Det är underligt att en film som handlar om en geniförklarad musiker handlar så lite om musik. Sam Taylor-Johnsons biopic om Amy Winehouse blir i stället en enkel undergångssaga.

Overview
The extraordinary story of Amy Winehouse’s early rise to fame from her early days in Camden through the making of her groundbreaking album, Back to Black that catapulted Winehouse to global fame. Told through Amy’s eyes and inspired by her deeply personal lyrics, the film explores and embraces the many layers of the iconic artist and the tumultuous love story at the center of one of the most legendary albums of all time.

The Guardian
Back to Black is essentially a gentle, forgiving film and there are other, tougher, bleaker ways to put Winehouse’s life on screen – but Abela conveys her tenderness, and perhaps most poignantly of all her youth, so tellingly at odds with that tough image and eerily mature voice.

Deadline
In those moments, we get a sense of Amy Winehouse on the rise, a superhero origins story in which certain elements coalesce to produce the elegantly surly, coifed and tatted icon represented on the poster.

The Hollywood Reporter
Marisa Abela, best known for her work on HBO’s Industry, manages to project Winehouse’s distinctive blend of fragility, intelligence and cornered-wildcat self-destructiveness.

Back to Black won’t please everybody, but it is a good, well-made film that tells part of Amy’s story with affection, sensitivity and a palpable respect for her talent.

Screen Daily
But Tayor-Johnson’s solid but pedestrian direction means that ‘Back To Black’ is never more than Amy Lite.

The story is narrated on a chaotic way, like if parts of the movie was left on the cutting room.
