Required attribute isn't working on form inputs

Below is my snippet from following along. I'm running Angular 7 and viewing in Firefox 67.0.4 and when I click submit it doesn't show the in browser validation error. It will still add a blank comment.

<form (submit)="onSubmit()" #commentForm="ngForm">
    <div>
        <label for="name">Name</label>
        <input type="text" name="name" [(ngModel)]="name" required />
    </div>
    <div>
        <label for="comment">Comment</label>
        <textarea name="comment" [(ngModel)]="comment" required ></textarea>
    </div>
    <div>
        <button>Submit</button>
    </div>
</form>
