This shows that love can conquer all and the scene when the mom realizes that in the grocery store is very powerful.

"She's not my roommate. We've been partners for 5 years now and we want to start a family." Jenny (Heigl) is finally ready to settle down and get married. She is happy with someone for the first time in her life, but when she tells her family things begin to fall apart. Her parents try to cover up her life and the small town they live in thinks this is the most scandalous event ever. Slowly Jenny's big reveal not only improves her life, but of those closest to her as well. This is a movie that is both infuriating and encouraging at the same time. Infuriating in the fact that, much like in real life, the worst sin someone can commit is to come out as being gay. Encouraging because it shows that love can conquer all and the scene when the mom realizes that in the grocery store is very powerful. This is not a typical Katherine Heigl rom-com, although it is still a little predictable. The acting is good in this but the message is the real reason to watch. Overall, a movie I liked more than I expected to, and I think it was because of the emotional aspect. I give this a B.
