Jowable is the mirror of people desperately LOOKING for "love".
The script was a catch as it tells the truth - vulgar and irreverent yet meaningful - things I always look for a film as relatability makes it good.
And the way Elsa's character was written and portrayed by Kim Molina was satisfying. I saw a lot of people in her, including myself.
Being one of a kind is magical but knowing that others also feel the same way as you is powerful. While inside the cinema I really thought that Elsa and I was sharing the same tub of bitterness brought by love. Elsa, in the portrayal of Molina was indeed impressive. Her lines were my inappropriate gags, my irreverent jokes and my political incorrectness which, I admit, should not be practiced. But I just love how the film was able to speak up in behalf of me. I really love how bold it was, something that's not new about the Director himself.
Also, the film showcased a wide acting range in comedy and drama which are BOTH effective. The transition of the event was promising. From irreverence, it suddenly became grounded with values. The confession scene between Elsa and her mother (portrayed by Kakai Bautista) was well-directed and well-acted - truly, love often makes people blind to what really matters in life.
