There are limits to how interesting so-bad-it’s-good really is. I am more afraid of so-good-it’s-bad: middlebrow ghastly good taste, period drama from the classiest of names, often garlanded with Oscars. In the end, The Disaster Artist teaches us a great truth.

Charming, sympathetic and very funny take on the making of cult monstrosity The Room.
Sincere and sporadically funny, The Disaster Artist is an endearing tribute to failing in Hollywood. Anyway, how is your sex life?
James Franco finally finds his place in Hollywood with The Disaster Artists.
