Lady Gaga showed that glam is not what makes talent, beyond that this film was a complete bust. I would have rated it lower if it were not for her efforts.

The ending was calculable from the beginning, writing very corny, and the pace was slow, and uneventful. The dramatic parts were lacking sincerity, and the concert setups were lack luster. In all direction, and editing were almost non-existent things just jumped around from scene to scene with no continuity.

I had some trouble with the story line at first but if the writing, would have been better I think this could have been a very good film. If it get's any Academy nominations for any part of it would be out of hype.
