Marco Antonio P "A Star Is Born" is a profoundly moving and unforgettable cinematic experience. Bradley Cooper, in his directorial debut, does an exceptional job, bringing a classic narrative to new life with depth and vitality. His performance as Jackson Maine is raw and authentic, revealing the complexities of a declining artist.Lady Gaga is the true revelation of the film. Her portrayal of Ally is powerful and vulnerable, showcasing an impressive emotional range. The chemistry between Cooper and Gaga is palpable, making their characters' journey even more engaging.The soundtrack is one of the film's greatest triumphs, with songs like "Shallow" and "Always Remember Us This Way" not only complementing the story but also standing out on their own. The musical performances are electrifying and emotionally charged.In summary, "A Star Is Born" is a film that touches the heart and leaves a lasting impression. It is a modern masterpiece that celebrates the power of music and love, reaffirming the extraordinary talent of its protagonists. Highly recommended for any lover of cinema and music.

Has a cool to stellar soundtrack. I was really engaged. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/19/24 Full Review Ionela C Not bad. Yesterday i saw the original 1937 version and absolutely liked it. It's a brilliant one. I love the premise so much. The original is not a musical, it was about two actors. There are 4 versions of the story, three of them are musicals. My goal is to see all versions of the stories. The only reason i gave this version 4 stars is because i didn't really liked the first half of the story, i hated the insta love and at first i throught that this gonna be more of a love story, than a story about the fame, but nope. The second half was about the price of fame and now i want to cry so bad. Damn, Gaga your voice is pure gold and i'm pretty sure that this version have the best soundtrack. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/02/24 Full Review Read all reviews
