I think it should not be recommended for one reason. Profanity. F... word about 10 times a minute. COMPLETE disrespect for females in the audience. I do not ubderstand how any female could recommend it. Beyond that, the story flow was "bumpy" and in places down right disconnected or disjointed. Holywood has made way too many of these stories into movies. We did not NEED this one. I never heard if Bradley Cooper before and i dont like (scruffy) him. There was little reason i could see why a clean cut kid like Lady Gaga would like him. Give me a break. No voice, OBVIOUS alcoholic, liar, weak. At the end for me, i said good. He'd just continue to ruin her life anyway.
As for Lady Gaga, nice performance, but not oscar nomination worthy. Close, but no cigar. Her singing rated the same. She is nowhere near the scale of Adele. And i will NEVER admire her again for doing this movie, showing total disrespect of females.
Those who recomnend this movie, should watch again, with a more critical eye. If it recieves one nomination, i will be disgusted.
