Diary of a Movie Lover

Directed, Produced and co-written by The Hangover's Bradley Cooper, A Star is Born is a tragic love story that follows the rise of the underdog and the crash of a rock star. I n the fourth take on thus tragic love story, Cooper plays seasoned musician Jackson Maine, who discovers and falls in love with struggling artist Ally (Lady Gaga). Ally gave up on her dream to make it big as a singer until she meets Jack and he coaxes her into the spotlight. Her career takes off and Jack's takes a nose dive. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't counting down to the premiere of A Star is Born starring Lady Gaga. I knew it was going to be a great film but I didn't expect it to be as magnificent as it was. Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper's chemistry was out of this world and their acting gave me serious goosebumps. Their acting was so good that I couldn't stop myself from getting emotional while watching some of the scenes. Cooper did an amazing job behind and in front of th...

Based on the 2017 novel of the same name and directed by Paul Feig (Bridesmaids, Spy), A Simple Favor centers around Stephanie (Anna Kendrick), a mommy vlogger who seeks to uncover the truth behind her mysterious & rich best friend Emily's (Blake Lively) sudden disappearance from their small town. Stephanie strikes a relationship with Emily’s grieving husband Sean (Henry Golding) and a lot of twisted secrets from Emily’s past bubbles to the surface leaving Stephanie to believe that her friend’s disappearance wasn’t by accident. I never really took A Simple Favor seriously even after seeing the trailer. I just expected it to be a regular film starring two actresses I loved but I was pleasantly surprised by how it turned out. I’ve always been a fan of Lively & Kendrick and I loved their chemistry together in this film. I loved how witty & twisted the story was and how they brought their characters to life. The story was predictable but not predictable in a way t...
