New One for the Money movie list

New movie list One for the Money A proud, born-and-bred Jersey girl, Stephanie Plum's got plenty of attitude, even if she's been out of work for the last six months and just lost her car to a debt collector. Desperate for some fast cash, Stephanie turns to her last resort: convincing her sleazy cousin to give her a job at his bail bonding company...as a recovery agent. True, she doesn't even own a pair of handcuffs and her weapon of choice is pepper spray, but that doesn't stop Stephanie from taking on Vinny's biggest bail-jumper: former vice cop and murder suspect Joe Morelli - yup, the same sexy, irresistible Joe Morelli who seduced and dumped her back in high school. -- (C) Lionsgate Release Date One for the Money Jan 27, 2012 Wide

Review For One for the Money
Didn't Jennifer Aniston already do a bounty hunter movie? Talk about sloppy seconds. Roger Moore-McClatchy-Tribune News Service An ungainly mix of flat-footed gumshoeing and strained attempts at hilarity, all delivered with an unconvincing Joizy vibe. Sheri Linden-Los Angeles Times The movie has the by-the-numbers efficiency of a decent TV series, and about as much flavor. Mark Feeney-Boston Globe There have been notable exceptions, but Heigl tends to imbue her characters with an off-putting mix of insecurity and abrasiveness. This film is a prime example. Elizabeth Weitzman-New York Daily News I guess I can't call the movie sexist as it was largely produced, directed and written by women. So I'll settle for calling it dull, corny and amateurish instead. Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger There is action of a sort -- a car blows up, shots are fired -- and what might pass for witty, sexy banter to someone who once overheard a conversation about an episode of Moonlighting. A.O. Scott-New York Times One doesn't need to have any familiarity with the Stephanie Plum novel series to immediately hear and see what an ill fit Katherine Heigl is for the role. Michael Dequina-TheMovieReport.com Light and fluffy as a cupcake, Katherine Heigl's many talents are truly wasted in this story based on the first of eighteen best-selling Stephanie Plum novels. Simon Weaving-Screenwize One For The Money is a paint-by-numbers chick-flick that'll make you laugh a few times but won't particularly enamour. Sam Bathe-Fan The Fire Apart from the three girls behind me constantly shifting their legs so that it made my otherwise empty row feel as if I was in an earthquake, One For The Money is an utterly lifeless, joyless experience. Graham Young-Birmingham Post Heigl deserves better than this. Ed Whitfield-The Ooh Tray Ultimately, it's further proof that Katherine Heigl picks her projects by stapling all potential scripts to a wall and throwing a dart. Shaun Munro-What Culture The film miscasts Heigl and doesn't do much good for Debbie Reynolds as Grandma, either. -This is London Director Julie Anne Robinson never finds a convincing tone and ruins everything with over-emphatic comedy reaction shots and a music track that keeps telling us how funny everything is (it isn't). Christopher Tookey-Daily Mail [UK] As bland and flavourless as movies come. Please God, no Two For The Show! Dan Stewart-Little White Lies Is there no stopping Katherine Heigl? Please. Siobhan Synnot-Scotsman With yet another ho-hum run at the multiplexes, Katherine Heigl's big-screen resumé is fast looking like an insider's gag. Ed Gibbs-The Sun Herald Heigl's fine and there's some zingy dialogue, but the violence jars with the comedy and, despite being written and directed by women, it still comes off as needlessly sexist. Ken McIntyre-Total Film The supposedly feisty Plum keeps following the lead of the two hunky men in her life. Scrape off the Elmore-Leonard-lite scuzz, and this is just a retroinactive rom-com. Brian Gibson-Vue Weekly (Edmonton, Canada) ...a second-rate and consistently worthless Out of Sight knockoff... David Nusair-Reel Film Reviews If the filmmakers can't be bothered to believe in the real-world implications of its premise, then why ever should we? Kimberley Jones-Austin Chronicle Someday to be used in film schools as a textbook example of how not to adapt a best-selling novel for the screen, One for the Money is mis-cast, mis-scripted, and mis-directed in every category. Nell Minow-Beliefnet Compared to someone like Jennifer Lopez in Out of Sight, Stephanie is a total drip who needs to get her head on straight before she picks up a weapon again. Grae Drake-Movies.com
