Kit L @Kitz_Editz123435 Aug 17, 2026 Amy is a wonderfully put-together documentary filled with clips of Amy, but narrated by her family, Tony Bennett, and many more. You may think it's boring, just a few clips, but it's actually amazingly entertaining! See more James B @RT54975811 Feb 7, 2026 I really enjoyed this documentary. I thought that it was really well done and really showed the rise and unfortunate fall of this incredible musician. I recently watched the movie about Amy Winehouse's life and I really enjoyed this documentary more. I also really liked how the footage was all from previously acquired footage. I don't believe there was any footage that was taken for the documentary itself. There's something about that choice that really feels like the producer wants you to focus on the story and the images of that story rather than take away from it. I thought it was an interesting choice, and this was a great watch.

The documentary presents powerful accounts of the artist’s life, conveyed clearly and engagingly. It’s a deeply moving film that portrays the journey of an extraordinary talent who, despite struggles and decline over time, always radiated love and happiness. Rest in peace, Amy Winehouse. ❤️‍🩹 See more James B @RT75570892 Jun 26, 2024 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….. See more Diana P @dianapowers May 6, 2024 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). See more Read all reviews
