A Star is Born (Lady GaGa & Bradley Cooper) The POPCORN JUNKIES Movie Review

- On paper this ISN'T a film Nadia OR Mark would like. Rock music? Lady Ga Ga? A remake of a remake ...
A Star Is Born is a 2018 American musical romantic drama film produced and directed by Bradley Cooper, in his directorial debut. Cooper wrote the screenplay with Will Fetters and Eric Roth. A remake of the 1937 film of the same name, it stars Cooper, Lady Gaga, Andrew Dice Clay, Dave Chappelle, and Sam Elliott, and follows a hard-drinking musician (Cooper) who discovers and falls in love with a young singer (Gaga). It marks the third American remake of the original 1937 film (which featured Janet Gaynor and Fredric March), which was adapted into a 1954 musical (starring Judy Garland and James Mason) and then remade as a 1976 rock musical with Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson.
Talks of a third A Star Is Born remake began in 2011 with Clint Eastwood attached to direct and Beyoncé set to star. The film languished in development hell for several years with various actors approached to co-star, including Christian Bale, Leonardo DiCaprio, Will Smith, and Tom Cruise. In March 2016, Cooper signed on to star and direct, and Lady Gaga joined the cast in August 2016. Principal photography began at the Coachella music festival in April 2017.
A Star Is Born premiered at the 75th Venice International Film Festival on August 31, 2018, and is scheduled to be released in the United States on October 5, 2018, by Warner Bros. The film received critical acclaim, with praise for Cooper and Gaga's performances, Cooper's direction, the cinematography, and the music.

I carried Ally and Jack home with me from the theater and they are still with me.
Me too. I was on another planet and still am. My soulmate was an addict and passed away and this film touched me so deeply. I cried all the way home
This might be the most beautiful review I've ever seen.
Absolutely. This is honestly amazing.
Matic Valentan how lovely of you x
@@sawalhaadderleys I didn't see the movie yet and have been watching various clips of scenes from A Star is Born, really becoming intrigued with this movie since the Oscars, based on the reviews, the hype, the actors and director, what movie-goers are saying, and watching interviews, reviews, premieres, background info of sound/editing, mixing of the music, all things A Star is Born....(they just re-released it here today in the U.S. for 1 week with 12 add'l minutes of footage)….But anyway, your review came up after watching other videos, in the "up next" in the list of videos on the right of the screen and I thought, eh, I don't know if I'll watch this one, but decided to sit back and just watch, and I am SO GLAD I DID....the way the both of you reviewed it, the experiences that you both had in your own lives as well as what you took away from it at the cinemas, and just the fact that you probably review countless other films, and THIS ONE was just an exceptional one for you both, I just really took away a lot from listening to this and so glad that I did...it touched me, brought me to tears and I didn't really think about it, that it could move people like it did the two of you...wow...it is true about mental health, suicide, alcoholism, drugs, and just dealing with death, have to affect every person in some way watching it....I am tearing up and crying at what you both went through as I write this....I like and want to know what people think of the movie that saw it, and almost everyone who saw it, seems to at least like it if not love it, but your reviews really got to me (liked how you have the split screen for each of your takes on the film).... the way you described the scenes and the way Brad shot them and these little nuances that you picked up on and why and how it moved you and the fact that you say that no other movie like this can even compare (because there are NONE like this one)…. you sealed it for me, I know I HAVE to see it now and should do so while it is on the big screen, not wait for the DVD or pay-per-view at home as I wouldn't be able to get even near the same experience ... So glad again that I watched it...your kind of raw, real, honest, detailed, touching and emotionally tugging at the heartstrings personal experiences, left me feeling that this video/review was reason ALONE to go see the movie..... (Brad Cooper should have had everyone who was thinking about maybe seeing this movie, to have had them all watch your reviews and every single one of them would have said, "I've got to see this now." He would've made an even much bigger profit and if you would have gotten a cut on that, you would both be wealthy now! ha)….. Again, on behalf of everyone who watched your video, thank you both for your so very personal and truthful and insightful reviews of A Star is Born... ;) ;)
“Sort your shit out, mate, marry Lady Gaga, for God’s sake” This may be the best quote I will ever hear in my life! 👍🏻😂
@workoutmwf i agree it was about Jackson Maine. I think the star born was the legend born of Jackson Maine's death much like Cobain/Winehouse/Presley's legends were born out of their deaths.
I don’t normally comment on videos, but you both made me bawl my eyes out. I appreciate you sharing your backstory so openly. Nadia, I have seen you vulnerable on Loose Women from time to time, but you have truly touched me deeply with your sincerity and raw emotion in this video. Mark, your strength and honesty is inspiring and I am so glad that you are in such a good place now. I have so much respect for you both, as individuals, as husband and wife, the relationship you have with your parents, and as parents to your beautiful children. Thank you.
JosefVlogable your lovely words have just makes me well up again . Thank you xx
Yea, I agree completely with Jose. I've been watching reaction videos to this movie or the songs and you guys really got it. For some reason, watching other people react the same way to the same things is comforting. I'm not sure why but I guess it makes everyone feel less alone when you see other people react to any of the life events that happen in this movie because it reminds us of our own lives. I appreciate you guys putting yourselves out there so people like myself can feel like we're not alone as much. Thanks for that.
A very great review! Saw this twice tonight. Absolutely phenomenal film.
I saw it twice over the weekend and would go again in a heartbeat. I don’t think I can wait for the DVD release to see it again. LOLOLOL
Rude, I saw it 3 times. The ending song gets me every time. Knowing Lady Gaga just lost her best friend from cancer an hour before she sang makes it sadder.
A day later i still feel the way she feels. I can't believe a movie could make me feel so raw and broken
By the way thank you for being so open about your own struggles. And stemming from what you said if you're an addict you'll see it a certain way in my case i haven't been exposed to any of those factors but it still touched me in a different way because of the incredible way this was directed and acted. This movie is just incredible.
Yes, a day later and I am still feeling it too. I love when movies can do this.
Thankyou. I walked out of the theater feeling detached from my body. I was expecting to walk out of the theater humming the songs but as I walked to the subway I saw two addicts passed out in the street and I just lost it. I haven’t felt this way in a long time and your words help me to process my emotions as a former addict myself. I think I need a nap❤️
abbajim god bless you .. it’s such a tough beautiful watch isn’t it . One day at a time . Thank you for sharing xxxx
Honestly. I was never a fan of Bradley Cooper or Lady Gaga, But i will give it a shot!
Sean Stout go go !!
I saw a lot of reviews and i have to say this, your review of this film is the best review i've seen and i'm literally crying with your story and wao thank you so much for this guys, i love you and keep making reviews like this.
I am Michel thank you so much xxx
Fantastic. "Warner Brothers took a chill pill and sorted themselves out". So true
I sincerely and genuinely love you two. When Nadia kissed Mark and held his head my heart literally ached. Your love and relationship is very special and thank you for being you 💕
Clare Thomas ahh you’re very kind x
This is the most honest and raw review I've ever seen..
You perfectly described the feeling of leaving the cinema after seeing this film! I felt exactly the same. I saw it last night and I still feel the same now. Totally totally amazing performances by both Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper.
Oh I m so glad you had a cuddle at the end there. You both really needed it! 💔💔❤️❤️
I love this film. So raw, honest and genuine. Can't wait for the soundtrack to come out either. I was holding back the sobs in the cinema.
This was one of my favorite movies of all time. I loved the 76 version. This was a beautiful rendition of it. I absolutely love lady gaga and bradley cooper.the music is just phenomenal!! I still listen to it all the time. Loved loved loved this movie!!
I watched the film last night and it was hard to watch but perfect at the same time. I cried last night and again just now with the hug and words you have just given Mark. You two are so special and perfect together. Always be strong for each other. xxx
Sarah Nyree Ashby ❤️❤️
I’m seeing this at weekend !! I’ve always been a fan of Lady Gaga she is so talented and fascinating, I saw her live a few years ago and her voice is sensational !! You should watch her documentary on Netflix so so good !!
Thank you so much for such a wonderful and emotional review 💛 ! I could see how much this film meant to both of you .. I think I may bring my tissues with me to the cinema ! Sending you both a big hug 😘 xx
zoë agnew thank you my darling! I am certainly fascinated by her now! Enjoy x
That Netflix documentary is fucking HEARTBREAKING. the pain that woman deals with is... something else, she’s so vulnerable in that doc
Riordan Pett it’s incredible isn’t it ! She’s such a strong woman I love her xx
Fantastic review guys
Love you Lee Dawson so happy you saw this video ! I loved this review too and always come back to it cause it’s so beautiful ❤️
Mark, make damn sure you give that wonderful lady of yours a hug and a kiss every day and tell her you love her. As for the film, I'll be very disappointed if it doesn't pull in multiple Oscars.
Jeff 725 Yes Mark !!! X
I saw it on Wednesday, you guys took me right back to those powerful moments in the film. I just knew it would be a good film from the teaser trailer. But maybe not this good.
Lady Gaga was the biggest pop star from 2008 to 2014, she was huge and won alot grammys and awards, incredible music videos, and the most extraordinary voice ever. She has a powerful voice and is one the greatest pop icons in the world. Now she is emmy winner and golden globe winner and has been in American horror story, believe it or not she started off as a actress, she is a trained actress and studied drama in high school and college and wanted to be a actress but she also had the God given pipes and can sing and love to perform and make music and she chose music. And It wasn't a publicity stunt the way she used to dress, she likes to dress outragous and she liked the art of it, and she thinks out of the box, very eccentric. She wanted to be different, she never cared about getting publicity when she had real legitimate talent...she can actually sing, act and dance...better then Madonna one trick pony talent. Unlike Madonna, Lady Gaga can actually sing amazing and has a 5 octave range and can dance and act. A huge LGBTQ icon, her early music was for the LGBTQ community. She is a Gay rights activist. She is the God Mother of Elton John child. She had a few albums she did with the legendary swooner Tony Bennet, she has 3 hits with him and a Grammy. She can do everything, she multi-talented and a triple threat. She also made her acting debut on American Horror story Hotel season on FX network here in America, she was magnificent in her first role as the scary Countess she took home a emmy and golden Globe for that role.
June giovani wow thank you !! Am a fan for life now !!
That is exactly what I believe. She is my idol.💕
@@sawalhaadderleys ❤️❤️
Let’s not forget how every music legend, be it: Tony Bennett, Elton John, Stevie Nicks, Michael Jackson, or Metallica or Sting. How every music legend praises this woman, and ben collaborate with her. You don’t see Taylor Swift or any other popstar collaborating with legends of such sheer status in the music industry. They respect Gaga because of her talents. She’ll go down in the history books, even despite similarities with Madonna. Those similarities exist only because Gaga is the new Madonna-level performer. She can go from singing impeccable jazz to singing heavy metal with Metallica live. The most versatile pop star of our time.
@@RiordanLadyGaga - Madonna is no where near Gaga's level in regards to actual musical talent. Madge was a genius at marketing herself, but at the core of it she was little more than a pitchy stripper.
Actually Lady Gaga is renouned for Not being a diva she's really down to earth hence the born this way foundation and how much time and love she gives to her fans. The clothes/fashion was never a publicity stunt Gaga wore out there outfits because she was pushing back against the industry. The music industry wanted her to be sexy and she didn't it was her way of being herself and not being forced into a box like most female artists are unfortunately. Please check out the documentary Gaga 5ft 2 before saying such judenmental things about someone you know nothing about.
Jen Jen I’m probably the biggest Gaga Stan, but these two aren’t exactly her demographic. But watching the Documentary and listening to Joanne is probably the best one can do to get into Gaga at this point If you‘ve never really looked into her
@@Paddrique - I'd suggest just searching "Lady Gaga Acoustic" on RUclips and just go from there. Also, her Jazz work with Tony Bennett was stunning and won her a Grammy
gaffawebber sure but since they liked her work on this Soundtrack so much and Joanne is her only comparable work in my eyes. Sure there’s album cuts like Speechless, Brown Eyes or You And I and a number of amazing acoustic or stripped down performances but I think Joanne as a body of work will open some eyes for people that don’t like electronic pop music.
@@Paddrique - that's why the acoustic versions of her pop hits are so powerful. To me, Gaga has always been at her best when it's just her and a piano. I mean, Edge of Glory will RIP your heart out.
gaffawebber oh absolutely that and Gypsy and Hair are stunning on the Piano
Fun fact: the dog in the movie is actually Bradley Cooper’s dog, Charlie, named after his father who passed in 2011.
The most beautiful dog in a film ive ever see !!
Can't wait to watch this movie. I wish in the credits it said Stefani Germanotta or Stefani Germanotta / Lady Gaga.
You really touch me Nadia 😘, brilliant review, love you guys xxx
I just wanted to wrap Ally and Jack in the softest of velvets and protect them from this shallow world.💔
I have something to say me too edpecially at the end i wanted to grab jack and tell him what fo you think your doing just go to ally
Buy the soundtrack its out on iTunes! It is her best work ever
I agree, it may be her best work to date. I literally listened to it all day today
the soundtrack is amazing. It has a nice blend of country, pop, r&b
It is beautiful
I saw it on Friday night and cried my eyes out. Then woke up Saturday morning and continued crying. Beautiful movie. I can’t wait to see it again and again. I do agree it might be hard for Bradley to top this but I wish him the best. So many Oscar nods in this movie. Bradley should keep the hair and beard ❤️❤️❤️
I watched it last night...and the last thing I did last night was downloading and listening to the soundtract of the movie... love love love the movie and the music!!!
After I watched it, I restarted it and watched it again....
The end of this movie really brought an emotional issue for me. I was crying the entire next day and was torn. You said it right for anyone who has suicide that runs in the family etc... then it really touches a person the wrong way.. I loved the movie but my point of view is since lady gaga is a founder of born this way foundation and understands addiction then I'm wondering if when making this movie if any one thought about if this would bring this out in a person again.. tough call...good movie but it depressed me...and I walked out sad and broken
what's up and for me .. very tough .. ending love .. Nadia xx
@xoxogossipgirl09 just LISTENING to the sound track makes me cry....
i just saw the movie earlier and it was so beautiful. so many beautiful moments. in the beginning we were just witnessing him falling in love with her, and kinda contemplating her beauty (her face, her strength, her passion), and what i found really amazing is that he was believable because we were kinda falling in love with her at the same time. What he was seeing and loving, we were too. with her strength in the bathromm scene in the beginning, her beauty and passion when she hit the first note of the edith piaf's song in the bar. That note gave me goosebump.
And i thought she was so gorgeous. particularely in the beginning. Which is a testimony really of the acting because without the make up and the glamour she managed to make me see the beauty
of the character so clearly. She got me see what he was seeing. And i was as annoyed as him when she was all glamed up because i almost felt like her beauty was kinda spoiled. i think here about a particular scene before she reveived a grammy, both on a balcony staring at a picture of her on a billboard.
Not to be creapy, but this aspect of their relationship make me think of you guys i have to say, or something Nadia said about the fact that Mark don't really enjoy the Nadia on TV, because she has makeup, she puts on this " tv uniform" that makes her look like somebody else. very sweet.
the acting was great, i was not surprised by her acting. she got a goldenglobe already for a marvellous performance on american horror story.
Another aspect i adored was the singing. just marvelous..... great movie
landry fogaing thank you so much for this ! You are so right when you say whilst we were watching him fall in love with her we were too .
Fabulous review ! Thank you for the food for thought ! Xx
Loved this review but there is nothing wrong with her stage name. If Ziggy Stardust was acceptable, so is Lady Gaga.
To be honest, when I saw this review was 17 1/2 min. long, I thought I would never watch the whole thing, but I was so intrigued by your experience I had to watch. You two are beautiful people.
I cannot say enough how much this review meant to me. I'm an addict. I've ruined my family once but have been gaining it all back slowly over there past 6 years. This movie hit me so hard.
You both being so transparent in this review is incredibly brave and brilliant. I don't know you but I love you for this. Thank you.
You guys made me cry I loved when Nadia said thank you to mark .. going to watch this film for sure but I have depression so did my son he went missing and was going to take his life .. also Lady Gaga .. has fibromyalgia which is what I have so she must of been in so much pain doing this film as the pain puts me in bed for days .. thank for a honest review 😊 take care of each other mark you come such a long way be proud of yourself
Caron Bradford and you take care too . I’m sorry you are having to endure so much x
My father is an alcoholic and this movie absolutely haunted and touched me so deeply at the very same time. I saw it a week ago and it will not leave me.
I had pretty much given up on cinema until I watched this the other week. I haven't been this moved since I saw Rocky as a kid. It absolutely blew me away. I only watched it because there was nothing else going on Netflix.
Maybe facing demons is good...i'd have to make sure i could go home to a darkened room to recover after!!
You said there will never be another film like this. I’d say there will never be another film review like this one. I’ve rewatched this review multiple times and it’s still as every bit beautiful and sweet. Love you guys. :)
Guys 1st than all congratulations in your recovery Mark and specially for staying sober. You guys just make me cry with this review. What an amazing review!!! I think it's the most honest and heartfelt review about this movie. i try take my life in my early 20s and i understand everything in this movie. i just tweet your video in my twitter because everyone that is dealing with this disease should watch because you guys give to everyone hope. you just won a subscriber.
Thank you both for this emotional, open review ! I haven't seen the film yet but obviously have seen all the promos and lots of interviews and clips online. Got the album today and absolutely love it. I am, to be truthful, scared to watch it because I know I will be an emotional wreck and there won't be enough tissues, however many I bring with me. I agree with Nadia's comment about suicide. My mum killed herself after years of battling depression in the most drastic way and I still see myself from above, cleaning up the leftovers. And after so many years, I still can't reach myself in that particular moment in time. It's still unreal to me. In her letter to me she just wrote one sentence. "My victory is my defeat". And that really says it all. She didn't want to die. She just couldn't live anymore. As hard that is for the ones left behind to comprehend, that is the "simple" truth. Suicide is never easy, hardly ever selfish, never a coward's way out. It's capitulation and acceptance of their truth. No matter how hard you fight to live, how much you love, how much you want to be happy, there can come a point where you do not want to battle anymore every minute of the day, where you do not want to feel others tiptoeing around you, feeling awkward and insecure and thus making you yourself feeling exactly that. Awkward and not "belonging" anymore. To anyone. Suicide in my experience is the result of felling utterly disconnected to everything and especially to the people you love the most and the full awareness that there is no LOGIC behind this emptiness. You watch yourself in your life from above, alienated from the person you see there and can't pin down. It's like trying to catch smoke with you bare hands You just want to stop drifting. Like a balloon, pricked by a needle. No more floating, no more thinking, no more feeling, no more fighting. Just quiet. And peace.
Kerstin Vockert I’m so sorry this is so sad .. and yet beautifully articulated . I lost someone very close to me to suicide and my heart goes out to you . To lose your mother in this way is just beyond imaginable . Xxxx
@@sawalhaadderleys Thank you for your kindness🤗. I miss her terribly. But I grew up with her depression and despair. As a child you're so connected to your mum, my antennae were so fine tuned on her every mood that I would wake up knowing she would try something. And I could always prevent the worst. Until I couldn't. I always understood, though, why she did it. I saw and felt her struggles every day. For me, that was normal. That was my mother. And I loved her. She died young. Today you'd say she was bipolar. Then the doctor called it hysteria. She looked for help and there was none to be had. I always knew that this day would come. But her friends did not. She kept her mask on tight. They had no idea how hard she fought. And her death left them deeply disturbed and guilt ridden. They couldn't understand how they could have missed how troubled she was. And it broke some of them. So I am grateful and optimistic because today we can talk about mental health, addiction, suicide and slowly begin to open up to the truth that all of us, at one point or another, will come face to face with depression and/or addiction. And we can talk about it more openly and ask for help and support each other. If anything, I've learned the hard way that one can not make someone fight and live. They have to fight themselves. And that's the loneliest place to be. For them and for us. All we can do is love them and support them. The will to fight and live has to be theirs. And sadly sometimes loving them just isn't enough. And we have to accept and live with the painful truth that the people closest to us often are the people out of our reach. I was very moved by both of your openess and your devotion to each other. And it makes me happy to see that you're fighting - and succeeding. Keep the love, keep the faith. Nothing but the best to both of you. 🤗🙏❤
Very touching brave
review. Your devotion to each other is lovely to see
Let’s not forget that it was Clint Eastwood who directed Meryl Streep in Bridges of Madison County for which she was nominated for an Academy Award.
I’m obsessed with this film, have been watching all the trailers. Still haven’t seen it, but just KNOW it’s going to be amazing!! X
Watch all the interviews with them both on RUclips.
I HAVE to go and see this movie now, its sounds incredible.Thanks for the amazing review.I probably wouldn't of made the effort BUT I'm going to go on a date night with my husband and watch this.You two have had me in stitches laughing this morning on your other video and now in tears with this one.And its only 07.30 am!
Love you both, I cant wait for this weekends videos.Please keep them coming.Take care x
kerrie Hanley ahhhh this has made us very happy ! X
Saw the movie yesterday and I'm still reeling from the effects of it. Here I am on u tube the next day and I stumble on your review. It was absolutely beautiful and heartfelt. You both covered the main things in the movie so well and then to see you, Nadia, thank your sweet husband for being a recovered alcoholic. God bless you both. You made me cry again today. So much emotion felt from one simple movie. I don't think there will ever be another one this powerful again either. Thank you both, from the heart.
I dont know how I came across your page but I am glad I did. What a beautiful, honest and most relevant review. You two are amazing.
This review was amazing, it really got to me. The film was incredible, from the songs and the trailer I thought it would be a lovely romance, and I kept saying throughout the film “oh she’ll quit this commercial, mainstream life and go back to original, authentic material” but it never happened, the final scenes just sent me into a flood of tears, dealing with mental health myself and having close family members suffering with addiction and suicide. Really hits home. Sending you both love xox
It's interesting how most people assume she's a diva, when in real life she is really down to earth and humble
Wow what a raw real review! Great job guys and I'm glad you did make it out!
Love this review. Thank you guys for sharing your thoughts and emotions.
You guys are the reason they made this film. This is beautiful. This is healing. I love you
As an alcoholic this review is beautiful
I can honestly say that this is the most touching review I've ever seen. You gave me a perspective that I didn't even realize because you have lived through this in your own way. The emotion from you both is heartbreaking and your reaction is why we go to movies.
We want to be sucked in, fully engaged, and we want to be impacted by what we've seen and this film gave me this and so much more. It stayed with me for DAYS. I reflected in it for DAYS. How often does that happen? Very very rarely.
This is a Best Picture nominee in my opinion. If they swept every category I wouldn't be bothered one bit.
Beautiful movie and review. 😭
God... this is the kind of review i want to watch. Very raw, natural and just the connection between the two of u while discussing it is really good! You guys convinced me. You guys made me emotional
DaleyDale ahh thank you xxx
Thanks for a very honest and personal review. This film is phenomenal, it made me think of my father who is long dead, but was an alcoholic in denial. My childhood was destroyed by this disease and I still feel the shame of it today as so many embarrassing things occurred. This film will be healing to many people, I am so glad it was made so sensitively, it is very moving and emotional with excellent music and performances.
jacqueline cruickshank I’m so sorry you had so much to bear . Thank you for sharing back to us . Sending hugs Nadia and mark xxx
I am currently an alcoholic and this film made meball my eyes out. All the pain I've caused is all because I can't stop. I hope I get better. Great review
*How are you doing? We all struggle with something, wish you well!*
Now this is what i call a review. You have a new subscriber. I too have lived in the addiction household, and both of your comments were spot on. Thank you for sharing.
You know a movie is special when the reviews make you cry.
Just booked to see it with my sister after seeing this review - very much looking forward to it now! Tearing up at your review I’m gunna be a bloody mess! Xx
staycxx044 let the s know what you think x
Wow, the two of you are an inspiration, and I am so genuinely greatful for this intimate conversation that you've shared here.
This movie hit me so hard; I swear to god at certain moments I couldn't even breath. I have almost killed myself multiple times while under the influence of substances, and driven ppl that matter most to me far away, but thankfully through the help of my family's unconditional love, I have been sober for about 3 years now.
The word I feel that best describes the experience I had watching this stunning film would be visceral... this cut me to the quick.
I am liking and subscribing immediately; I find you both to be so beautiful thankyou again for sharing your story it's given me a lot of hope.
Randall Emerson Appleby oh my goodness Randall . Thank you for sharing back in this way . You are incredible to have stayed sober and ALIVE !!! One day at a time for the rest of your life stay sober and well . Miracles occur in sobriety xxx🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈
We saw the Dolby Atoms version the audio was amazeballs! The movie didn't disappoint either. Tried to hold back the tears, but that last Gaga song... 'I'll never love again' killed me, tears came down as lights went up. We watched your emotional, brave review on our return, hearts are with you guys ❤️
I saw the film two days ago and I’m going to see it again tomorrow but I’m so glad I watched this before I did because this gave me an even better understanding and appreciation for the story and performances in the film. what a powerful review. thank you for sharing your story and I wish you both the best
ares ahhh this made us smile x
I'm grateful to have watched your review. Thank you for your honesty and vulnerability in sharing such intimate parts of yourselves and your relationship in this video!
I've been a huge Gaga fan for years. I've been tracking every little thing she's done for the last 8 1/2 years like a hawk, so of course I had to go out and see ASIB this weekend.
It's interesting, I actually felt like I was able to come to a whole new level of appreciation for the film after watching your review. I too was in an abusive relationship with a drug addict / alcoholic in my early / mid 20s, and it was traumatizing. There were moments during the film where I was pissed with Ally (Gaga's character) for being so codependent and enabling Jack's behavior. I wanted her to stand up for herself and put up a boundary and demand more respect, and make him work on himself.
I'm grateful that this movie was viewed by people like yourselves, who have not been gigantic fans of Gaga's for years... I wanted to watch this film from those set of eyes and that perspective, because for myself as a Little Monster, I couldn't really separate Gaga from the character Ally. The line was so blurred that Ally felt like a Meta representation of Gaga, talking about herself and her life experience on the inside. Fascinating film.
The soundtrack is incredible... Thanks again for your work in creating this video. xox
This was very brave of you guys to put so much of yourselves out there for this review. And that hug at the end... The movie itself made me cry a couple hours ago, and this review made me cry again.
It was very brave of you and vulnerable to share your stories, I appreciate your point of view and sharing your experiences. I applaud your strength in your recovery and wish you all the best 💕
I can't wait to see this film and this is a great review. Can I just say how touched I was Nadia when you got up from your seat and went to Mark and thanked him for getting sober. I felt a little awkward in the sense that I felt I shouldn't be watching such a tender and personal moment. I love how real you both are and I am touched that you have been so open about yourselves in this review. Love to you both.
stevesgirl17 ohhhh I’m sorry if we left you feeling awkward . We did consider not putting that but in , but in the end it felt right x
@@sawalhaadderleys Oh no! Please don't aplogise...I consider it such a privilege to be allowed to witness such a wonderful display of tenderness. Thank you for keeping it real. I love you guys x
Thanks for the review. Appreciate you sharing your personal experience.
I loved this review. The best that I have seen. Bit scared to see it now though when you talk about the suicide and addiction aspect. My own family think suicide is selfish and I love your words Nadia that it's not. That means a lot and sometimes I wish people close to you would say that. Carry on please doing what you do on Loose Women, I think you and your family are fantastic.
This movie floored me, the end is something amazing but sad, I did look at the abyss quite a few times and it looked back at me, I got scared and never took the last step, but I understand him taking it and his reasons, it felt personal and true, I'll carry this movie with me for the rest of my life.
Wonderful review guys. I loved the movie so so so much and yes, it stays with you after, I haven’t stopped thinking about it, I’ve not had an addiction but like you said it can still touch you! Your review was amazing and emotional. Thanks guys xxx
It's such a touching review. Thank you for this 😁
This review made me cry as much as the movie! My brother suffered with substance abuse and I thought of him whole movie. Thank you for this review!
Hello Nadia’s and Mark, I started watching your podcasts after I saw your review on The Cry, a marvellous series, keep up the good work and I enjoy watching all the stuff you put onYou Tube. By the way I live in New Zealand. Thank you again. Beverley Price
I saved this video years ago and just happened upon it. I ended up watching again and it is just as moving as it was 3 years ago. I appreciate your honesty and candor. Best wishes.
Thank you for this truly raw and thoughtful review. I am so thankful that you are talking about depression and suicidal moments. It helps the tribe. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Omg! Even your review has give me goose bumps!! This was so open and honest I had tears in my eyes.... But I’m looking forward to going to see this with my daughter 💞
I was pregnant with an addict's baby when I saw this in the movies and even though we aren't together anymore, it felt like our love story. I eventually had enough but I'm still close to him. It was the most emotional and relatable thing I had ever seen. Even though he was an addict and I had to save and defend him over and over, he was kind throughout.
I just watched this today too.. And When i saw your review was nearly 18min. Long i knew you had connected with this film on a deep level. How can you not. Addiction turns beautiful people into beautiful disasters. But still beautiful none the less. Its real. They lay it all out there. And thats why it hits you right square in the heart. Thank u. Appreciate you!
Mr.Midnight I love what you’ve said here . Thank you xx
The contrast between this wonderful review and your trailer reaction is a vast as I've ever seen. Congratulations, one movie has saved your channel. I'm probably not the only one who loved that moment the two of you embrace. You're the happy ending Jack never had.
Me and my brother are recovering addicts and we went to see this with my mom and I know she struggled through a lot of the scenes because it reminded her of me and my brother. The feeling like you can't help, the embarrassment but never giving up. And for people who don't think addiction is a disease I was the same even though my father and his father were alcoholics. Then before I knew it I found myself and my brother in the same boat, but we are heroin addicts. This movie touched me on so many levels. One day at a time my friends. My favorite movie of 2018 and one of my favorites ever
Wow, thanks guys for such an amazing review. You know this film blew me away and touched me in so many ways, and equally your review did the same.
I watched it on my own and sobbed as I imagined how my own thoughts of sheer desperation and an inevitability that I will repeat the same mistakes could lead me the same places as Jack, would leave others heartbroken like Alli.
I have two children and they regularly say how much I mean to them, but like Jack I feel like a burden to them so often.
I’m falling, I feel that way and I want that void filling, it was like Ally was talking directly to me.
I’m probably what I’d say is a mildly functioning alcoholic, and drug addict. I’ve managed to kick the drugs but I keep returning to the drink.
I’m not drinking since watching the film I’m trying so hard not make my kids Allys and me a Jack.
You know I do nothing but listen to the soundtrack, and almost mourn Jack like I knew him or he was me.
I’ve always loved film but have never been touched like this by any film before.
I took my Mum and Daughter to see it and cried in their arms at the end.
We all watched your review too, and when you hug Mark at the end and thank him for getting sober That’s was as powerful as the film.
So thanks so so much. I love watching you two together xxxx

This review was amazing. I felt every minute of your enthusiasm and your pain regarding this movie masterpiece. I saw it a few days ago and I haven't really recovered, the ending in particular gut punched me leaving me breathless..you see I'm a suicide survivor my husband (a musician) battling depression took his life a few years ago.. this movie transported me right back. My conclusion... I haven't dealt with my grief and regret completely I see that now. This movie will stay with me a long long time I commend you guys for your honest and deeply real review. Stay strong.
I watched it today... this review sums it up perfectly. I can’t stop thinking about it, never has a film touched me like this before. It’s just such a heart breaking beautiful tragic story performed so wonderfully.
I've seen many reactions from this channel, and although I am not a fan of the over-the-top hystericism that they incorporate in their reactions; this felt more true than any review I have seen, ever. I like, not just when the review touches the core of lives, but when the reviewers give of themselves, to a review. Give honestly, and really speak from the depths of what touched them, even when it is not personal, as this, clearly was. This was beautiful.
Patrick Sheridan Thank you for your beautiful eloquence x
I watched this 5 days ago and am still triggered everytime I hear the music. I cried for days. It was painful but also very healing. You are spot on he was so sensitive with the story and gracious and generous with the actors. Loved this review!!
I haven't seen the movie yet. I knew this would be a very intimate and emotional film.
After your review, I now go into the film with very mixed feelings. I have experienced alcoholism and suicide very closely...
Your openness makes me speechless... Thank you so much for openly discussing these problems and drawing attention to them!
Don't stop! Stay woke ❤️ You both are wonderful ❤️ Best regards from Germany
Good job guys! Such an authentic film review. Bravo!
What a beautifully touching review. You two have such lovely souls; two good eggs. I'm off to see the movie tonight......taking tissues!
I absolutely loved this movie. Ive seen countless reviews on youtube and im so happy I came across your channel. Your review in itself had so much emotion i felt it coming off my screen. Thank you both for your honesty and bravery for sharing that. Wish the best for you both and your family.
such lovely words - thank you- maybe best to avoid our Mandy review !!! ha ha!!! ;-))
I cried 4 times during the movie and now one more watching this review. You are right, there wont be any movies like this in a while, it pulls every heartstring, it was beautiful
Carolina Mercado it’s sure does ! X
Great review. This movie broke my heart and I'm still constantly thinking about it.

This review made new look at this film in a different light, even made ne reexamine some things I've experienced as well. I also think it's interesting how much both characters are two sides of the same coin: both grew up with alcoholic single dads, both have abandoned issues, etc.. The fact that Vive En Rose brought them together says so much
This review is so touching. I'm watching it tomorrow and seeing how it has affected you has gotten me excited. ❤ you guys are so incredible. ❤
Such a lovely review by you two and a beautiful film that still touches me 2 years on💖🇬🇧
Hi Nadia and Mark. Well done for your honesty in relation to the film. Aswell as it being enjoyable for lots of other reasons, I can appreciate that it can't have been an easy watch either for you. Thank you for your broad review. Lots of love xxx
THEREZA HALL you’re right .. it wasn’t easy xx
Why am I spoiling myself HAHA. I'm not a fan of Lady GaGa either but she may surprise me in this movie. Bradley Cooper I always liked him since The Wedding Crashers,The Hangover and Yes Man(he played Jim Carrey's best friend in that film) along with Failure to Launch with Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew McConnaghey.
This review had me in tears. I have to go and watch this now. Thank you Nadia & Mark x
Fantastic review. I watched this film on Tuesday night, I sobbed my little heart out, in the cinema, I then went to the bathroom afterwards and could just hear people sobbing. I got home and I sobbed. This film really hit me, an incredibly hard watch but brilliantly done.
I feel the same way she does. I was finally over it after a week. Then this weekend my bro wanted to watch it. And the cycle restarts. Such an impactful movie.
This film made me a Lady Gaga fan. Now, I'm a little monster. And I ship them too hard. 🔥🔥🔥
