Entertainment Reviews:
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.

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

New York Times
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
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.

Hollywood Reporter
This version vaunts its modernity by vulgarising everything in sight.

Time Out
Rating: 1/5 --
Too often director Frank Pierson appears to be allowing his players to act the scene as they think fit rather than under his guidance.

Sky Cinema
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.

Description by OLDIES.com:
In this third remake of the classic made originally in 1937, the story is updated for the 1970s and concerns a rock superstar and his downward spiral into booze and drugs.
