Before seeing a foreign language movie I almost always check the movie rating. If it was any other movie then I would not watch the movie after seeing the rating in IMDb,but when I saw that there is no review available for this movie then it becomes pretty much obvious to watch the movie.

Now , the movie itself. It surely is an average movie not a must watch movie. Movie has a interesting story line although the comedy, emotion and serious parts of the movie not quite blend in perfectly. There are some dialogues that will definitely touch your heart.

I hate to say all about the movie , because it will ruin it for you if you decide to watch it, Because there is not much to tell. Although the movie could have been much more entertaining,at least it will not bore you to death ;)

Witty Humour!!!
pasang-sharma20 February 2015
I am a huge fan of Korean movies.However comedy(be it any sub genre) is not something you would want to get in too deep coming out from their neck of the woods. Koreans comedies are predominantly cheesy, clichéd,kiddish, frivolous and so on and so forth.

This movie for a change is a tad bit different and is not too bad.It starts of brilliantly.It has some really witty humor but you gotta keep your eyes moving. Reading the subtitles becomes strenuous and requires effort after a while which hampers understanding. The dialogues are spoken so fast,sometimes it is hard to keep track of what is going on... the lesser said about this movie the better.

A couple, A Casanova, Love!!!!Need i say more

6/10.Watch it if you have to kill time.

at least some comedy from Korea!
fluffset20 April 2013
Its been a while since I watch a comedy movie from Korea, because I more prefer to their thriller, you know how their thriller right? I feel so excited when I watch this because of its pretty interesting storyline that's no one can ever imagine, I think so. So, what a relief! It doesn't even disappointing me at all, from the start till the end it play with our emotion and make us follow the momentum. Its so good, I love it! Although its ending is quite predictable and can be even better if they reverse it, maybe they just don't want to disappoint their audiences. I still love it! Its been so long since they make a good comedy movie, lately all their comedy product is worst. If you want the real deal! This is it! Sorry for my bad English!

A South Korean romantic comedy with no swing to it...
paul_haakonsen29 June 2021
I sat down to watch the 2012 South Korean romantic comedy "All About My Wife" (aka "Nae anaeui modeun geot") here in 2021. I hadn't even heard about the movie before, but I hardly needed to, because all that mattered here for me was the fact that it was a South Korean movie.

The movie started out alright, and it seemed that writers Kyu-dong Min and Sung-hye Heo were on to something here. But then the movie just stagnated and flatlined. I managed to endure to about halfway through this two hour ordeal, then I just called it quits. The movie lost its momentum and became stale and boring. So director Kyu-dong Min wasn't really delivering something great here with the 2012 romantic comedy.

The acting in "All About My Wife" was good and they had some good actors and actresses on the cast list, but they were struggling with having a horrible script and storyline to work with. And I must admit that while I started out enjoying the movie and the characters, it quickly lost its appeal and grew mundane and boring.

For a romantic comedy, which is something that the South Korean cinema usually does so well, then "All About My Wife" was a swing and a miss. I have zero interest in returning to watch the remaining hour or so that I gave up on, because I simply just doesn't care about the storyline or the characters.

My rating of "All About My Wife" lands on a mere three out of ten stars.

Unique and Realistic in Comedic way...
gmprem-372899 April 2021
What hooked me was story. It is interesting and refreshing. The way story unfolds and how well neighbors makes advance to seduces main lead's wife is worth watching. Her reaction to advances is depicted well with her hidden turmoil and thoughts in realistic way so is husband's ever-growing jealousy and refusing to completely handover his wife which was also portrayed in light humorous way at the same time.

You wouldn't regret watching this movie at all. Good story, comedy and interesting characters. Satisfactory ending. Teaches new perspective on relationships. .
