Hello, Love, Again

Hello, Love, Again did justice to the first installment. It is not just a romantic movie-it's a heartfelt exploration of love, dreams, and the sacrifices we make to build a better future. Thr film paints a vivid portrait of the lives of overseas Filipino workers, with all their struggles, hopes, and triumphs that we in the Philippines didn't notice as we all view our OFWs "rich".

The movie's strength lies in its ability to balance romance with deeper themes of independence, self-worth, and the importance of pursuing one's dreams. It challenges the notion of love as the ultimate goal, instead presenting it as a part of the journey-a message that feels refreshingly mature and empowering.

With its compelling performances, emotionally resonant story, and a bittersweet ending that lingers in your heart, Hello, Love, Again is a film that celebrates the complexities of love and the resilience of the human spirit. It could be watched without seeing the first movie but we definitely recommend seeing it atleast once.

"Hello Love Again" is a sequel to "Hello Love Goodbye". This sequel is surprisingly good even though it falls to the Star Cinema formula, "Hello Love Again" is still an OFW movie like it's preficessor with a love story as a the background. I have nothing to complain about this movie as it has brilliant acting performance from the whole cast. Great direction and most of all the majestic cinemathograpy. It's nice to see they also tackle mental illness and COVID 19.

As an overall experience, "Hello Love Again"is the most satisfying sequel I've seen this year! This the perfect conclusion to the first movie. A must see!

A pure fan service hokum and sequel to the 2019 hit. The movie changed its setting from Hong Kong to Canada where Joy (Bernardo) and Ethan (Richards) cross paths after a painful break-up during the height of the global pandemic. Joy works as a caregiver and cleaner while still pursuing her lifelong dream of becoming a nurse. Ethan is trying his luck in Calgary after going bankrupt.

The movie spent much of its two-hour runtime posing the question if the former lovers will reunite or permanently go their separate ways with a script that had every trope possible for films like this. Many scenes were repetitive and overextended while there were subplots that were undernourished. Except for the two principal characters, most of the other roles were one-dimensional. Bernardo easily provided the movie's best performance while Richards was adequate but still relied on his dimpled and puppy-eye looks. Gamboa, as Ethan's bestfriend, acted as the movie's main clown and got the funniest lines that were dished out more than necessary. At least the film did not turn out to be part travelogue which usually occur in Filipino movies shot abroad.

The film could have handled the ending better with a more realistic conclusion that didn't belie Joy's character motivation. Instead, it opted for a pedestrian crowd-pleasing denouement that would explain why the film is now the Philippine movie industry's biggest moneymaker with over $22-million in ticket sales. Oh well.
