Review: Woke Up Like This


Woke Up Like This

Director: Joel Ferrer

Starring: Lovi Poe and Vhong Navarro

Genre: Comedy, Fantasy

 

Woke Up Like This tackles the story of two different people from both world, they are Sabrina a top model who is quite mean to people who help her special her yaya, and Nando an aspiring basketball player who is very independent that he forgets to value the people around him.
Things will turn around after they met an old man that will teach them a lesson that eventually changed their lives.
 
Woke Up Like This uses a simple yet very effective comedy, I liked how the humor was delivered here and how it connected itself to the audiences. I also love how Regal Films is bringing back comedy movie that teaches us audiences’ lessons and values, these kind of comedy films are rare these days.

On the acting department, Lovi Poe was the bomb that surprised us, since this is her first full length comedy movie my expectations were really not that high, but she was able impress not only me but also other people who are watching inside the cinema. This is so far my favorite Lovi Poe movie, she went all out and no holds barred in this one.

Vhong Navarro delivered the goods as well, but I felt he wasn’t able to justify his portrayal of Sabrina’s character that sometimes I feel he was portraying a gay role already, anyway he still made me laugh with his antics and of course the humor is always there.

Another character that stood out for me is Bayani Agbayani, he brought genuine laughter in his scenes.

Over all Woke Up Like This is a good movie, the writers Jeps Gallon and Joma Labayen were able to incorporate their comic skills as they were able to make such a hilarious comedy movie, and also kudos to Direk Joel Ferrer as he was able to execute the movie well and he was able to show a different Lovi Poe.

Woke Up Like This is now showing in cinemas near you.
