Surprise Me!
What if pain was merely a set up for the ultimate surprise party? Genie Burns, owner of Surprise Enterprise, masterminds off the wall surprise parties in nobody would-suspect-it locations. Here she takes crazy risks but in her love life, she plays it safe. Her partner Steven, who hilariously calls her out on every issue she owns, is gay which makes him safe. Danny, her friend from college would be perfect for her but she keeps him in the friend zone. Along comes Jeff, everything she avoids, but his charm and depth draw her in. Is he the right one because he challenges her fears, or the wrong one because he implodes them?

Good watch, would watch again, and can recommend.
This is a good, if somewhat standard, "boy next door" trope mixed with a "control freak" and " eating disorder" cliches.
Fiona Gubelmann pretty much carries the movie, but she's good enough to watch it just for her. Sadly, I think this plays a factor as a lot of the movie is just her not accepting the availability of the guy she loves.
Sure, it's a chick flick, but the way the break down and dissect the scenarios through the scenes is pretty good.
It was an uplifting watch that I could really use at the time.
