I like Dolly Parton music,
I liked Muriel's Wedding (Ugly Duckling story)
I liked Priscilla, Queen of the Desert (Drag Queen story)
I like Jennifer Aniston.
I don't like this film.
I don't think they made the main character likeable enough, her chubby friend Millicent was way more charismatic. It's one thing if you make the lead big, but then you need to write her in a more charming, sympathetic way if you have a young handsome guy throwing himself at her.
She was just boring and depressing, and it made little sense why Bo at the diner would go out of his way to pursue her.
Jennifer Aniston was more likeable and she was the villain.
The actors were fine, but the script just wasn't good enough.
It contained all of the above listed elements, but they weren't brought together in a believable, coherent manner.
