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."
