Nothing Compares

Sinead O'Connor was ahead of her time and Americans never understood her so it should be no surprise the Prince Estate didn't allow the film to use her titular song. There is so much more to the singer than this, but this film focuses on the early part of her career. This isn't a wide-ranging documentary. I wasn't a huge fan, but you'll have to be to like this. It is well made but there are no talking heads, just voices which is a touch distracting. Beautiful defiant eyes and an amazing voice. Non-conformists aren't the enemy, often they are the solution. Amazing America didn't appreciate debate or freedom of expression or speech. Shocking. Final Score: 7/10

Brilliantly constructed film. Deeply moving.

Nothing Compares is a beautifully edited, written and directed film. It has many insights and inspires understanding. I wish Sinead was still with us

Brilliant documentary, what a very brave lady, she stood up for everything that was right, she was definitely ahead of time in her views, definitely a must see, if I could give it 10 stars I would..

Showing a true artist; expressing herself through music. Ignoring public opinion, not opting for a shallow existence, not caring what the fickle media wrote about her.. the documentary shows her ahead of her time, a lasting eternal force of nature - a moving depiction of raw beautiful talent.

This documentary was really well done. She was 30 years ahead of her time and stronger than 99% of the rest of us.

Excellent portrait of a woman so ahead of her time.

So far before her time, impressive!

For fans and people who are only somewhat aware of Sinéad's story and body of work, this is a succinct summary of her early life and practice. I won't go into detail about the content of the film itself, you can read or hear about it anywhere, it's all a matter of historic fact. The filmmaking itself is really gorgeous, an artistic document. You could watch it with the sound off. You could listen to it without the image. It's image and it's essence are as powerful as Sinéad herself. Really well made piece of film. It also gives great context to the ongoing iconoclastic activism. This documentary is not any mere biopic. It's a piece of anti-war activism, an anti-abuse statement, an offering of gratitude to anybody who has ever sought enlightenment.

Blew Me Away! I was very entertained and enlightened by her courage.
