I saw it and there are scenes where you could swear it is Amy on screen for a second. Marisa did her justice.
So glad you said that! She captured Amy’s spirit x
I agree with you. Even though she doesn’t look identical something in those scenes made her look exactly like her. It must have been the acting. She was amazing
You need help.
Agree, even the voice was spot on.
@@jaidenofficial8746What a sad existence you must have to feel so compelled to seek attention through hate.
The casting agent for the movie deserves an Oscar as Marisa was just superb.
Nina, why didn’t you want Amy Dawson coming back in Game of Thrones?
I didn’t like when Marisa sang sorry 🥺
if only she could sing
Why all the hate??? She did a great great job and her voice is amazing !the movie was great
100% agree. cried the whole way through
she was great the movie was mediocre at best
She was absolutely fantastic! So good, I watched it twice in the cinema!
Exactly
I think she portrayed Amy very very well tbh. Her voice, her mannerisms, everything was on point, she did such a good job. I'm really excited to see her in more movies/series, she's really talented!
Bennett miller represents everything Sam Taylor Johnson has failed to become in life: good looking, talented and a MAN! Popcorn ready🍿🍿
Is everyone else just thinking how much Jack o'connell who played Blake looks like he could be Dermot O'Leary's little brother 😂
Yes I thought that too😊
I thought it WAS him 😂😂
@meganoxtoby me too 🤣🤣
Oh my gosh!!! Yes, I just left the cinema and said that to my mum 😂
@@CherryDreamer96 🤣🤣🤣🤣 was thinking it all the way through! X
Great acting nailed her mannerisms. Rest in peace Amy.
saw the film yesterday, and I have to say Marisa is so talented and she is really great in this movie!
The movie was ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT ❤
She may not look exactly like Amy, but Austin Butler didn't look like Elvis either, yet he played an amazing role, give her a chance folks
Amy was raw. You’re talking about two white men. Amy had something different and it would’ve been nice for them to really dig deep for that.
@@jazzyj904 so Elvis wasn't raw talent then drrrrrr , talk about missing the point of the film !!
Amy Dawson vs Marisa Arabella karaoke challenge 👑
@TrottersPad erm Austin Butler did look like Elvis! Obviously he can’t look exactly like him , but he was similar. Meanwhile this actress with her mockery accent was just not believable
@@8K9249wok Austin Butler looks like Austin Butler, but he portrayed Elvis superbly, also according to his family, according to Amy's ex husband, she portrayed her very well, especially in her mannerisms, so what do you know compared to those who actually knew Amy
@This Morning - Marissa Abela is clearly a lovely respectful person and human being. She totally researched everything about Amy Winehouse so as to give her justice in such a film as this representation of her as a person, her life and music. For that reason, Marissa was the perfect actress for this special role. To all those in the comments that are being completely disrespectful to the actress Marissa herself, simply because they are unhappy this film was made at all, be happy and respectful that this calibre of person and talented woman was chosen for this iconic role.
I adore her-- she also did a sensational job in "Industry."
She was absolutely brilliant in the role and her singing was spot on.
My goodness she's stunning 😮
Saw it last night, she did a great job
See it today and she played her brilliantly.
Watched it last night and it got me re listening to all her music again. Marisa was perfect for the job. Thank you ❤❤❤
Just came home from watching the movie and wow, made me cry 😢 she was a real artist and I'm so happy they bought this to the big screen.
I absolutely fell in love with Amy back in the day, her voice would take you to a special place…
All she needed was a hug and someone to care about her…..
So many times I just wanted to reach through the screen and just hold her 💔 so feisty but so vulnerable. Her music is very special. Got me through some really hard times. Such a shame she didn't get through hers 😢
This movie is really amazing. The singing scenes are so authentic, she finds words and just starts singing. On accapellas moments my jaw droped. And it felt like I am literally seing real Amy, listening to her singing
casting directors should get awards. Marisa is Amy. I am usually such a critic but this time no. I saw Amy live and Marisa had her off to a tee. She had me captured from the beginning. A great talent and wish her the best of luck for the future. I think she''ll win awards for this. love and light
From 2026 Oscar will award casting directors and I'm sure other award shows will follow suit
I feel an oscar coming here way. She was phenomenal. I loved Amy, my mam is an recovering addict and I just recognized my mam so much in her. The only celebrity death I have cried at
What a talented and professional performer Marissa is. She'll go far.
😂 lol jokes.
She absolutely will. Such an amazing, confident, talented woman! ❤
@Woodstock3211: She was incredible in this film. The Grammy speech was spot on! All of Amy’s mannerisms she smashed and moves on stage were haunting to see. I was mesmerised the whole way through. Well done, Marisa!
I could feel Amy in the auditorium, tonight. ❤
She was brilliant. Very talented
Went to watch it last night, wow!!!! She needs to win an award! Brilliant acting!
Watched movie today, good movie, Marisa did a great job! Was in tears many times.
What a woman, her approach to the role was perfect and it paid off
So many were dissing her before the film even came out and it was horrible to see. She did Amy so much justice and portrayed her so well!
Thank you so much, Marisa!!!!!❤You did such a great job. I love that movie, I love the music and I am very touched. Poor highly talented Amy!!!
Saw Back to Black yesterday and i thought Marisa, Jack and Eddie all did superbly in their roles. Such a tragic outcome of a very gifted and talented artist.
Amy was other worldly, I loved her dearly and miss her a lot.😢
Saw it today. She was superb, simple as that. The subtle little moves while singing, that somewhat awkward dancing Amy did on stage - she was a fabulous singer but one thing she wasn't was a trained dancer - and Marisa caught that brilliantly. As for the singing; Amy Winehouse has a unique and instantly recognisable vocal style and Marisa came very very close at times to capturing that. So much so that, unless you've listened really closely to Amy singing these songs and you've noted all the subtle nuances of her phrasing and delivery you'd be hard pushed at times to tell the difference. An award-worthy performance and I hope she gets the recognition she deserves.
Marisa Abela really incarnates this role and She played a very tough part like the iconic and legendary Amy, so She deserves a lot and i still have goosebumps thinkin about It. Congrats to Marisa and Amy'd have been amazed and proud of all this 🙏🙏🙏🙏👑👑
Can we just start placing that bet on Amy Dawson for Best Actress at the bookies already, I need to get rich🎉
I just saw it today..great movie and incredibly good performance from Marisa!
Just seen the movie, Marisa should get an Oscar for this performance. 👏 beautiful!
Marissa done an amazing job
I found it quite an emotional film
She was great in the movie❤
A lot of people dislike this film because they say she sounds nothing like Amy, but I guess you can't replicate such talent
Does look, sound or act like her
It's a bit naff this film.
Film is Brilliant!
@@shaka7594please seek help❤
SHE NAILED IT.
this actor was /is incredible in this rôle.
i barely stopped crying /because/ of this performance.
Probably because you’ve got ptsd❤
Marisa is a goddess she's painfully gorgeous her smile is killer, I watched the film yesterday and her performance was phenomenal, I'd never heard of Marisa before but after yesterday I'm instant fan of hers
she did AMAZING
Best film ever! Love Amy and now Marisa. She made this movie beautiful. Every time she sang we all just welled up, a stunning performance ❤
I saw the film yesterday and it was Amazing! There were times were she almost looked identical to Amy and she sounded great. I know this films getting a lot of stick and bad feedback but it’s honestly such a great biopic. I went into this loving Amys music but not know much about her, it was so sad but told beautifully. People saying “oh cast Raye, Lady Gaga instead!” NO ONE will ever beat Amy Winehouse, she was her own person her own voice. I think Marisa did an amazing job at portraying her. Definitely go and watch this film
I agree there was quite a few times that she looked identical to Amy!
She played the part of Amy 💯 percent brilliant
She was fantastic as Amy, Film is brilliant!
Unbelievable talent… ❤
She did so good
Simply AMAZING ……Marisa definitely deserves an Oscar 🤩🤩💕💕🥳🥳🎉🎉
I watched it tonight. She did an awesome job, I loved it
One of the most amazing performances in a biopic I've ever seen. Marisa Abela is an amazing actress and I think she'll become a superstar herself in time.
She was stunning just watched yesterday
Just watched back to black and it was amazing
Saw it today. Master piece!
It was brilliant... Marisa was amazing... amazing voice too! ❤
I wanna go see the Amy Winehouse movie "Back to Black" when it comes out on May the seventeenth here in the U.S.
Worth seeing. Saw it today.
I literally just marked my calendar to see it! Hello from Phoenix, Arizona USA!
You won't be disappointed, it's fantastic
Amazing film I loved it
She did an amazing job! Outstanding!!!
She did SO well in this movie. She's a great actress and she really embodied Amy and her feelings and mannerisms fantastically. She must be very proud of herself ❤
A star is born. Very talented actress.
As a musician I'm really looking forward to this film. I think its going to be a masterpiece
I loved the movie. Marisa did a fantastic job. Casting was brilliant overall. RIP Gorgeous Amy 😢💔 we miss you so much x
Going to see this for my birthday next weekend ❤
She did an amazing job!
Gran actriz! Hoy vi la pelicula e hizo un papel extraordinario. Era como verla a amy por momentos, me encantó..
In some scenes they did a great job of making her look like Amy, i watched the movie on the 17th april it was very enjoyable to watch if you like amys music then defo go watch.
Dermot is the ringer for Blake the actor in this movie it's uncanny !!! Fabulous film I'm a massive Amy fan abs girl you did amazing I want to watch it again the weekend so so good x
She deserves an Oscar. What a performance. Wow!!!
Great work Marisa!
Loved this film, and she was phenomenal
Good film. Needed to be longer though just to expand on aspects more. The musical pieces are excellent. Relationships complex over a glossy image. Songs sounds great on cinema speakers.
Totally agree. Thought it was a very watchable film with some great performances and musical moments. The framing of Amy's experiences did lack depth and nuance in places, but I think this version tells a specific story, rather than offer a complete introspection
I watched it twice in cinema it’s such a phenomenal film! She did Amy so much justice ! This film has made me go completely sober (I’m 20) thankyou so much Marisa and Jack amazing work !
Such special movie. I was moved and sad at the end. I appreciate Amy even more after this movie. ❤
Saw it last night and it was amazing 😭. Cried a quite a bit, especially the relationship with her Naan.
Me encantó la película 🥰🥰
She was wonderful! ❤
I love her and she nailed the role definitely a new fan!
She embodied her so well, an amazing film ❤
Just come out of cinema after seeing this. Fantastic film and superb acting. And the actor who played Blake. Reminds me of Dermot O’Leary
Marisa was perfect and she's just so beautiful
Stunning performance by Marisa enjoyed every minute
Great movie. Had me in tears a few times. Amy was only a few years younger than me… I just wish things had turned out differently for her. ❤
This film has shot into my top ten favourite all time films ❤️
She is amazing as Amy.
An excellent performance by Marisa.
She was excellent👌🏻
🖤
Beautifully said Marissa.
Although her legacy will live on through her music, this film shouldn’t have been made. It doesn’t and no film will ever capture the real Amy.🖤
Agree.
Marisa you have an amazing voice & your a great actor well done - the guy that played Blake was brilliant too & obvs Eddie Marsen was also very good as he always is brilliant - loved the film & I feel they really captured Amy’s personality well done
A Christmas Carol is going to sweep at the Oscars. All but Best Supporting Actress
Saw it today and she and the whole film was amazing
Marisa is very convincing as Amy and the way she can sing is amazing!
I like the film and i fall in love with amy again May she rest in peace
Saw the movie yesterday and my partner kept saying “I see Britney” and after sitting with that, I definitely see Britney in this actress
If she does a Britney film after portraying Amy that's gunna be even more disrespectful than this film
Marisa is gorgeous
She did such a good job
Brilliant film ,well done 🎉
I love Allison's new face x
Creepy…🤭🤭🤭
Absolutely brilliant film, the actress who portrayed her brilliant. Can't tell the difference between the two.😮😮😮
Just seen the movie, she was fantastic. Nailed the casting
Fantastic actress she did her justice ❤
As a huge Amy fan I was worried I wouldn't enjoy this and that the performance wouldn't capture Amy especially the voice but I take it back. This performance was fantastic. Her voice was so so good
Great film and a great actress 🎉🎉
