I enjoyed it, but I can understand why some people wouldn't.
Nia Vardalos character gets a little annoying at times, the character she plays is extremely selfish (not much of a mother if you ask me) and pretty obnoxious.
She's basically a reversed homophobe... Like almost heterophobic, her desires to have a gay son can be compared with homophobic parents who tries to 'straighten out' their homosexual children.
All done in a very simplified light comedic way of course, but still a different and fairly interesting approach on the subject.
And luckily her son played by Jason Dolley is quite the opposite of her character and is likable as our main guy.
But the person who shines the most IMO is Mark Boone Jr who plays his ex-prisoner father who's just excellent.
So yeah nothing amazing, but more good than bad.
