Back to Black left me speechless. Marisa Abela nailed that role. I kept forgetting that I wasn’t actually watching Amy Winehouse. She perfected Amy’s mannerisms and voice. It was an absolute delight watching her take control.
I’ve been a fan of Amy Winehouse from the very beginning, she had the most beautiful way of singing. It was like her soul took over on every song she sang. Marisa Abela was able to accomplish that in an elegant way that took the movie to a whole other level.

Her life is heartbreaking. Most of her problems were widely shown through the tabloids and papers, but I learned a few things in Back to Black that I hadn’t known. So if you’re an Amy Winehouse fan I highly recommend it.
Grade: A
About The Peetimes: I added 2 Peetimes, if hard drug use is upsetting to you, I’d recommend the 2nd Peetime.
There are no extra scenes during, or after, the end credits of Back to Black.
What people are saying about the RunPee app.
Brilliant idea with great information
I’ve been using RunPee for a few years now and it’s basically a requirement of going to the movies for me. The best part of course are the “pee times” that give you cues, synopses and times for when you can pee without missing the most important parts of the movie. There is also information about the credits- length, extras and if there are any extra scenes at the wayyy end. Super helpful to just know that it is or isn’t worth staying. There is a timer function that will buzz your phone when it’s a good time to pee. I also appreciate that the app is very conscientious about it being an app you use in a theater- dark background, all silent alarms etc. I will always enjoy the experience of the theater even if I could watch things at home- but I’ve even used it at home to check for things like after credit scenes or other information too.
