A Disappointing Continuation
Brenda
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

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

This film has only a fraction of the charm of Tim Burton's endearing testimonial to Ed Wood and epitaph to Bela Lugosi. Instead we get mainly plain weird. There were funny moments, but not the sort of rolling in the aisle funny.
This is certainly a rare case of 'it would be helpful to read a review beforehand' so that you realise it's actually a film about the making of a weird film (that has somehow become a cult work), plus a bit of backstory, and don't take it entirely at face value (which I did for most of the film and would've rated it lower in consequence). So it's worth a watch but is unlikely to be remembered, except perhaps in a bad joke sort of way.i think the essential difference between this and Ed Wood - and it makes all the difference imho - is that the latter was always working against adversity and lack of funding, which actually inspired a lot of innovation (even if much of it came across as tacky and amateurish). In contast, Wiseau has a secret bottomless fund that means he can bankroll his own film and keep changing personnel on a whim. The only suspense if whether everybody else will be able to put up with him long enough to get the film finished, and I dare say the regular cheques helped a lot in that process.

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

Having watched and enjoyed the room for all its cringey glory, I was curious to see what the disaster artist had to offer. It seems that's James franco performances are normally hit or miss and this is definitely a hit. He truly carries the film along side his brother with James immersing himself in the character of Wiseau. I like how the movie focused on developing him as a character rather than just a caricature of himself. Admittedly, I doubt know much of the character that David Franco played, but his character seemed very flat and simply a spectator in the story. The only major gripe I had about the movie was that the ending was very corny and out of place. Knowing that the initial reaction to a film of this quality would be confusion and disappointment, it seemed out of place for all the audience to start laughing. It seemed like a very rushed and sudden ending that may be a sign of an inexperienced Franco directing.

The Disaster Artist has been quite hyped up and praised among critics during its released, During these type of films, the art of these films is how continued and consistent they are into true based story. Having low expectations and seeing the Room for the first time a few years back, memory of the film wasn't too vapid.The Disaster Artist truly does live up to the hype as a film which is generally funny throughout and inspires a true developing message. The high praise for James Franco is worthy as he steals his scenes as he delivers one ofhis better performances acting comparible to Tommy Wiseau in the film.Many scenes in the film are funny in an unintentional way due to the delivery of Franco, as well as the chemistry between him and broth Dave Franco. It's quite a shame this film did not receive as much Oscar awards as well as money at the box office office. Though with a small budget of $10, the Disaster Artist went on to make slightly under $30 million worldwide. Overall, the Disaster Artist lives up to the hype and is a generational film. Well done to the entire cast.
