Elyse M well done, believable characters, but for me, it was just a little flat. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/25/24 Full Review Stef One of the best movies and soundtracks of all time. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/01/24 Full Review iris It was actually 'A Star Is Born' (1976) with Barbra Streisand & Krist Krisrofferson. This was the best version. Way better than the 2018 Lady Gaga. I LOVE Barbra Streusand. Music was wonderful. Acting wonderful. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/23/24 Full Review Rob G So I just completed a marathon of all 4 “A Star is Born” movies. Here is my assessment of each in oder from Best to Least good. In all 4, a young, talented woman is discovered by an older, declining male star. They fall in love, marry, and her career rises while his falls due to addiction. Tragedy strikes when he dies by suicide, prompting her emotional tribute at the end. 2018 – The best version starring Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper. Deals with the modern music industry. The music is really good in this one. Not sure I really buy the chemistry of the two actors. Cooper plays his role as a complete mess really well. 1954 – This could have been the best had it now been for some minor flaws. Stars Judy Garland and James Mason. Very good production and both actors do a great job. Seems overly long and the musical numbers are dated by today’s standard. Had they not committed so much to the musical numbers, I would have rated it the best version. Also, minor annoyance comes from having the longer restored scenes added as some of the video is lost and replaced with still photos while the audio continues which is very annoying. 1937 – Stars Janet Gaynor and Fredric March. This is the shorter of the group. They could have made it longer and developed the characters more but, hey, it was 1937. 1976 – Stars Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson. Kristofferson does a good job in his role. However, I wish they had got a really Outlaw Country or Rock artist to portray the female lead. Streisand’s music just doesn’t cut it for what they were trying to pull off. As a result, it’s a little hard to watch. Also, does he commit suicide in the end or just have an accident? Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/21/25 Full Review K G For me, this just seemed to drag on with not many plot highlights or climaxes... Not sure why everyone says it was such a great movie. Like, "great"? What parts? Lady Gaga is great, her performance carried the movie... Bradley Cooper, on the other hand, was an epic bore the whole film. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/08/25 Full Review Audience Member People really and truly overlook Lady GaGa's poor acting because she can sing a bit well? Honestly, if they replaced her with a theatrically trained actress it would have been a thousand times better. She just cannot act.
