'A Star is Born' directed by Bradley Cooper

Image result for a star is born

I enjoyed it. It reminded me of the distant memory I have of the Kris Kristofferson Barbara Streisand version. Lots of singing, I enjoyed the behind the scenes of stardom feelings. Its about addiction and codependency, love and loss, success and failure. Lots of high stakes changes for the characters and tragic consequences. Its beautiful. Lady Gaga can sing and Bradley Cooper can act like Kris Kristoferson. Great character performances from Andrew Dice Clay as Gaga's Papa, and a very compelling performance from Sam Neil as Bradley Cooper's much older brother. I saw this movie with my aunt and we both totally enjoyed it. Its a Musical but its not, Its emotional but its simple to understand. Its a good time at the movies. Lots of lens flares, Too many lens flares. Its uplifting in that it really hammers home how cliche suicide is. You will want to buy a doodle. It will win all the Oscars

It delivers the power fantasy eucharist. And that's great but it leaves me feeling like I am in a pickle because the movie as a product is exactly what I wanted when I was a 13-year-old comic book kid, so they have me hooked. I don't need it anymore I am so much less interested in this type of hype machine movie. It really makes me realize that I don't really need this church I don't feel the excitement and I feel like I have seen it again and again and it makes me miss smarter shit, fucked up politically incorrect indie film. So it's appropriate that this movie feels like a big ending because it's also an ending for me I don't think I am going to see this type of movie in cinemas anymore.  This is the end of hype for me. I've made a decision and I am killing it dead. I'm old now an
