Really phenomenal acting, directing and cinematography. The music blew me away. The costumes needed a little work. Loved the Judy Garland (which for those not in the know did the first remake) easter egg as well as some of the reference to the styling of Cabaret (1972). A little melodramatic and though I did shed a few tears, this is not a movie that I think will go down in history as something that changed the course of cinema. I do think though that it once again proves what a phenomenal artist Lady Gaga is and will be remembered as one of her career highlights. Admittedly an absolutely incredible directing debut for Bradley Cooper. If this is where he starts from, there is a lot of amazing potential for us to see amazing future projects. It was a little lighter in its presentation than what I expected, but definitely worth the time, money and effort to go see on the big screen.
