      It was amazing! There were times when the actress looked so much like her that I gasped out loud! 2 pluses for me were "Leader of the Pack", a song I played over and over again waaay back in the 70's" AND "Ghost Town", (I used to play that one a lot too, still have the CD) .

    1:06 No Amy WAS expelled from the Sylvia Young Theatre School. In a BBC women's hour interview around 2003/4, she directly stated she was expelled because academically, she wasn't getting the results that the school wanted. There's even a line in 'Rehab' that goes "didn't get a lot in class, but I know it don't come in a shot glass." The school and her father would deny that because they don't want to admit they kicked out one of the greatest singers of all time and to stop more bad press for Amy, respectively.

      Anyone with a clear understanding of enabling a person with addiction issues. Can see that he was doing just that. Let her have her addictions that way he can pull the wool over her eyes and get himself signed as executor of her estate and get everything when she dies. I think that too was his biggest issue with Blake fear that he would be the one that would be the person everything would be left to in the event of her death.

    The fact that it didn't even show her writing her music (besides that 3 min scene of her writing what is it about men) or her with her producers. There was that whole scene of her with her nan singing body and soul by Tony Bennett and they didn't even show the part of her life where she actually recorded with Tony and how incredible that was for Amy to record with her IDOL. It didn't show how truly funny she was, how she was at the height of her fame when she was heavily addicted, it also kind of romanticized Blake, and it didn't show how truly awful he was for her. it makes me so mad and angry. I'm so sorry Amy :(

    The actress portraying her is 27. That’s the same age Amy passed away. This isn’t the 90s or early 00s anymore where biopics were actually good. Nowadays writers, directors and heck even Family members will do anything to water down the truth about these celebrity biopics. Michael Jackson’s is coming out about a year from now and even with his family involved with the movie, I don’t think his is gonna be as good either.

I bet she knows her dad better than you and knows deep down he care so much abt her that he fought hard to save her from drug and destrotive marriage. Supported her during toxic media intrusion.

      I kind of think that he did cause problems for her. It's strange how he always seemed to look the other way when she was growing up. She was still a minor and he obviously didn't curb her from having addictions or beginning addictions when she was younger. He knew she was drinking. She sat right in front of her family drinking and then they tried to act like it was all someone else's fault. She had an addictive personality. Her dad should not have been trying to sell his little girl out by letting the media know where she was at. That isn't caring for and loving your daughter. He wanted to be known as her dad. And make money from her likeness etc. Shame on him!!!

    It’s sad that the movie is not a fitting tribute to Amy. It’s so sad that she almost made it. This is a frequent pattern, in the recovery field I’m in. A little known fact that might help people with Substance Use Disorder more than education about tolerance (which most know) is that the brain doesn’t recover from addiction as quickly as people’s tolerance drops. Because of this, the addiction sufferer needs to take more of the substance to achieve the desired effect, even though their body can’t handle it. Your brain will tell you that you need, and can handle, more than your body and/or Central Nervous System, in fact, can. You may not feel drunk or high, but drinking or using more is extremely dangerous, after a period, or periods, of abstinence.

    I won’t be watching it at all number one because the woman in the movie used her own voice and not Amy Winehouse. One of the most unique things about Amy Winehouse was her voice. I would not want to hear somebody else sing her song so I have no desire to see it for that simple reason but I can also tell that the movie wasn’t done right just from the little bit of previous so I won’t be watching it at all. I’ll wait for somebody else to play Amy Winehouse and do it better and I’ll wait for somebody else to write a better script and I’ll watch it then, I won’t watch this at all and I hope the movie completely fails I’m not even gonna watch you review but I just want to leave my comment because I can’t stand the woman playing her. She looks nothing like Amy Winehouse. I believe this movie was made just to get this woman’s singing career going kinda like they did with Jennifer Lopez and Selena. They just use anybody but this thing about Selena is Jennifer Lopez new better than to use her voice this woman didn’t you’re playing a legendary singer? In my opinion why would you use your own disgusting voice to play somebody else who’s all legit? I have no respect for this woman. No respect for the actress. No respect for the people who made the movie and wrote the movie let somebody else do the movie.
