Originally posted by IndieWire Kapadia leaves it up to the audience to determine whether Winehouse's situation could truly have gone another way. Whether he has or hasn’t captured the true essence of the singer may require further debate, but what’s beyond question is that "Amy" is an extraordinary, powerful work.

Originally posted by The Guardian A star is born — all over again. Asif Kapadia’s documentary study of the great British soul queen Amy Winehouse, who died of alcohol poisoning at the age of 27, is stunningly moving and powerful: intimate, passionate, often shocking, and almost mesmerically absorbing.

Originally posted by HitFlix What this review hasn’t touched upon, though, is Winehouse’s most important legacy: her music. And Kapadia absolutely nails it. He intersperses many of Winehouse’s most memorable songs (as well as some of her early compositions) throughout the doc. As we hear each song the lyrics appear on screen, reminding the viewer of what a brilliant songwriter she was. Read more at http://www.hitfix.com/in-contention/...FE8CxapKGJM.99

I really want to go see it, but I don't think anyone else will want to go with me.

Amy is one of my favourite musicians of all time. It's hard to put into words what she means to me
It's so much more than just enjoying her music, I genuinely feel really connected to her through it.

I like visiting her statue in Camden, I never got to meet her in person but it's closest I'll get to it, and I believe the statue is a nice way of remembering her and she is alive through it and her music.
I can't wait to see this film. Even though there has been controversy around it to do with her father mainly, I want to make my own mind up and enjoy the film to celebrate Amy's life and talent.
