Grace Jones: Bloodlight and Bami

"Shot over several years, the entertaining but meandering off-stage material seems too dazzled by Jones' mega-watt persona. The real action happens on stage, where Jones is a one-woman riot."

"This portrait of Grace Jones meanders a bit, preferring a loose series of intimate moments to anything too slick or traditional. But with moments like these, who cares?"

"For the uninitiated, the viewing experience will be incredibly vague, devoid of backstory, context, history or canonical importance."

"[Grace Jones'] star quality only gets more intense."

"An entertaining, engaging and somewhat enlightening look at a complicated woman."

"A unique way to encapsulate the life and character of an artist."

"Fiennes rejects rock-doc conventions like talking heads, archive footage and linear narrative. Which is commendably bold on one level, but may leave some viewers scratching their heads and craving a little more context."

"A beautiful and intimate documentary experience."

"An engaging, visually striking attempt to uncover the 'real' Grace Jones which is only partially successful in those terms. Nonetheless, it's still a fitting tribute to a music icon."
