Adequate pop flick

Rating: 6/10 (6 January 2019)

The story about a pop star who falls in love with an amateur singer who then becomes a superstar, goes nowhere very slowly. It's hard to work out what the central theme is, it's not a rags to riches story, it's not about the rock stars battle with alcohol abuse or a father's love for his daughter. The film meanders along slowly and leaves you wondering. However, the acting is good and Lady Gaga is excellent.
