Excellent film!

Rating: 9/10 (16 October 2018)

If you enjoy romantic dramas, then this film is well worth your time and money.
The negative reviews on here reflect trolls who don't like this genre...so why would those people watch then give a bad review??!!??
In honest reflection, this film is excellent!
Gritty, funny and big hearted!
Yes, there are a couple of 'cheesy' screens where Gaga bursts into song etc. However, in the main - Gaga's performance is great! She brings you into Ally's journey and you believe she is Ally!
The music is good but plays safe...I guess to appeal to as many people as possible.
Now, Bradley Coopers acting and directing are outstanding!
The film addresses zeitgeist subjects with heartfelt sensitivity.
Coopers exploration into Jackson Mains mental state and how this is portrayed on screen is exceptional!
There are screens where the camera looks into Jackson's eyes...and you know exactly what the character is thinking and feeling. This has the effect of immersing you into the film and emotional journey! These screens are an exceptional peice of film making and acting!!!
Now given the premise of the film, this could have gone horribly wrong - Gagas big screen debut - remake of a classic - unestablished flim crew...etc.
This team pull off an epic achievement as this is indeed, an excellent film!
