8 Star

Rating: 8/10 (3 March 2019)

The first 2/3 of A Star is Born is absolutely fantastic. The relationship between the characters is strong, touching and believable. The songs are well written and flow nicely into the storytelling.
The last 1/3 of the movie drags on and loses the sparkle, humanity and human touch that the beginning of the movie has. It does not take away from the film, but does not live up to the first 2/3 of the movie.
Overall a wonderful film that is much better than the original versions.
