A young couple moves into a house with many secrets and a room that… grants wishes.
I’ve been told that in Los Angeles, everyone has an idea about a great film. Do you know why almost no one makes it? Because no Industry Professional cares about any idea. The Room is based on a brilliant idea: What would you do if all your wishes could come true… inside your house! Very thrilling idea. Especially if you ask for a kid.
Its development, though, irreparably ruins it. Noël Carroll, in “Toward a Theory of Film Suspense,” analyses suspense, its development, and its potential outcomes. This is a highly recommended read. Here, Matt is looking for the room’s key; he finds it. He wants to find that man; he finds him. The man calls the house, and the kid picks up the phone. He knows exactly what has happened and explains everything.
I don’t want to be more negative about this one. Feel free to watch it and make up your mind. The film’s intentions are noble, it just lacks of… almost everything! Very unfortunate.
