Rating: 5/5 --
An incredible study and a challenge to public complicity, what sticks most from this tender and complex portrait is its subject's gaze; Kapadia forces us into Amy's mind and keeps us there. A cinematic treat.

One Room With A View
Director Asif Kapadia doesn't need to use "re-enactments" or the other types of visual filler we see in most documentaries. Instead, as audio interviews with her colleagues, friends, and family play we see Amy herself.

Bitch Flicks
Winehouse, both in her public appearances and in the private films and audio recordings, is funny, sharp, brash, as crude as she is elegant.

London Review of Books
The camera that lovingly captured the young singer became an instrument of torture.

DCist
[I]t is the achievement of AMY, Asif Kapadia's accomplished, quietly devastating documentary, that it makes the story of this troubled and troubling individual surprisingly one of a kind by allowing us to, in a sense, live her life along with her.
Los Angeles Times
AMY remains grounded in the late singer’s humanity....AMY never feels exploitative; the singer’s addictions were another facet of deeper personal issues that went inadequately addressed.

[A] shattering biographical portrait of the British singer and songwriter Amy Winehouse...
New York Times
Product Description:
Amy presents the story of British singer and songwriter Amy Winehouse, whose 2006 album BACK TO BLACK catapulted her to widespread fame and critical acclaim. Intense media scrutiny and problems with alcohol led to a downward spiral, leading to her tragic death in 2011 at the age of 27. The film was directed by Asif Kapadia, and includes Winehouse footage and performance clips and interviews with friends, family members and collaborators.
