I hope Sam Taylor-Johnson burns in hell for being a predator and creating this disrespectful monstrosity of a movie. This movie is choppy and paints Amy differently than what she really was. If you want to learn about Amy or if you love Amy DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE!!!
𝚅𝚒𝚌𝚔 dislikedBack to BlackI dislike anything made by a groomer.
Jen is "meh" onBack to BlackThis was frustrating to watch. It made it feel like Amy cannot do anything without a man and falls to pieces without one. It doesn’t focus on the amazing things she did or her talent. Just on everything she did wrong. Also way too long.

Francesco Bitonti dislikedBack to BlackDONT WATCH THIS MOVIE IF U LIKE AMY. they misinterpretate her relationship with father, there is LITERALLY NOTHING about the working process of Back to Black and there is more less about her multicultural influences and her ideas. She was not just a rebel teen, she was a genius

Back to back unwatchable. I'll start off by saying I'm not much of an Amy fan, but she was definitely talented. The casting and acting in general was terrible. More importantly, I couldn't see the Amy resemblance at all, even in costume. I don't blame the actors because the script has some of the…
Steven Shapiro likedBack to Black"Back To Black" isn't the monumentous story it's wants to be, but I think if you're looking for a small snipit of a troubled celebrity's life, then this is the movie for you. It featured a strong lead performance but lacked the emotional punch it should have carried. 6/10
Taylor Winters likedBack to BlackThe music is fantastic in this. I liked the movie but after reading all the comments and reviews on this movie, I feel like I need to see a different biography on her that highlights her inspirations more. Her relationship with Blake and the negative moments in her life are highlighted more,…

Metacritic
Apr 9, 2024
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.

As much as the party line insists this film is a celebration of Amy’s musical genius, it is as salacious and cruel as any tabloid cutting from the noughties – only invested in the bloody ballet pump left in the street, not the complexities of living a very public life with addiction.

At its best, Back to Black, the forthright and compelling movie that’s been made of Winehouse’s life, takes that light/dark balance and digs into the drama of it, making it sing.
