Contents

With a total revenue of ₱880 million, Hello, Love, Goodbye became the highest grossing Philippine film of all time, until it was surpassed by Rewind in January 2024. [1] [2] [3] It won several accolades, including Box Office Entertainment and PMPC Star awards. Produced and distributed by Star Cinema, the film was theatrically released on July 31, 2019, in the Philippines and started screening internationally on August 1, 2019. A sequel, Hello, Love, Again is set to be released in November 13, 2024, with Richards and Bernardo returning.

Plot

Joy is a nursing graduate who works as a domestic helper in Hong Kong. She aims to save enough money to find a better job in Canada in the hope of permanently moving there with her family in the Philippines. However, she is stymied by her father Celso, who wants to be reunited with his estranged wife Lita, who is married to a Hong Kong resident, Wayne, who regularly beats her. While working illegally as a bar tout, Joy receives the attention of the resident bartender, Ethan, who offers her a drink and returns her work documents after she goes into hiding from suspicious policemen.

Joy initially resists Ethan's advances, but after enduring an awkward visit to Lita, being scolded by her employer, and encountering her ex-boyfriend JM, Joy agrees to go on a one-night stand with Ethan at a motel. As they are about to begin, Joy rushes out and cries. As Ethan follows, she explains her frustrations with life, while Ethan confesses to being a womanizer who is unsure of what to do in life. This leads to a conditional understanding between the two to comfort each other in the remaining four months before Joy moves to Canada.

Ethan helps Joy get a clandestine job as a dishwasher in the bar. After Ethan goes absent for several days following an awkward visit by his drunk younger brother Edward, Joy traces Ethan to his father Mario's place. Ethan then reveals that his parents are Hong Kong residents who took their children to Hong Kong from the Philippines in the hopes that they gain residency and a better life. Ethan then became estranged from his family after he moved to the United States with his Filipino girlfriend Tanya, who then broke up with him. He was then deported back to Hong Kong and blacklisted for overstaying, which led to Edward, who was left alone to care for Mario, who was debilitated by a stroke, harboring a grudge against Ethan. Joy becomes jealous when Tanya visits Hong Kong and meets with Ethan, but the latter reassures Joy, creating a realization that their relationship has become romantic.

Ethan reveals his plans of setting up his own bar to redeem himself to his family and support Joy at the same time. Meanwhile, Joy, who finally has her departure for Canada confirmed, confronts Lita, who had been beaten again by Wayne. Lita confesses that she no longer loves Celso, who she resents for agreeing in the first place to marry off Lita, who was also a domestic helper, to Wayne, her employer in the hopes of her becoming a Hong Kong resident and lifting the family from poverty in what was originally planned to be a sham wedding. Upon hearing this from Joy, Celso calls off any hope of the family reuniting, throwing Joy's plans into disarray.

Ethan asks Joy if she could pretend to be an investor in his upcoming bar, which means that Joy would have to forego her departure for Canada. This leads to an argument wherein Ethan reveals that he wants to spend his future with Joy, who insists on going to Canada. However, Ethan relents when Joy reminds him that their relationship was bound by the conditions that they had set out previously and chastises him for not allowing her to pursue her dreams. Ethan later reconciles with his family and convinces Joy to spend her last days in Hong Kong enjoying each other's company as tourists. As the couple finally profess their love for each other, Ethan promises that they will meet again, while Joy promises to visit his bar, provisionally titled Ethan's Joy, in the future. The film ends with Joy at the airport on her way to Canada.

Special participation

Production

The film is starred by Kathryn Bernardo and Alden Richards. Both are affiliated with the two major rival networks in the Philippines: Bernardo with ABS-CBN and Richards with GMA Network. The two also belonged to two different "love teams": Bernardo with Daniel Padilla in Kathniel and Richards with Maine Mendoza in AlDub. Together, they play the role of two Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) in Hong Kong who became romantically involved with each other. [5] Director Cathy Garcia-Molina said that the two main cast members were not subjected to "baby or special treatment" for the film project. [6]

Filming for Hello, Love, Goodbye in Hong Kong has begun by April 2019, [7] amidst the early period of the 2019–20 Hong Kong protests, and was completed after a month. [8] Principal photography for the film ended by May 19, 2019, in Parañaque. [9] Post-production work for Hello, Love, Goodbye was done in Bangkok, Thailand, with ABS-CBN Film Productions collaborating with Thai production firm Kantana Group. It was the first collaboration between the two firms. [10]

Release

Hello, Love, Goodbye premiered in the Philippines on July 31, 2019. [11] The film also made history in Saudi Arabia as the first Filipino film to be screened in cinemas in Jeddah. [12]

Reception

Box office

The film became the highest-grossing Filipino film of all time after earning over ₱880.6 million worldwide gross revenue on September 3, 2019, surpassing the film The Hows of Us that was also directed by Molina and starred by Bernardo. [2] [13] This record was held by the film until January 2024, when it was surpassed by Rewind .

Domestic

The film on its opening day earned a total of ₱34.4 million from over 350 cinemas in the Philippines. [14] Three days after its local release, the film was reported to have earned ₱110.8 million. [15] After four days, the film earned ₱176.6 million [16] and was shown in 465 cinemas nationwide. [16] As of August 12, 2019, the film has grossed ₱505.7 million domestically in 13 days of showing. [17] After 17 days in cinemas, the film has grossed ₱603 million domestically. [18]

International

The film earned US$2.1 million in box office receipts abroad on its first week of release. [19] The film was also recognized now the highest-grossing Filipino film in the Middle East for earning over US$1 million as of August 18. [20] It is also the highest-grossing Filipino film in Australia, New Zealand and United Kingdom earning over US$195,336, [21] US$60,459 [22] and US$32,313 [23] respectively.

Critical response

Filipino film critic Philbert Dy gave the film a rating of 4 out of 5 and praised Bernardo's performance. [24] Oggs Cruz, writing for Rappler, reviewed the film thus, "Hello, Love, Goodbye is fine entertainment – one that doesn’t dumb down the issues it puts forward for the sake of a standard happy ending." He pointed out that while the romantic plot was formulaic and characters seemed to have become stereotypical, the film's strengths were its depiction of Hong Kong through the female protagonist's perspective and of the struggles of overseas Filipino workers as domestic helpers. [25] In his review, Armando B. Chavez of Philippine Daily Inquirer said that the love story stood out due to the "backdrop of the plight of OFWs in Hong Kong." He also praised the musical editing, the close-up shots of the protagonists, and performances of Bernardo and Richards, describing them as tour de force. He wrote, "This is a date movie if ever there’s one. As they say back home, “just feel the feeling.” Sit back, secretly dab the tears away... resistance is futile." [26] The Toronto-based The Philippine Reporter, Ysh Cabana wrote "Despite having a woman filmmaker at the helm, it doesn’t reflect on the experience of nurses, mostly women, arriving in Canada struggling to take competency assessments or to enter a bridging program just to be able to practice their international education. This reinforces middle-class fantasy production." [27]

Ricky Lo of The Philippine Star gave a generally positive review of the film particularly the comic relief provided by Abella, Bautista, and Entrata. [28] Tito Genova Valiente however disagreed and considered the trio's performances as "aggravating" while praising Bernardo and Richard, stating, "There is Bernardo with perhaps the quietest performance for any actress of her generation. Bernardo can act within a small frame, holding her face solidly as if a slight movement will mar that portrayal... Alden gets the cinematographic love, as well. His Ethan starts fun and ends tragic but with lots of hope, even if it does not matter what happens to that hope. When those tears fall from Richards's eyes, they bring us back to those old, old cinemas of leading men looking beautiful and strong in grief." [29]
