I was frustrated by this doc in that there was so much amazing footage and yet, for me, I couldn't get much of a sense of who Michael Hutchence was on a deep level. Jan 3, 2020 | Full Review…

Lowenstein's film poignantly represents the fullness of Hutchence's life, the brilliance and the pain. It'll send viewers away with both a heavy heart and "What You Need" buzzing in their heads. Jan 10, 2020 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…
