Mystify: Michael Hutchence

Mystify avoids sensationalizing Hutchence's life and instead illuminates a more three-dimensional, nuanced view of Hutchence's personality.

I was frustrated by this doc in that there was so much amazing footage and yet, for me, I couldn't get much of a sense of who Michael Hutchence was on a deep level.

[A] strikingly original portrait of an enigmatic man.

Enlightening and affecting, providing a missing piece in the puzzle of a life prematurely ended.

Beyond some unnecessary wild speculations, Mystify does a decent job in offering up a clear narrative arc which is more than enough to keep us hooked till the very end.

Another ruminative contemplation of talent, fame and fortune providing no inoculation against heartbreak and self-destruction.

A touching tribute to one of music's most misunderstood showmen...

ustralia's sweetheart Kylie Minogue bares herself like never before, physically and emotionally, in Mystify: Michael Hutchence, the heartbreaking new documentary about the late INXS frontman.

Mystify is the first documentary about Michael Hutchence that was made for the big screen. It's the best way to experience this stellar film, which does justice to a larger-than-life talent that was taken away too soon.

Although it's a bit of a mishmash of grainy videos and media footage, the journey is always engaging. Unlike a lot of music biographies that tell you how to feel, Mystify gives its audience the space and wherewithal to put the pieces together.
