Hello Love Again, Honest Review from a
non-KathDen fan
(But take in mind, I rarely share reviews 😂)
I watched HLA because I really liked HLG- it was a well written story with a fresh plot uncommon to typical filipino movies. Damang-dama mo sa HLG that it was backed with a lot of research and developments. Although I could not say the same for HLA. I feel like this was made kinda rush to satisfy Kathryn’s fans, something for them to look forward after that controversial break-up. BUT it did succeed, hands down sobrang galing ng acting ni ante mo KATH huhu! 💯
Here are some of my points:
-I feel like nahirapan sila to fit everything within 2 hours. Too much is happening and too many supporting characters. Mabilis mag transition ang mood ng movie. From a cold hearted Marie to a marupowk Joy. Their airport reunion after 3 years was also very teleserye ang atake. 😅
-Since there’s a lot of supporting characters very konti nlng exposure ng iba parang extra nlng talaga. Also, Baby (Jennica Garcia) is a very good actress pala noh. I wished her character was given more depth. Valerie Concepcion & Ruby Rose together with the son feels unnecessary I don’t even recall their character’s name. Also, how they end up in one barkada with Ethan and Jhim feels too good to be true. 😅
-Ang Galing ni Joross! Parang half of the movie’s success dapat sakanya iparangal 😂
-Kudos for showcasing the real experiences of OFW’s . Joy and Ethan gave justice to it. With their emotions parang na experience talaga nila mag work there.
To sum it all up, HLG indeed was way better than HLA in my point of view. If you are a diehard KATHDEN fan for sure sobrang ma e-enjoy mo ang laplapan scenes. 🤪 That’s why I think it’s really catered for them this time. Regardless, I still enjoyed watching it bumawi naman ang KathDen sa acting plus ang ganda na lalo ni Kathryn love her aura na talaga.
P.S. I said I’m not a KathDen fan but nag start na ako manood ng videos nila sa Fyp ko while smiling. Second pic po pala KATHDEN baka ma confuse lang.🤪
