The Disaster Artist Review (2017)

The Disaster Artist

  The disaster artist is a film about the making of a film. More specifically, the making of the cult classic, Citizen Cane of horrible movies. What movie am I speaking of? The Room.

   A film with a 6 million dollar budget that made less than 2,000 dollars at the box office. A film that's popularity is almost as mysterious as its director, Tommy Wiseau. A man who funded this film completely on his own with a bottomless pit of money with no known source. A man that speaks with an Eastern European accent, yet claims he's from New Orleans. A man that tells people that he's twenty, when in actuality he is probably more like forty. This is our main character, and BOY does James Franco kill it in this role!
  I absolutely loved every single second of this film. From start to finish, I had a big ol' smile on my face.
  Not only is James Franco's film one of the funniest of the year, but it's also surprisingly inspiring and genuine! He portrays Wiseau in a very human way, giving us the good and the bad, the sweet and the crazy, the humor with the sympathy. This is a story about dreamers. Perhaps some misguided dreamers, but dreamers non-the-less. It is a love letter to the creative process, even if the finished product doesn't get the response we were hoping for.
  If you haven't seen The Room, you will still enjoy this movie. If you have seen The Room, you will admire the tender care Franco has put into doing this right. Disaster Artist is one of the best films of the year! 10 out of 10 Stars! (A Must See!)
