Oh, it sucked! It was a terrible movie about horrible people doing awful things to each other!
At the same time it was a breathtaking travelogue of San Francisco, so that was something. But otherwise, the movie had no redeeming qualities—but at least I fully expected that.
Put it in the "so bad it's good" category I'd probably see it again, if only for the camp value.

After hearing that this film was so popular that it has traditions when it comes to watching in theater, I definitely thought it would be a one of a kind film. To a certain extent it was, It has to be one of the only movies that is so bad in all aspects that people still find some way to enjoy it. In my case I don’t personally understand it. Maybe it’s one of those things you had to be there when it first came out to understand but i'm not sure. The script is bad, the acting is worse, the plot is all over the place and to top it all off, it’s terribly shot. I'm unsure what the wanted outcome was but it was a hard watch. I was so incredibly lost the entire time, when I started getting confused I gave the film the benefit of the doubt that some questions would be answered later. But I just kept having question after question and by the end I was confused and unsatisfied. The main actor, Tommy Wiseau, cannot act to save his life. Not even an amazing actor can save a train wreck of a script, but I'm convinced this guy couldn’t even do the bare minimum with the best script ever written. I am genuinely confused how this guy is a famous actor? Wouldn’t recommend it, I understand people view it as a “it’s so good it’s bad” kind of film but it’s somehow so bad I couldn’t even laugh at how bad it was and just wanted it to end. And for the love of god why are people throwing spoons at the screen?

Now I know I am not the only when saying this about the film, since this movie came out since 2003, but the movie was so bad, it was so good at the same time, since people just loved how awfully bad it was, that somehow it gained so much more attention and festivals to play it for fans of the movie to just do whatever during the showings of the room. The writer and director of the movie made by Tommy Wiseau himself, is quite the remarkable work of him at least trying and attempting something not everyone can do. In the state of the film not being successful itself, I feel like Tommy has in a way that shined more light on him, than anything that he has done at the time when that movie went out in theaters. Of course, everything from the writing that I felt like was all over the place, despite the actions of what the characters do on the levels that were understandable , but not as much as following the story so much. Either way, I also do understand why the film still gets the attention and love from so many people all over the world. As harsh as some critics are and reviews for this film, I’m glad I got to see it once in my life, because that’s how I feel for a lot of things that I view or watch. It’s one of those, “You have to watch it only once” movies at LEAST in your life, because it's always that one thing you hear about, but never really dig deep into since you either don’t care about it too much, or simply forgotten about it, either. In the end of it, despite the messy dialogue and the odd plot from the story, I’ve come to a conclusion on how bizarre and interesting to see a movie like this to be shown from hundreds, or even thousands of people that still watch this movie from festivals bringing it back in certain places to go and re watch the film again with a loved one or with friends even, that says a lot about how it really the room was apart of the cinema world , and the impact it’s made strangely at the same time.

Watching it is like stepping into a cinematic train wreck—you can’t look away, even though it’s a mess from start to finish.
One of the most confusing things about the film is its handling of time. The movie often shifts between day and night without any logical explanation, making it almost impossible to keep track of when things are supposed to be happening. One minute it’s bright and sunny, and the next, it’s dark as night, with no clear reason for these changes. It’s as if the film doesn’t bother with any consistency, which only adds to the overall feeling of chaos.Then there’s the acting. Tommy Wiseau. His line delivery is so awkward and out-of-touch that taking any of his scenes seriously is hard. The rest of the cast isn’t much better, delivering their lines in a stilted and unnatural way. It’s clear that the actors are struggling with the terrible dialogue and uneven script, which makes every scene cringe. I also don't understand whats up with all the sex scenes and why are they trying to make it romantic. I also don't know why the football tossing in almost ever guy hang out. This film is just so bad I dont understand how it can have fans who willingly pay to watch this film. I went to watch a live screening of the film and I dont understand why the fans kept throwing spoons at the screen, is this suppose to signify anything ? I was utterly lost to be quite honest and I was tempted many times to leave the theater that's how bad it was. I would have never watched this film unless my film class didn't make it part of the syllabus.
