The phrase is a noun. The "bar mitzvah" is the person ... the male Jew who turns 13 years old. At that age, the responsibility for his religious observance, and his moral, ethical, and social conduct, become his, and are no longer the responsibility of his parents. This is the situation of that person when he turns 13, whether or not the occasion is celebrated or acknowledged in any way, and whether or not anybody is even aware of it. The person has become a bar mitzvah. An adult convert to Judaism is a bar mitzvah immediately. There is no ceremony that creates this status, just the fact the man is over the age of 13.

So much for the literal. Culturally, the term is used to identify the point in the life of a son when that son takes on adult responsibility for his own actions. (The corresponding term for a girl is a bat mitzvah). This is considered a big thing. Pre bar mitzvah, the parents are responsible. Post bar mitzvah, the son is responsible. With responsibility comes the ability to lead communal prayers and be counted toward the quorum of 10 required to hold a communal worship service, so it's traditional to celebrate.
