One for the Money Reviews

Movie Reviews

• wasn't worth it

  by Elizabeth Weitzman [New York Daily News ]

• the tangled plot threads-involving scary, dead, and sassy black and brown people unfold with the same degree of miserable

  by Melissa Anderson [Village Voice ]

• the best things in "One for the Money" all have an out-of-left-field quality the rest of the movie lacks

  by Mark Feeney [Boston Globe ]

• tedious and tonally inept

  by Andrew Barker [Variety ]

• so weary and uninspired that it feels more like an exhausted end than an energetic beginning

  by A.O. Scott [New York Times ]

• so godawful there'll never be another Plum movie to rectify this mess

  by Peter Travers [Rolling Stone ]

• it may just mean that the story isn’t as intense or powerful in the middle as it is in the beginning and the end

  by Nathalie Atkinson [The Vancouver Sun ]

• it dull, corny and amateurish instead

  by Stephen Whitty [Newark Star-Ledger ]

• given the dreary quality of this first effort, a sequel seems a long shot

  by Liam Lacey [Globe and Mail ]

• bad screenplay structure, unsnappy "snappy" dialogue, bland characters blandly played, flat, tedious direction

  by Roger Moore [Dallas Morning News ]

• an ungainly mix of flat-footed gumshoeing and strained attempts at hilarity, all delivered with an unconvincing Joizy vibe

  by Sheri Linden [Los Angeles Times ]

• although the film's official running time is listed as 106 minutes, it actually seemed closer to 90

  by Frank Scheck [Hollywood Reporter ]
