Great Chemistry

Rating: 8/10 (20 February 2019)

Great film with a decent script and great chemistry between the leads. Lady Gaga pulls off a great performance, easily overshadowing Bradley Cooper. However, Cooper does great as a director, knowing how to stage scenes to deliver the punch.
My biggest quibble is with the pacing, or rather the fact that the movie slows down/gets predictable. This is not due to bad direction or script, but simply because the beginning is so captivatingly good and the fact that the main song comes in about one third into the movie.
Liked: -Lady Gaga's performance
-direction
-music (especially an early Cooper song)
-the chemistry between the leads
Disliked: -lacked a bit more relationship development or getting to onow Cooper's character more
-a bit too much lens glare
