Hello, Stranger: The Movie

Honestly, the story of the film was too common, A guy is hiding then B guy is ready to love, then A guy realizes that he has to do his real thing but was not able to do so due to what's right and wrong in the society, then they fall in love for real at the end.

For me, what made me give this movie ten stars is because, the realization of the film that life has always taught us what to do when we get so confused with our identity and how we want to live. There are tons of men and women hiding their true selves, why? Because their belief, traditions, customs and parents told them so that it's wrong. However the film strongly pounded that no matter what you are, where you're from and whatever the origin you came from, LOVE will always remain LOVE and no one can break that. We make our own destiny, we love who we want to love, because at the end of the day, our choice and decisions in life will always win.

This movie really stayed with me even after almost two months since its release. It made me want to experience how to fall in love. Hoping for season 2.

This RomCom film was absolutely great. It had the perfect formula balanced well with all the laughs, the pain, the love and of course, the kilig moments! Everyone can find something to relate to in this movie.

The sheer honesty displayed in this movie was really nice to witness. It's one thing to produce a BL production, but it's another to execute a genuine job well done. Black Sheep did just that and as well as JC Alcantara & Tony Labrusca with the rest of the cast. The chemistry they share together is outstanding, especially coming from the web series that was mostly filmed remotely online.

I'm so glad that the Philippines welcomed the BL genre with open arms; to even have ABS-CBN premiere a BL movie as their Valentine's Day special release, is just amazing to finally see in this day of age.

I cannot wait to see what more can come from this production. There's so much to explore and develop, so many characters and their relationships to delve into like KaiSeph & JunTal! Salamat again to Black Sheep and the Hello Stranger cast for giving us this movie during this time of the pandemic. You've all brought joy, laughter and tears in our households. Takits!

It's great movie! Everyone did amazing & Stunning work! I even felt the awkward, anger, love, and ugh everything! This movie did amazing job in portraying their feelings instead of exposing another yknow!

This movie is both a romantic comedy and coming-of-age film. Petersen Vargas and Dwein Baltazar team up to spark a rollercoaster of emotions. It picks up where the series left off, and the story unravels as the movie progresses.

If I'm being frank and nitpicky, the movie is not the most innovative in its plot, but it compensates in the way all the characters carry the storyline. There are lots of funny, lighthearted moments as well as scenes that will break your heart. Both Tony and JC convey love outside the heteronormative bubble with such reverence and authenticity (although I personally wish there was more fluff and less drama).

I highly recommend watching the series beforehand as it really helps establish the characters. Where it lacks in plot, it sure makes up in character development. Makakilig at magiiyak kayo for sure! Kaya panoorin niyo na!
