Hello, Love, Goodbye (2019)

It can be hard to find Joy in an unfair world but Joy is indeed here...

This was... Surprisingly good, though it got off to a slow start once it got going it had a pretty good mix of playboy falls in love and life is not easy... giving us a window in to the daily lives of immigrants/ foreign workers... work permits can be tricky. though the movie has a whole lot of lovely cliches it feels a bit refreshing to have two poor leads instead of the usual rich/poor I also adore. Bundled together with some more issues here and there such as domestic violence and I am sure something more... But I seem to have forgotten...

The male lead has a whole bunch of red flags, he even wears a red shirt to warn us. As he pretty much both stalks her and tries to guilt her in ot stuff at times... But the chemistry between the two leads is phenomenal, and he does experience some type of development. But as usual fun to watch, but in real life this can be pretty tricky.

I think i may have gotten a crush on the female lead, I am not going to say she is a very good actress overall but there is something about her that has me hooked. The more I see her the more I want to see of her. And honestly her character here is one of her best ones. She is both smart, human and kind but without coming off as pathetic.

But what I love most is the cringey lines meet good lines ...

”Choice is only for the rich”

The words "I love you" said over and over again in the most peculiar way...

“ I have no plans of being your future but I can be your now”
Oh come on... m... right... we all know how that is going to end...

The friendships here are pretty good too. So are the views... Hoodies and Umbrellas are also used pretty decently.

Definitely one of the better Pinoy Rom Cos I have seen, you just get passet those first moments av meeh...

"Hello, Love, Goodbye" is a filipino romantic drama film that stars Kathryn Bernardo and Alden Richards.It is also directed by Cathy Garcia Molina (who also directed blockbuster movies like "She's Dating the Gangster" and "The Hows of Us").I mostly watched this movie because i am a great fan of Kathryn Bernardo as an actress,but i eventually fell in love with all the characters and the story-line and all the messages behind it.Not to mention how great the on-screen chemistry is between Kathryn and Alden,i mean my god how they really gave it all in their performances!!This movie is art itself and showcased that wonderfully being set in Hong Kong.You get to follow a young woman`s struggle in survival and trying to make a sense of her life while also following her dreams.Kathryn`s character Joy Marie is a fighter.Life keep throwing challenges at her and she always steps back up.Life also gives her the womanizing bartender Ethan Del Rosario,who in every means strive to make her love him.Ethan and Joy are both relatable characters in this harsh world.They are honest with each other through and through,support each other in everything and really raises each other up in their dreams,even if it means letting the other person go.I think this film is so deep and beautiful.I couldn`t help but cry watching it.So lucky i was able to watch it on Netflix.
