Back to Black

"As salacious and cruel as any tabloid cutting from the noughties."

"Presents (Amy's self-destruction), even revels in it, without giving you the sense that it fully understands it."

"A solid performance let down by a script that cherry-picks the facts."

"Abela conveys (Amy's) tenderness, and perhaps most poignantly of all her youth."

"Like its heroine, flawed and fallible but frequently very affecting."

"Ducks away from saying anything truly enlightening."

"A competent if occasionally clunky biopic, enlivened by a superb Marisa Abela."

"I breaks its own promise to concentrate on – and celebrate – Winehouse's music."

"Never more than Amy Lite."

"It’s decent casting: Abela has sass and savvy in abundance."

"Taylor-Johnson does a decent job of making a tight drama from the same tragic yarn."

"At worst, it lingers on (Amy's) misfortune, albeit in the most sanitized, estate-friendly way possible."
