A Disappointment is Born

Rating: 5/10 (28 November 2018)

Who are the people who are losing their heads over this movie? Was this their first trip to the movies? It's a fantastic movie... IF YOU NEVER WATCHED A FRIGGIN MOVIE IN YOUR LIFE. The music in the movie was definitely a big enjoyment. Bradley Cooper's singing was a delight. His debut as a musician was worth to watch. As for the rest of the movie. Where do I begin?! The good old prince swoops in and saves a poor Cinderella from the misery of her reality. Yawn! The prince kills himself was a good plot twist. But boy it came out of nowhere. A sleazy music producer tells him something and he goes hangs himself. The story did have a good potential but the execution wasn't good. Lady Gaga's acting was unconvincing. I wasn't feeling any of her heroes emotions. Neither was Cooper anything above the ordinary. This was supposed to be a man with a lot of inner battle that kills himself so he isn't a burden to the love of her life. But only thing I saw was a static regular drunk that failed to show any emotional growth nor fall. Last but not least, Lady Gaga's character's music career went from Aretha Franklin to go-go dancing J-Lo. And apparently that's amazing. Oh well, at least the music in the first half of the movie was good.
