    Hello, Love, Goodbye (2019) Review: Love on a Work Visa

    Hello, Love, Goodbye is Cathy Garcia-Sampana's Hong Kong romance about two Filipino migrant workers, lifted above formula by Kathryn Bernardo and Alden Richards.

    Yes. It is a heartfelt, well-acted Filipino romance that gives migrant workers' lives real weight, best for viewers who enjoy a good cry and do not mind a familiar formula.
