Well worth a watch, the good parts out do any flaws.

Rating: 8/10 (22 October 2018)

I found it challenging to believe that Ally would have gone from writing performing heartfelt music, to do quickly descend into that terrible asses and texts songs and dance routines. I think this bit was a bit over the top, but understood it's purpose as part of the film and relative to the demands/pressures of a young female artist at this time.
I have to say for me, the relationship in the film that steals the show is Jack and Bobby. This for me supplied the most powerful moment of the film even if it was perfectly understated and internalised acting.
Overall it's a fantastic effort from Cooper in both his capacity as an actor and now a director. Talented chap.
