  • The story wasn't incredibly interesting or engaging and the writing could have definitely been better, but I thought the music in A Star is Born was pretty excellent.

  • Lady Gaga is so good in this. Wish the story was more engaging, but is carried by the sheer force that is Gaga's voice. Cooper at possibly his best as well. Think it is great, but this particular story doesn't need to be remade anymore.

  • Lady Gaga has fashioned herself a great actress in recent years, but this ultimately felt like it dragged on a lot. Did not do wonders to establish Cooper as a director, though I think he partially redeemed himself with Maestro.

  • I'm only 11 and I'm not allowed to watch any of it except the songs, which are top-notch but I will deduct a few stars for the reasons I'm not allowed to watch it all.

  • This gets a 2 star rating instead of one because I like Lady Gaga. Bradley Cooper is better elsewhere.

A Star is Born Review: Cooper & Gaga Write a (Not So) Bad Romance
8/10

Fueled by strong performances and Cooper's precise direction, A Star is Born is a moving (and tear-jerking) love story by way of showbiz melodrama.
