Ms. Streisand has a great voice and a great stage presence, and she has made a number of good films in her career. For me, A Star Is Born is not one of them. Full Review |

Barbara Streisand. Is. A Star Is Born. And two-shots have never been so completely arbitrary. Full Review |

An ego project for Streisand and then companion Jon Peters, or a director (Frank Pearson), who can't handle his leading lady. Either way: This remake, marred by a fake, overly sentimental ending, is only worth seeing for Streisand's singing. Full Review |
