Wouldn't be at all surprised if Bradley Cooper picks up big directorial award nods for this at all.

Unlimted card screening full and it got applauded at the end too

AHHHHHHH :flutter: So glad to hear it

What did you think of the final song in the film/the impact? It's the only song I haven't listened to bc I want to embrace it in the moment of what its about, after *that* happens

..I don’t know if it’s a happy day at all, Smithy....I have a bit of a dilemma...I’m jumping off my chair atm so wanting to see it NOW...so if I want to see it in the lovely cinema..?...they don’t have any availability for weeks...(..it’s such a small cinema with few showings and all great new releases have full bookings well in advance...)...or I could try for a matinee at Cineworld now, which hopefully would be okay mid week and at a quiet afternoon time...I don’t know what to do...

Well OBVIOUSLY you should go see it as soon as possible :amazed:

I think If you see it once in a cineworld you’ll enjoy it, but then when you see it the second time in your private/smaller cinema you’ll appreciate it more bc you’ll notice little things that you missed out on the first time, so yes, ASAP ammi!

Wizard. 03-10-2018 07:29 PM

Sack them off and go without loov! You’ll probably enjoy it more

Smithy 04-10-2018 08:47 PM

omg I CANT https://atrl.net/uploads/emoticons/jonny5.gif

Smithy 04-10-2018 09:00 PM

It was SO good, the music was incredible, the cinematography, her acting, his acting

https://atrl.net/uploads/emoticons/jonny5.gif

The cinema was full, but me and my friends were the youngest there, the place was packed with groups of middle aged women(a scream), the last 15/20 minutes are phenomenal, my best friend was balling throughout - and she said she was holding back and was going to have a proper cry when she gets home :laugh2:

The final song is incredible, completes the trio of movie ballads - My Heart Will Go On, I Will Always Love You and I'll Never Love Again https://atrl.net/uploads/emoticons/jonny5.gif

Wizard. 04-10-2018 09:17 PM

Amazing, i wasn’t overly keen on Bradley’s songs (even though he sounds great on them)

There’s 3 really pop songs too that the gays will love (Hair, Body, Face/Why did you do that/Heal Me) my faves are I’ll Never Love Again (this song is gonna be her My Heart Will Go On/I will always love you) Is that alright? (Which isn’t even in the bloody film, only plays over the credits :fist:) and Always remember us this way

would you recommend listening to it before seeing the film? i've only heard the shallow

I listened to Heal Me, Why Did You Do That, Hair Body Face and Is That Alright? before hand, the first three don’t get performed in full and don’t really add much to the film and then I listened to ITA bc gags posted the teaser and it sounded amazing/I doubt my friends would have let me sit through the credits to listen to the whole song.

I’d say you could listen to the whole soundtrack beforehand but save Always Remember Us This Way/both versions of Ill Never Love Again for the film

Smithy 04-10-2018 10:07 PM

Willam and Shangela are a ****ing scream in it btw

Nancy. 05-10-2018 11:03 AM

I'm listening to the OST now and while it's bogged down with unnecessary dialogues, I quite liked some of the songs.

"Always Remember Us This Way", "Look What I Found", "Music To My Ears", "I Don't Know What Love Is", "I'll Never Love Again" :love:

Nicky91 05-10-2018 12:39 PM

honestly i like the music more because i hear Bradley Cooper sing for the first time, and he is quite a good singer :flutter:

Nancy. 05-10-2018 12:55 PM

Always Remember Us this Way is becoming my new fav

Tom4784 05-10-2018 04:11 PM

Just come back from seeing it. It is very worthy of the hype. Lady Gaga's incredible, Bradley Cooper does a very good job although his choice in how he speaks inhibits his performance I think, he's always grumbling and it's quite difficult to make out what he's saying half the time. Still it's a strong performance and I expect they'll both be nominated for an Oscar in a few months time although it'll only be Gaga that walks away with one I think.

I heard that the film was quite emotional and, for me, it really didn't become emotional until the last few minutes but when it got me, it got me.

Spoilers for the end.
Spoiler:

The film felt overly long in places but it made the weird decision to not cover Ally's reaction to Jack's suicide or the immediate aftermath and I think that robbed the film of a lot of it's emotional punch... Until the last song that is, I could legitimately hear people sobbing in the cinema.


It's a 10/10 tbh. My only criticism is that it's a bit long in the wrong places but still, it's not a huge drawback.
