<p>February marks the month of love as everyone around the world celebrates Valentine’s Day on the 14th. While not everyone has a special someone to celebrate the special occasion with, here are five <em>hugot</em> films whether you’re single, feeling lonely, or just want to emote this Valentine weekend.</p><div><br/></div><p>These films are available on various platforms such as YouTube, Netflix, Prime, Viu, among others.</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>Labs Kita, Okey Ka Lang?</strong></div><div><br/></div><div><iframe width="1100" height="619" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/DQjIVcdSJOk" title="‘Labs Kita, Okey Ka Lang?’ FULL MOVIE | Jolina Magdangal, Marvin Agustin" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><div><br/></div><p>One of the classic rom-com films that raised a generation. On screen couple Marvin Agustin and Jolina Magdangal showcase their chemistry in this movie. This is a good hugot film if you’re in love with your best friend but haven’t confessed yet.</p><div><br/></div><p>Unforgettable line: “Oh, yes kaibigan mo &#x27;ko. Kaibigan mo lang ako. And that&#x27;s all I ever was to you, Ned, your best friend… and I&#x27;m so stupid to make the biggest mistake of falling in love with my best friend.” (Jolina as Bujoy)</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>The Hows of Us</strong></div><div><br/></div><div><iframe width="1100" height="619" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/9C5w28q6JgA" title="The Hows Of Us Official Trailer | Kathryn Bernardo, Daniel Padilla | &#x27;The Hows Of Us&#x27;" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><div><br/></div><p>Get ready to wipe your tears away with this Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla film. If you’re into giving second chances to your ex or following the your heart’s desire, this film is the perfect fit for you.</p><div><br/></div><p>Unforgettable line: “Matalino akong tao eh pero pagdating sayo, ewan ko, natatanga ako.&quot; (Kathryn as George)</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>I’m Drunk I Love You</strong></div><div><br/></div><div><iframe width="1100" height="619" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/SiZ1hDkjrno" title="I&#x27;m Drunk, I Love You (2017) | Full Movie | Maja Salvador | Paulo Avelino | TBA Studios" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><div><br/></div><p>Just like the film’s synopsis, this isn’t a love story that everyone thinks it is. Seven years of loving her best friend–– doing everything for him and even some more only to not get the same energy back from him. This is the perfect film to watch this weekend if you’re like Carson (played by Maja Salvador) who fell into the friendzone.</p><div><br/></div><p>Unforgettable line: “Mahal kita, seven years na. Seven years na kitang mahal.” (Maja as Carson)</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>Starting Over Again</strong></div><div><br/></div><div><iframe width="1100" height="619" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/oH2-2B2w0wg" title="‘Starting Over Again’ FULL MOVIE | Piolo Pascual, Toni Gonzaga" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><div><br/></div><p>If you were ghosted by someone and years later, they wanted you back, this could be the film just for you. <em>Starting Over Again</em> showcases the realistic side of being ghosted by someone you thought you’d be with forever. </p><div><br/></div><p>Unforgettable line: “Anong karapatan mong hingin ang bagay na ipinagdamot mong ibigay? I deserve an explanation. I deserve an acceptable reason.” (Piolo Pascual as Marco)</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>That Thing Called Tadhana</strong></div><div><br/></div><p>Where do broken hearts go? Definitely in Sagada. This film became an instant cult classic and paved the way for many hugot films to be produced even until today. If you’re like Mace (played by Angelica Panganiban) who’s trying to move on from their failed relationship, give this movie a go–– in case you haven’t watched it.</p><div><br/></div><p>Unforgettable line: “Hindi. Na. Kita. Mahal. Makakaalis. Ka. Na. Seven words. ‘Yung 8 years namin, kinaya niyang tapusin in 7 words.” (Angelica as Mace) </p><div><br/></div><p>These five <em>hugot</em> films will surely make your Valentine’s weekend a memorable one. </p>
