Too much information, everything scattered around with little to no meaning. The movie introduces parts of Amy's life's struggles without any explanation. No mention of her bulimia (she's seen throwing up once and her roommate mentions she's been sick for a week - the roommate then disappears). No idea why she falls so hard for Blake (we get nothing about their relationship struggles, nothing about why the relationship becomes so toxic). She hangs out with girlfriends at first but these relationships are not explored. During the first part of the movie she basically swears she won't even come close to drugs just to see her calling up a dealer. Once again, no explanation provided as to what changed. In several scenes we see she has lost a tooth, just for it to be shown to have it back. There was also no need for the actress to sing every single song. A shallow representation of a great and complex artist.
