While he doesn't come close to saving the film, John Leguizamo at least redeems himself in an otherwise sparkless film.

| Original Score: 1.0/4.0 | Sep 18, 2020

In all honesty, this film did not have my attention. I was bored after 10 minutes and I really didn't care what was happening.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Dec 2, 2019

Think of her as Elle Woods from Legally Blonde minus the charm, intelligence and work ethic.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Sep 28, 2017

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.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jun 2, 2012

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.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 3, 2012

One For The Money is a paint-by-numbers chick-flick that'll make you laugh a few times but won't particularly enamour.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 1, 2012

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.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Feb 29, 2012

Heigl deserves better than this.

| Feb 28, 2012

Ultimately, it's further proof that Katherine Heigl picks her projects by stapling all potential scripts to a wall and throwing a dart.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Feb 25, 2012

The film miscasts Heigl and doesn't do much good for Debbie Reynolds as Grandma, either.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Feb 24, 2012

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).

| Original Score: 0/5 | Feb 23, 2012

As bland and flavourless as movies come. Please God, no Two For The Show!

| Original Score: 1/5 | Feb 23, 2012

Is there no stopping Katherine Heigl? Please.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 20, 2012

With yet another ho-hum run at the multiplexes, Katherine Heigl's big-screen resumé is fast looking like an insider's gag.

| Original Score: 1/10 | Feb 19, 2012

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.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 13, 2012

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.

Full Review | Feb 9, 2012

...a second-rate and consistently worthless Out of Sight knockoff...

| Original Score: 1/4 | Feb 4, 2012

If the filmmakers can't be bothered to believe in the real-world implications of its premise, then why ever should we?

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 3, 2012

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.

| Original Score: C | Feb 3, 2012

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.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Feb 3, 2012
