The Disaster Artist

Over the years, you get to watch some really bad films. Luckily, there are a lot of quality films to see, so you can skip the bad ones you hear about. However, sometimes there are movies that are so bad, that people actually say you have to see them, just to experience how bad they are. One of those films that i will never forget, is the Kirk Cameron film Saving Christmas. This is most likely the worst movie ever made, forever and ever. How bad is it ? Well, it is so bad that i can´t describe the film. A Christmas movie that tries to be funny, serious, with some of the worst dialogue ever written ? Wow, sounds like a champion right ? Saving Christmas should be experienced, if you ever wanted to see what the worst movie of all time looks like. But i know that some people might not agree on this. There are plenty of people who will say that the 2003 film The Room is the worst movie of all time. Never heard of this film ? Well, i can understand why. The film have however become a cult hit, and is still today played in cinemas, for being one of the worst movies ever made. The Room was directed by Tommy Wiseau and written by Tommy Wiseau. A very odd personality, who had so much passion for this film, that he wanted to make his own masterpiece. For us who have experienced the film, i can tell you this. This is one of those films you won´t forget, because it is so bad that is becomes fantastic ( in some odd way ). You simply have to see it yourself to understand what this film is. The amazing thing about The Room, is that the film is still in cinemas every year, especially on special screenings. I think it would be fair to say that director Tommy Wiseau is a legend for his cult film, because you can´t find many films that are like The Room. Ever since this film came out, and have made a big impact worldwide, actor James Franco decided it was time to tell the story about Tommy Wiseau and how The Room was made. So he both directed the new film The Disaster Story, and stars in the lead role as Tommy Wiseau. Since i heard about this film, i just had to see it to learn more about the making of The Room. Is this film based on a true story, one of the highlights in many years, or is this a disaster just like The Room ?

Greg Sestero ( Dave Franco ) is a young man, dreaming to become a big actor in Hollywood. He meet Tommy Wiseau ( James Franco ) in acting class, a very mysterious man with very strange acting technique. They begin to spend time together, and work on making their way inside Hollywood. They finally get a chance to make a film, that Tommy have written a script for called The Room. Tommy believe this is the greatest film ever made. Greg is about to experience, what it really is like to be in the world of Tommy Wiseau. This is a film set that will change movie history forever, and change the lives for both Greg and Tommy.

It is not very often you come across a film that is so funny as The Disaster Artist really is. Just the idea of how the film The Room was made, looks like a big mess in this film. I love to see how Tommy Wiseau used all his ideas, and what made him want to make The Room. Lead actor James Franco does an excellent performance as the odd director / actor Tommy Wiseau. He capture his body language, his dialect, his style, that it feels like you are watching Tommy Wiseau on screen. I can understand why James Franco really wanted to tell the story behind The Room. You don´t see many films out there, that feels very different, and unpredictable like The Room really is. And you do get to understand on a much larger scale what Tommy Wiseau´s vision was with his project, through The Disaster Artist. The film making of The Room clearly had some very odd situations, like the toilet demand from Tommy Wiseau. No one can use that specific toilet with no doors, only Tommy Wiseau, because he is the director, and that is the director´s personal toilet. The dialogue scenes with Tommy Wiseau are so funny, i guarantee you will laugh a lot. He have such a odd style of delivering lines, that you have never seen anything like it before. The rest of the cast also does a great job. Actor Seth Rogen is great as always, here as the character Sandy. Dave Franco ( little brother of James Franco ) also does a really good performance as Greg, who is Mark in the film The Room. I also enjoy the performance of actor Ari Graynor who is chosen to play Lisa in The Room. The Disaster Artist is a very interesting and entertaining story of Tommy Wiseau and his film The Room. You don´t get to see stories made like this in Hollywood, and that makes this film unique. And for that reason, i feel that this is a film that needs to be seen by a larger audience. You should see The Room first, to understand the background of this cult film. Then you might understand The Disaster Room even more, and why director James Franco wanted to tell this story. A really funny, odd journey inside the mind of director / actor Tommy Wiseau. Director James Franco have done a really good job with this film, and deserves respect for taking a big chance with this film. The Disaster Artist is a winner, in many ways, and the funniest film in a very long time.
