About this movie

Nominated for 8 Academy Awards and the winner for Best Original Song "Shallow," A Star Is Born returns with an extended cut. A Star Is Born Encore features nearly 12 minutes of extended music performances, intimate jam sessions with Jackson and Ally, and all new scenes. Seasoned musician Jackson Maine (Bradley Cooper) discovers—and falls in love with—struggling artist Ally (Lady Gaga). She has just about given up on her dream to make it big as a singer… until Jack coaxes her into the spotlight. But even as Ally’s career takes off, the personal side of their relationship is breaking down, as Jack fights an ongoing battle with his own internal demons.

Rarely is the remake better than the original, except for now. Gaga's 3 dimensional performance, non nasal vocals & love for Jackson is so much more intoxicating than watching Streisand strut & celebrate herself in the former version of A.S.I.B. Jackson Maine, unlike John Norman, is so beautiful, so much more pleasant to listen to & so much more likable than John Norman played by Kris Kristofferson, that when events occur, you truly feel them. This is a very good remake!

I thought from the hype that it would be good. Lesson learned. This was a terrible movie. The acting was some of the worst I've seen, so bad I couldn't waste my time to finish watching This BOMB is a waste of time. Don't bother with it.

Good movie solid acting all the way around wasn't a lady GaGa fan but she was incredible in this shocked Cooper didn't get an oscar too. Very good production and acting anyone who doesn't like the acting must be a pee wee big top fan. Music was good and updated the last. Which I saw at a drive in in the 1970's.
