A star rating of 3 out of 5.

Jayne Nelson

This tongue-in-cheek, action-packed crime comedy from South Korea is set very much in the Mr and Mrs Smith mould. Married couple Mi-seon (Yum Jung-ah) and Kang-moo (Hwang Jung-min) are in a rut. She's a kickass police detective fond of Tasering drug dealers; he's a school bus driver and, in her eyes, a boring house-husband. But Kang-moo has a James Bond-style secret past. After he bumps into former colleague Hee-joo (Jeon Hye-jin), they set out to solve a kidnapping and thwart an arms dealer. Naturally, Mi-seon is investigating the same case and their missions cross - hence the film's title. When she spots her hubby with Hee-joo, she assumes that he's having an affair and is furious. The film has great fun playing its story as one-quarter sweet romcom and one-quarter slapstick farce. The rest? Bruising violence with lots and lots of gunfire. The characters are likeable and writer/director Lee Myung Hoon paces things nicely - even if you do recognise every single plot twist from other action movies.
