - true. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/28/23 Full Review Thomas M The best documentary movie ever made! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/27/22 Full Review Read all reviews
