I loved Amy through out her career and I held off on watching this movie because I was afraid it was going to focus more on her downfall, then her as a whole. Boy, was I pleasantly surprised and proved wrong when I finally gave into watching it. It shows her from the very beginning, before she was famous, to her very last days and everything in between, which I really appreciate. I feel as though too many people got to know her in the wrong light in the end, so I was so happy to see this portray her from every angle, even the jarring truth, which I thought was going to be candy coated but ended up not and was done so well. It really shows her true personality, her desire to succeed in making great music rather than becoming famous, then being sucked dry by not only her disease, but by those who percieved her as a cash cow rather than someone who was begging for help in an un conventional way because she never truly had the chance to grow up and out. Every minute is worth watching, but be prepared to cringe in more way than one.
