Bart got a room is a hilarious film about a boy looking for a prom date. William H. Macy is a riot as Danny Stein's father, Ernie, who also helps him in his quest. Cheryl Hines is absolutely sweet as Danny's mother, Beth. While Danny's parents are in the middle of a separation the senior prom is on the way. Danny and his friends, Abby and Craig, are on the hunt to help Danny find someone other than his friend Camille to take to the prom. When it seems as though all is lost for our young friend, he decides that maybe his family was right all along about going with someone he's been around the majority of his life. Between being bombarded by Camille at his dinner date and ending up late to meet with a very hot friend of a friend and his father finding a prostitute at the last minute, this film kept me laughing. Although we only catch a glimpse of the infamous Bart- the story is set around the idea that even the nerdiest guy in the senior class got a hotel room! Laughs and giggles all throughout this film as we see the the outrageous and at times pathetic attempts of Danny searching to check off the final item on his prom to do list - a date. William H. Macy had me in stitches! Jennifer Tilly was adorable as usual in her cameo! This film was very enjoyable and I can't wait to see more from writer/director Brian Hecker.
