Bart's Room

Bart Got A Room

I love coming of age movies because I hope to myself one day.  Srsly, COA films are usually a safe bet to entertain without any serious unpleasantness.  Bart Got A Room is really a very good movie for something I never heard of, but then I don't follow them.   William H. Macy is seldom (ever?)  in a bad movie, and he is definitely the star of this one.  He plays the divorced (from Cheryl Hines) father who wants to be his son's (Steve Kaplan) age, and treats him like a younger brother.  Bart refers to a friend of the son who is such a loser, that by telling his parents "Even Bart Has _____" gets mom and dad on his team.  What Bart got in this movie is a date to the prom, and a room in the hotel for afterwards.  Juice, you will like this. Oh, it's available on NetFlix instant.
