The Disaster Artist (2017)

just watch it!

Disturbing yet enthralling

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

This is a vey enjoyable, well made movie about unbelievably real events in the Hollywood movie industry. James Franco did an amazing job playing Tommy Wiseau, a guy I could hardly believe existed for real.The baggy, ill-fitting, clothes, the weird accent, the long, black hair are reproduced to perfection, as are some of the scenes from the infamous "The Room" that roll with the end credits.Even if I don't live in the USA and the "The Room" never reached European screens, I could see bits and pieces online and I found them hilarious. I was therefore intrigued by this biography. But even if you are not familiar with the source material, this movie is thoroughly enjoyable.

James Franco performed Tommy wiseau so good and directed the movie well too. Dave Franco was not bad and The movie's story is so funny however not much comedy came out of it. Also the lack of the effect of the music of the movie could have made the scenes a lot more better and give them another whole better look. The movie's rhythm was boring a little bit too. The scenario was too fit for the characters. Only watch it to see James as Tommy. 6.5/10

If you haven't watch The Room, then don't watch The Disaster Artist. It is a prerequisite and will help you understand the masterpiece of James Franco's mind. It might also help you understand Tommy Wiseau (the creator of The Room).There isn't much to say and The Disaster Artist. They nailed it.

A story that had to be told. I applaud Franco for doing this. He was ok in this role and I think he really adored playing this character but it was tough to play it and while he obviously has the skill and won for his portrayal I would have loved to see the actual character play himself. Some of the accent was off and seemed amateur at times. The make up was great but Franco didn't come off as believable all the time. But this movie was really well done on so many levels. These so called weirdos who show up in Hollywood inadvertently serve a purpose not for everyone but there are people who get this unrequited dream and the necessity to live it in denial as an equal alternative to accepting you don't or shouldn't be wasting your time. He certainly wasted a lot of money.
