A transistorized remake, louder than ever, but very small in terms of its being about anything whatsoever.

New York Times
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
A Star is Born rarely stops seeming manufactured; it can't disguise its manipulations or the process of the storytelling. You see the tangled strings, not the puppets.

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

El Pais (Spain)
This new version follows the previous three in its broad outline, but there are differences. To make room for a number of songs, characterization has suffered.

Gannett News Service
The new A Star Is Born has the rare distinction of being a superlative remake.

Variety
This version vaunts its modernity by vulgarising everything in sight.
