Lady Gaga fabulous, Bradley Cooper not so much.

Rating: 7/10 (8 October 2018)

I probably would have given this movie a 9 or 10 if Bradley Cooper's performance had made more sense. Cooper has been such a strong force in every film I have seen him in but his portrayal of Jack as a mumbling moron, barely able to speak intelligibly even when sober just didn't ring true. It's not logical that such a sophomoric personality would have risen to stardom and convinced a sensible woman to marry him. Its like he was trying to channel Kris Kristofferson, a truly limited actor in every way.
Lady Gaga has made me a fan. Perhaps Cooper should stick to roles under the direction of others.
