Not what I expected

Rating: 7/10 (6 October 2018)

The movie might be called "a star is born" but it is much more of a love story than a story about fame. Gaga and Cooper both shine and sound brilliantly, the Music is incredible and delivers instant classics and ballads that resemble the greatest ballads of the 90s. This truly is Gaga's Bodyguard moment and she proves once more to be one of the most talented singer and songwriters of our decade. I absolutely loved the first part of the movie. However, things start to change in the middle of the film and I was missing some depths to understand how the characters, especially Ally, feel about it or how this change came to happen. Some scenes seemed to repeat itself and in the last part the movie was kinda slow. The end however blew me away.
Overall, the movie was a lot different than I expected but it was still a good movie that will cement Gaga's legacy as one of the greats.
