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:

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

UK fans keep saying the soundtrack is sold out, but fail to mention it's only sold out on Amazon USA...it hasn't sold out on Amazon UK. (Yet)

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.

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

Same tbh, me and my friend were the only under 50 in the cinema, I'd guess. Gags snatching the older crowd's coins :clap1:

Wizard. 05-10-2018 04:19 PM

Ugh Heal Me is a bop

Zizu 05-10-2018 04:19 PM

I was hoping they'd at least have Evergreen as a nod to Barbara ..

I agree with this. It's one of the few films I would go and watch again in the cinema.

Defintely agree with this, I found it quite hard to understand Jackson’s brother at times too, and he wasn’t even playing drunk :o

From what I’ve heard the latter part of the film happens quickly in the other films too in relation to *that* so I think it was a conscious choice.

The atmosphere in the cinema was amazing, I’ve never been in a showing before where you could here a pin drop at the credits and I guess it’s just a testament to how enthralled everyone was in the final performance

Daniel. 05-10-2018 06:32 PM

Me and Jordan are seeing this tomorrow lol

It better be WORTH

Zizu 05-10-2018 06:56 PM

If she's just singing her own songs it will just be a two hour long promotional video surely

They’re not her own songs, they are songs written specifically for the film by both Gaga and Bradley

Wizard. 05-10-2018 07:34 PM

Might go watch again for a sob

Yes, the real emotional parts of the movie are made all the more heartbreaking by the haunting chorus of LoveGame.

Well you heard wrong :shrug:

Smithy 05-10-2018 07:51 PM

Y’all wanna know what makes the last scene of the film even sadder? Her best friend died the day she filmed it :bawling:

How convenient. :suspect:

Gaga committing murder as part of her method acting?
