Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Spoonatects Am i the only one who thinks........Average?

ChampDavSlim The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

kluseba I'm a big fan of Asian and South Korean cinema and I really dug some of their eccentric and humorous movies such as "Save The Green Planet!" or "Quick". "My Wife Is A Gangster" is though neither a good comedy nor a good gangster flick. The movie is quite overrated and had two unnecessary sequels.I must admit that the initial idea of the movie sounded promising. There were a couple of very good South Korean movies where a wife had some sort of a double identity and secret life as a special agent for example. "Shiri" is a great example and "My Girlfriend Is An Agent" also has its moments. That's why I have watched this movie. But the idea doesn't work very well on here. The two main actors don't have any chemistry. The weird situation of a female gangster married to a shy bourgeois husband could have been funny but the scenes in here are boring, the scenario isn't credible and the humour is very childish, predictable and superficial.The gangster side of the movie isn't any better. It feels as if it had been inspired by a few serious Yakuza movies by Takashi Miike or Takeshi Kitano and desperately wants to parody the genre. The whole thing doesn't work for two reasons. The actors are annoying, mostly bad and not credible at all. A naked gangster running after a punk through half a city isn't funny but more embarrassing than any bad Jackie Chan movie. Second, the characters are boring and you simply don't care about them.Then, there is the story of the movie. Well, what story? The gangster woman fulfills all wishes of her dying sisters and goes through a weird relationship with her husband. Meanwhile, her gangster clan beats up a few punks for any reason. When one of her guys gets killed, his friend suspects the wrong guy and his revenge fails horribly. When the gangster wife comes to save her gang, she loses but her life is spared. She later recovers from her injuries and her husband is ready to avenge her and become a gangster himself. That's it.The viewers have to accept that the stiff husband changed his mind and became a cool bad boy from one instant to the other because he loved his egoistic wife that never showed him any kind of appreciation so much. This rushed and silly story simply doesn't carry a film of almost two hours of running time.Is this scenario credible or original? No. Are there any surprising elements? No. Is there a coherent and gripping story line from the beginning to the end? Not really.Two or three scenes were at least a little bit interesting and slightly funny. That's why I gave three very generous points for this.I recommend you to avoid this movie if you are looking for intelligent humour, a few good gangster movie sequences and an original story. If you just feel like switching your brain off and enjoy some childish slapstick humour inspired by stereotypical Hongkong action comedy flicks and generic Japanese gangster films, go and waste your time.

Enchorde Recap: The second in command of a local gangster organisation, Cha Eun-Jin, doesn't live the typical life of a lady. So when her terminally ill sister asks her to find a man, she is really out of her normal environment. Lethal with knives, she is totally incompetent when it's about meeting a future husband. But with the aid of her henchmen she manages to marry the unsuspecting Kang Su-il. But being married to Eun-Jin isn't really all that Su-il expected...Comments: The rental-box put this in the romantic-genre. I really wonder about the sense of romance whomever wrote that really has. The first scene, for example, shows two men beaten with bats and knives, one of them executed with an axe, before Eun-Jin comes to the rescue with knives and martial arts. There are some red roses in the movie, but I really think bats and knives outnumber them. This movie is much more of a action-comedy. And as that, it is pretty successful. More than a few scenes are drawn to their edge with Su-il just wanting a good marriage and ordinary wife, and Eun-Jin trying to clean up in her criminal world and at the same time granting the wish of her sister by staying married to Su-il. Except for Eun-Jin's martial skills, they're not very good at it. And that's about it, and that's about all there has to be.But it's not very romantic. Not in any sense I know anyway.6/10

Henry Hassel Well, I can hardly find a good word of this annoying piece of movie. Maybe the best things are the the cinematography and the martial arts fights. But they can't beat bad scripts and dialogs. The script is confusing, most of the scenes does not fit together (why is Romeo dying in that pathetic way? Why is Mantis fighting in the fields? Why is her husband SO damned stupid? etc.). At one point it is just boring watching the persons in the movie acting senseless. And you never know, if it is meant to be a comedy or just an action flic, because the humor isn't really funny and the fights are sometimes too brutal for a comedy. No balance at all.I just hope the Hollywood remake will have a better script, because the idea of a gangster women having a "normal" husband is quite nice (a little bit reverse True Lies).

Sinnerman A commercial hit back in its home market, Korea. From the looks of the sold out crowd in its early release here in Singapore, "My Wife is a Gangster" looks set to become a regional box office hit as well.Take my word for it. Go into this film and have a great 2 hours of entertainment.
