Bart Got a Room: A Review

Having heard nothing about this movie and only recognizing William H. Macy from the cast list, I still found myself curious to watch "Bart Got a Room". I watched the trailer the one thing that drew me more to watch the movie was William H. Macy's awesome-awkward-mini-afro.

The movie follows Danny Stein as he prepares himself mentally for the senior year prom which takes place in a few weeks. The whole movie revolves around him trying to get a date to the prom. Literally, that is the whole premise of the movie. So it felt pretty lazy on the writer's side.

The dark comedy stems from how inappropriate Danny's dad (William H. Macy) is. Specially with the advice he passes on to his son in ways as awkward as his afro.

The movie is a not-so-bad Thursday morning movie. When you roll out of bed and barely brush your teeth and turn on the TV with a bowl of cereal the size of Egypt in your lap.

I give the movie 5.5/10 awesomes
