I guess this series is like The Godfather -- great original but the sequel is better. Really nice, funny movie. So cute the way she's trying to find him a husband. Appreciate the costuming and the one liners. Well done movie.

I thought the movie started off a little slow, but turns into a really good feel good movie. It's not laugh out loud hilarious, but it's definitely worth watching.

Funny, and genuinely relatable. I grew up in a conservative family and community. I can truly relate to the struggles of the son. I like the message of positivity and being sober, promoting safe space for gay teens, moving away from ugliness of being shallow in the gay community. The comedy is cheesy, corny at times, but I really enjoyed it. The true drama hits me and I'm hoping and wishing all the mothers, parents to truly accept and support their kids on what truly makes them happy. 💖
