The trouble with rock 'n' roll in A Star Is Born is that there isn't any. The soundtrack is filled with homogenized harmonics passing for rock, but not a single song is good enough even to be counterfeit.

TIME Magazine
A Star Is Born presents Streisand in an appealing and sympathetic role, and Kristofferson provides the perfect balance. In his toughest dramatic assignment to date, he is exceptionally good.

United Press International
This version vaunts its modernity by vulgarising everything in sight.

Time Out
Having seen both Janet Gaynor and Judy Garland (several times) one can only say that this picture as a re-re-make, suffers by comparison and so does its star (not him, but her)... But, it is also a film with two stars who are well worth seeing.

Not even the musical numbers are safe from this general disaster. [Full Review in Spanish]

El Pais (Spain)
The new A Star Is Born has the rare distinction of being a superlative remake.

Variety
Barbra Streisand's fantastic singing voice shows to the best advantage her incredible talent. The movie falls short of greatness, but it compares more than favorably not only with the usual concert film but also with the current love stories on film.
