Often called "The Citizen Kane of bad movies". The story evolves around the apartment of Johnny and Lisa, their interaction with the continuous flow of friends and family visiting them, and a range of completely unrelated events and conversations. Events seem to change Johnny's life from being a very happy and seemingly successful banker into a steady flow of disappointment and victimhood.
The Room was originally meant to be a serious movie, with Tommy WIseau intending it to be impressive drama. His lack of understanding of how movies are (to be) made, and quite likely, his lack of basic understanding on many social interaction and human emotions.
As the book and film called "The Disaster Artist" describe in detail, the perspective on life of Tommy Wiseau has resulted in a hilariously but nonsensical script, weird dialogue that just doesn't seem to fit anywhere, very weird choices in all parts of directing and producing a film, and all this on a set that leaves a lot of room for questions :-)
The Room is hilariously bad, and if you're into bad movies, an experience that'll stay with you for a very long time.
May the spoon be with you!
