SYNOPSIS:
Sequal to My Wife is a Gangster, My Wife is a Gangster 2: Return of the Legend sees the return of Cha Eun-jin (Shin Eun-kyeong), female leader of one of Korea's big mafia families with wicked martial arts skills to boot. After losing her memory in a fight and having no sense of her identity, Cha is taken under the wing of and cared for by the unassuming Yoon Jae-chul (Park Joon-gyoo) and starts working in his Chinese restaurant as delivery person.
In the meantime, her mafia family is being attacked by another that wants to oust them and take over their territory and her former gangster associates are looking for her. After realizing her own extremely gifted and skillful use of knives and scissors and her ability to easily foil a recent bank robbery, Eun-jin becomes interested all the more in finding out more about her past and who she really is.

REVIEW:
" Although the sequel more or less pales in comparison to its predecessor, My Wife is a Gangster 2 does have its moments, and somehow, that's just enough to make it a film worth recommending. The segment of the plot that simply deals with Eun-Jin's insertion into a new domestic situation is probably the highlight of the picture, and is infinitely more interesting than the action sequences that are likely meant to be the series' bread and butter. As far as performances go, Shin Eun-Kyung is irresistible, as her character's tough girl persona makes for a humorous contrast with her new lifestyle among the locals. The film's approach to comedy is perhaps more silly than clever, but it's sure to bring a smile to your face one way or another.
My Wife is a Gangster 2 dispenses with its more humorous tendencies when the fight scenes commence, resuming the stylish abandon of the introductory rooftop brawl. In a manner of speaking, the fight scenes are funny, in the sense that the wire fu employed is so ridiculously over-the-top as to be laughable, even though it's all played totally straight. Although there's a heavy use of stunt doubles and quick edits, the choreography is fine, but those expecting to see more believable stunts employed in a modern day fight scene may find the high-flying wuxia-infused theatrics to be a bit hard to swallow.
When all is said and done, My Wife is a Gangster 2 isn't a masterpiece, and it won't likely make anyone's ten best list. But overall, it's a fun, good-natured sequel that gives viewers a chance to revisit the character of Cha Eun-Jin without abandoning what made audiences like her in the first place. If you like "fish-out-of-water" comedies or stylish action sequences, you could do worse than My Wife is a Gangster 2, a surprisingly entertaining, if not entirely substantial sequel. (Sanjuro 2006) "
