YesAsia Editorial Description

Given that she throws tantrums, gets intoxicated, and pushes people away when she needs them the most, it's a wonder New York theater star Margo Channing has any true friends. But when Eve Harrington, Margo's young and innocent-seeming protégée, schemes to gain both the affection of Margo’s friends and a starring role originally written for Margo, the actress discovers just who is in her corner--and who is not. Released in 1950, ALL ABOUT EVE's power radiates undimmed through the years. The role of aging stage star Margo Channing is considered by many to be the best of Bette Davis's career, as Davis reveals and conceals Margo's vulnerabilities with a skill seldom seen onscreen. Anne Baxter is also marvelous as the subtle Eve, whose glowing enthusiasm masks a cold, calculated ambition. Both actresses garnered Best Actress Oscar nominations, and the film in its entirety took 14 nominations, winning seven of them, including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Screenplay. George Sanders was awarded Best Supporting Actor for his biting portrayal of potent, nasty theater critic Addison DeWitt. Consistently listed among the best films of all time, director-writer Joseph L. Mankiewicz's ALL ABOUT EVE shouldn’t be missed; the acting, writing, and directing are unequivocally brilliant.

"...One of Hollywood's ultimate valentines to the Great White Way --...a valentine laced with poison..." -- Rating: A - Glenn, Kenny (Premiere/Entertainment Weekly Critic), Entertainment Weekly, 05/12/1995

"...Davis was a character, an icon with a grand style..." - Roger, Ebert (Critic and screenwriter), Chicago Sun-Times, 01/19/2001

"...Line for quotable line, quite simply the best-written Hollywood movie ever..." - Mark, Harris (Entertainment Weekly Critic), Entertainment Weekly, 01/24/2003

"This acid-tongued grande dame of the theatah gave us our first glimpse of malignant narcissism and neediness run amok..." - Premiere Staff (Premiere Staff), Premiere, 04/01/2004

"[I]t's witty, literate, cruel, devastating." - Chris, Roberts (Uncut Critic), Uncut, 05/01/2005

"It's hard to think of a more celebrated backstage drama in Hollywood history, and the script bristles with acerbic wit." - Matthew, Leyland (Film Critic), Sight and Sound, 04/01/2006

fantastic Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
It really is a great drama. The characters were perfect, the storyline and the love story were perfect. ChaeRim and her opponent were great to watch, even though her opponent was evil in the end i really thought she was great. Jang Dong gun and the other guy were also perfect additions. just overall great!!

WOW! Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
This drama is one of the best K-dramas of all time. The premise is two girls who both want to be anchors for the news. One is plain yet sweet, the other is beautiful yet dark (picture an evil Asian Uma Thurman). The drama depicts the struggles that each girl faces as they try to achieve there dreams. One will risk everything to get what she wants, the other achieves hers through her dedication and strong moral ethics. This drama has everything you could want from a K-drama; love, betrayal, comedy and tears. The acting is outstanding and it moves at a fast enough pace that you won't get bored. Buy it because it is definitely one you will re-watch. Han-Jae-Suk is incredible and plays such a different role than he did in Glass Slipper. The real show stealer though is Jang Dong Gun who could not be sexier if he tried. Fantastic, don't miss it!

Simply Flawless! Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
Possibly my favorite K-Drama. Strong acting, pacing and a brilliant ending! I couldn't stop watching this and finally after watching episodes 1-8 non-stop had to put it down. This one does not drag one bit, all the characters are interesting. Perhaps one unrealistic part is that the two leads are so clearly black-and-white 'good vs. evil', but it makes for great entertainment. 'Eve' has serious parts, emotional parts plus a few laughs. Perfect!

A very hard pill to swallow :( Customer Review Rated Bad 2 - 2 out of 10
Hello everyone, after reading all the rave reviews about this movie I went over to the local video store and purchased this series for myself. All I have to say is that the only thing that keeps me glued to this series is Jang Dong Gun. Otherwise I would have given up. I'm still not finished yet having 6 more discs to watch but it is just going nowhere. First of all it's Chae Rim, her phony nose and her overactting just kills me. Many of the other characters that I'm still trying familiarize myself with, they are just beyond horrible with the things they say and do to one another. For now, HOTELIER is still my number 1 Korean Tv Series with DAE JANG GEUM coming in second. I apologize if my review might be a hard pill to swallow considering this series had so many great reviews. Well, I still have 6 more discs to go and so we'll see what happens.

Pretty Good Customer Review Rated Bad 9 - 9 out of 10
Again this was another refreshing positive movie aside from the usual tear jerkers. I enjoyed the little romance here and there. I also like the theme that not all pretty faces have a good heart and love trescend money and beauty. I only wished the villian girl had a more fitting punishment. heheheh Well this movie scores high with me but not perfect.
