Best movie of the year. Cooper and Gaga were spectacular. All new music and it was performed by Cooper and Gaga themselves. Go early. We went to the 1:30 showing and even though we arrived at 12:50 the line inside was already to the exit door.

Great movie...Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper have great chemistry. Betting there will be multiple Oscar nominations for this movie. Excellent soundtrack.
Two advisories: A couple of the concert scenes were quite loud (especially the very first scone in the movie), and the language is one of the reasons for the R rating. And Charlie the dog is really Bradley Cooper's dog in real life.

I’ll have to see this, based on your comments, but I have to tell you, I am getting so tired of “retreads”. I suppose it makes sense that it costs less to develop (?), but I am seeing this in both movies and television. End of whining and griping.

Interesting youtube vid comparing four A Star is Born versions:

This said, the rest is A++. Cooper and Gaga are simply fantastic, and yes certainly award worthy. Interesting that one of Gaga's demands was no lip-synching and all singing was live. Absolutely worth the admission to see this movie (although was shocked that MoviePass had it available).

When the 1976 version came out, I was a sophomore in high school. A friend of mine and I tried to see the movie, but it was rated R so we were turned away. I convinced my mom to take me to see it a few days later. Mom and I enjoyed going to movies together.

I am definitely in the minority. I thought it was long and tedious. Chemistry between the stars lukewarm. Hard to hear dialogue. Cooper looked and acted the same sober or drunk (unless totally wasted). started looking at my watch with an hour left.

Saw it this afternoon at the Barnstorm theater with an audience of maybe 150 or more people. Really liked the film and Lady Gaga wrote most of the music.
Will probably see it again soon. |
