Fine, though kind of messy

Rating: 6/10 (4 November 2018)

I watched the film with hopes, keeping in mind the film with Kristoffersson and Streisand. There were too much handheld scenes, which didn't really help to dynamizm the film. Jack character was too little star to believe. It had been rather heavy drinking idol which was visible in all possible ways as being trash. Lady Gaga... Her story starts well. She syncs with Jack playing, song writing. They have this common complement sense of music. The lift of Ally as solo changes her from sensible rock artist to glam pop performer. And she just glides with it, doesn't notice it is not her anymore. It is not the person she was found. And that element is missing in film. Dissonance between Jack and Ally. That was something underexposed.
Songs, outmost fine. Shallow had been certain hit. But the final concert scene song... Could it be more than Whitney Huston - like? The whole melody line, Gaga's singing - it was like copycat. By the purpose? Bow to Whitney and her sunset if life? Somehow, it was annoying. I had the feeling as it was written for another film, another actor, another singer. Beyonce on the scene?
