Goodbye, Love Please...
This was cringe, story felt off and with a lot of over the top stuff. miles, miles away from the fist seasons charm this seemed to try to tell a similar story about the hardships of starting over in a new country but without the charm of the first season. Kathryn Bernardos acting and presance is the only reason I made it til the end of this but by the end of the show I purely could not have cared less about the rest of the cast besides maybe the hot americano...
P.s. while the prequel has lots of good lines this one repeated some of the old and added one good line about an americano... thats it.

You are my home, but what if that home is full of regrets?
As the movie title suggests, it is a simple second chance romance storyline with full of crying, shouting and regrets.I loved LOVED the prequel movie "Hello Love, Goodbye!" and been eagerly waiting for this to release. But after watching it, the excitement, it's gone. Completely gone. It's not like I didn't know what will happen but there are certain things that were overlooked for the sake of "love" even if that love questions you "will it last this time?"
One thing that I'm not quite happy with is Ethan cheating on Joy. I know he was not sober, not in his right mind, completely lost, mourning but still, still I can not help but wonder, can you rebuilt trust once it's broken? It takes time. I was totally happy with the previous ending, I was ready to accept sad ending but this happy ending disappointed me.
All above thess, my love for Kathryn Bernardo is infinite and irreplaceable. She singlehandedly carried the whole movie. Her expressions, crying, antics are to die for! God, what an amazing actress she is ><
Overall, whoever watches the first part and dying to know what will happen and sucker for happy endings, then please go ahead and watch it. It's still a pretty movie with foreign setting and beautiful scenery.

Story of Growth and Choosing your Home
Please watch the Hello Love Goodbye first. There are a LOT of references which you will miss if you didn’t watch the first movie.STORY: Just like the first movie, this one also portrayed the struggles of working overseas. They have also incorporated the global pandemic into the plot. We saw Joy and Ethan in their ups and downs, in their best and worst moments. I loved how this showed us how human and realistic they felt during all that they went through together.
CAST/ACTING: Both phenomenal actors. Kathryn and Alden are powerhouses in this. They also have really great dynamics on screen. I felt like the most raw moments were the moments that only have them both on screen acting their heart out. I would love to see a new movie with them as main leads once again.
MUSIC: I loved it! There’s music from the first movie that still brings back all the feels. The new soundtrack [“Palagi” ~ directly translates as “Always”] is so fitting in their story.
REWATCH: I want to rewatch this immediately after I finished watching in the cinema.
Definitely will recommend people to watch this! All the feels, great story flow, oozing chemistry and amazing performance from the actors.

I expected more tbh
Another "ex is back" story just like the movie "Un/happy for you" also from 2024... But at least this one has a good ending. Filipinos working in Hong Kong, now Filipinos working in Canada. My parents also met in Hong Kong (besides the point but) I like that it's very realistic about how difficult it can be for hardworking Filipinos abroad. The lovestory was a bit less realistic... The first movie was definitely better. I would've given it a lower score if it wasn't for the ending making everything worth it :) Great actors obviously. But I won't watch it againWas this review helpful to you?
