Review: 'The Disaster Artist'

Published: Dec. 14, 2017, 6:16 a.m.

James and Dave Franco lead an all-star cast to tell the\xa0bizarre story of how 'The Room' -- a cult "disasterpiece" often hailed as "the best bad movie ever made" -- came to be. The movie is getting critical acclaim, but are we buying in?

Synopsis:\xa0

"With 'The Disaster Artist,' James Franco transforms the tragicomic true-story of aspiring filmmaker and infamous Hollywood outsider Tommy Wiseau\u2014an artist whose passion was as sincere as his methods were questionable\u2014into a celebration of friendship, artistic expression, and dreams pursued against insurmountable odds. Based on Greg Sestero best-selling tell-all about the making of Tommy's cult-classic disasterpiece 'The Room' (\u201cThe Greatest Bad Movie Ever Made\u201d), 'The Disaster Artist' is a hilarious and welcome reminder that there is more than one way to become a legend\u2014and no limit to what you can achieve when you have absolutely no idea what you're doing." \xa0 -- \xa0 Follow us on Twitter/Instagram: @ListenToBrunch Support the show on Patreon: www.patreon.com/listentobrunch
