Amy shows us the vibrant and all-too-vulnerable person behind the tabloid caricature, and will make you hate yourself for ever having laughed at Jay Leno or the many other comedians who used her as the butt of a cheap joke.

Tawdry ... the perfect documentary for an age of leering, intrusive celebrity culture, and enthusiastic, gossipy prurience.

Amy is a tough watch, but you must.

It's a shockingly sad film, a reminder that great artists are often troubled beings and that the pop world is not a safe place for them.

The film will leave you feeling exhausted -- it's vibrant, haunting and, I've probably overused it, but also overwhelmingly sad.

It's Amy's words, her music, her voicemails, her home videos, her friends, her family, her tormentors, and her timeless incandescence. Look, listen and weep.

If you're a fan of documentaries, the film is worth seeing -- even if you aren't a fan of Winehouse's music -- because it's a remarkable piece of curation.

There are a couple of scenes in Asif Kapadia's new Amy Winehouse documentary, Amy, that make the fame-industrial complex seem rock-bottom awful.

Plenty of folks praise Winehouse in "Amy." But no one was there to save her. Perhaps it wasn't possible. But perhaps it was.

The film is often uncomfortable to watch, prompting that little voice inside each of us to scream out "Somebody help her!"

A mesmerizing yet devastating look at a singular talent.

A powerful, and powerfully sad, experience.
