Regal Films’ latest family comedy for all ages, “Woke Up
Like This” starring Vhong Navarro and Lovi Poe, is guaranteed 100
percent non-stop entertainment. Those who have watched the premiere night of Joel Ferrer’s
movie agree “Woke Up Like This” is Vhong and Lovi’s funniest.
In addition, Regal adapts to the times as even the film’s
title, “Woke Up Like This,” was coined and made popular by the millennial
generation.
In the film, Vhong plays Lando, dubbed as the King of the
Basketball
Court. A hardcore cager, he is a dutiful son who takes on the role
of the head
of the family when his father (played by Joey Marquez) meets
an accident and injures himself on the hard court. Lando’s dream of being part of a prestigious basketball
league is sidelined when he wakes up one day in the body of a woman he
barely knows.
Lovi, meanwhile, is Sabrina. Tagged as the Ramp Queen, she
is beautiful, svelte and very competitive, too. Her fate as a sought-after model vying for the Supermodel of
the Whole Wide Philippines crown suffers a setback when she finds
herself trapped in a man’s body.
They mystery behind Lando and Sabrina’s switch is the
subject of “Woke Up Like This’” endless comic twists.
Lovi gets ample comic support from equally kikay co-stars
Cora Waddel, Yana Asistio and Dionne Monsanto.
Joey and Bayani, on the other hand, lend winning comic
timing in hilarious scenes like that of Vhong’s shower scene as
Sabrina.
“Woke Up Like This” may be Lovi’s first comedy movie but she managed to pass the test with a new monicker, “LPJ,” which
stands for “Lovi Poe Jr.”
The actress’ dad, the late Fernando Poe Jr., was himself a
natural comedian aside from being local filmdom’s action king.
As for Vhong, he has proven his knack for comedy once too
many but he offers fresh “hugots” and comic style that would endear
him even more to local audience.
The two lead actors’ performance in “Woke Up Like This” pays
off handsomely as the film’s trailer earn almost 10 million
views on social media. Even their mall shows are sell outs.
As bonus, Vhong’s fellow “It’s Showtime” hosts plus a
handful of basketball players have agreed to do cameos in “Woke Up Like
This,” which opens in cinemas nationwide on August 23.
The movie is but one of Regal’s 24 offerings lined up for
the year.
Currently in production are films like “Recipe for Love,”
starring Christian Bables and Cora Waddel, “This Time I’ll Be
Sweeter” with Barbie Forteza, Ken Chan and Thea Tolentino; “The
Debutantes,”
“Haunted Forest” and “My Fairy Tail Love Story,” topbilling
Janella Salvador and Elmo Magalona, among others.
