Camil runs the gamut of frenzied and despondent emotions, selling each moment or gag, no matter how crass, with all his charisma. It would be interesting to see that energy channeled into a script that's less painful to watch.

Las Pildoras De Mi Novio clearly wants to teach its audience that everyone deserves happiness, but it spends far too much time making fun of people with mental or physical differences for that message to stick.

The humor works best when it's about mixed signals and failed communications, but it's downright awkward and cringeworthy when it attempts to show the dangerous effects of a mentally ill person who goes off of medication for a few days.

I loved that its about all of the stigma and judgement bipolar people feel in life. There should be more movies about people that have mental illness, disabilities and such.
