Fiennes provides a meandering observation of the woman behind the glamazon, disco diva and full-throated and furious singer/performance artist in this unstructured doc. May 31, 2018 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

Still, the sight of the ominously androgynous floating fortress with legs to spare in her civvies alone is worth the price of admission. May 18, 2018 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review…

The movie clocks in at just under two hours and feels considerably longer. As it ticks on, it achieves an unlikely and perhaps not entirely unintentional feat: It makes Grace Jones kind of boring. May 3, 2018 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

Perhaps Fiennes's intent is to draw the viewer into the solipsistic intensity of what it is to be Grace Jones. It is a bracing experience, because she is hedonistic, exultant, funny, and fierce. Apr 19, 2018 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

Two hours of contrasts that inform one another: sweat-inducing concert footage, intimate family reunion moments, steel-spine business negotiations, recording-studio drama, and a steadfast commitment to personal glamour. Apr 12, 2018 | Full Review…

It's so dense and yet somehow incomplete-as though we're watching the abridged theatrical version of a ten part series. Aug 28, 2018 | Rating: 6/10 | Full Review…

[Director Sophie] Fiennes' unconventional film is far less concerned with the story of Grace Jones than with the person that is Grace Jones - and it is a treat to get to spend two hours with her. Aug 24, 2018 | Full Review…

More personal diary than history lesson, this woozy doc oscillates between scenes of public performances and private conversations, offering greater insight into Jones' work ethic and family history... The late Jonathan Demme would have been proud. Aug 20, 2018 | Full Review…

Loose, energetic and revealing - and really, nothing else could've captured Jones' distinctive persona. Jul 31, 2018 | Full Review…

The non-chronological editing oddly makes Jones look as if she's everywhere at once, unbounded by the laws of time and space that ordinary mortals are subject to. Jun 28, 2018 | Full Review…
