New Jersey native Stephanie Plum (Katherine Heigl) has plenty of attitude, even if she is broke after six months of unemployment. Desperate for money, Stephanie convinces her cousin to give her a job as a recovery agent with his bail-bond company. What she lacks in experience she makes up for in moxie, and she intends to bring in her cousin's biggest bail-jumper: Joe Morelli (Jason O'Mara), a former vice cop and murder suspect who broke Stephanie's heart when she was in high school.

Critics Consensus

Dull and unfunny, One For the Money wastes Katherine Heigl's talents on a stunningly generic comic thriller.

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

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

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

1.0/4.0

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

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.

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

Not great writing. Not great direction. Ms Heigl brings beauty and pretty good comedic timing. The chemistry is quite good between the leads.

Once again Hollywood takes a good book and turns it into a terrible movie. Additionally, whenever a no-talent actress bankrolls (Exec Producer) a film just so she can star in it it has flop potential. Heili was so full of herself she didn't even make an attempt to research Steph or attempt to play her. The characters (save Lula, played by Sheri Shepherd) are horrible. Debbie Reynold made a feeble attempt at Grandma Mazur and failed. Casting didn't even try!! Jason O'Mara & Daniel Sunjata are about a 1-Minus on the hot meter as Morelli and Ranger, and again, they didn't even bother to read the book to get in character. This was all Hollywood and no Jersey. Heigl and O'Mara didn't even attempt Jersey and Sunjata was so un-Ranger it was pitiful and painful to watch. With the books you always looked forward to seeing what Janet Evanovich would come up with next...with this movie you just counted the minutes until it was over. This could have been a mini-series with the right cast, but no-talent, impressed with themselves actors made it an epic fail.

Filme: Como Agarrar Meu Ex-Namorado Assistido: 10-11-24 Elenco: @katherineheigl @johnleguizamo @danielsunjata1_ @jasonomaraofficial @sherrieshepherd @pfischler @realadampaul @leonardo_nam @fisherstevens Modelo: #comédia #policial Duração: 1h 31m Ano: 2012 Minha opinião: Uma comédia que temos Heigl no papel de uma caça recompensa. Temos outros filmes do gênero como Domino e Caçador de Recompesa que temos Jennifer Aniston e Gerard Butler que é parecido com este filme. Aqui temos uma desempregada e que esta para se despejada Stephaine (Heigl) e sem encontrar um trabalho, consegue um bico com o primo uma caça recompensa e pega um caso que lhe pode dar 50.000 dolares. E ele se trata de um policial que também é um ex caso. Joe (O’Mara) e temos um outro caçador para lhe ajudar Ranger (Sunjata) e temos o criminoso Jimmy (Leguizamo). Uma comédia legalzinha, mas ao estilo de Heigl. É bom para assistir e descontrair. Temos uma boa atuação dos atores. Temos as cenas de Stephane e Joe bastante ilaria e isso da o tempero para o filme e toda vez que o caldo aperta temos Ranger para salva-la. Um filme onde Joe esta buscando limpar seu nome. Um filme que acaba aprofundando e descobre que tudo esta envolvendo o trafico de heroína. E quando tudo é descober e descobre que Jimmy é traficante e morto e Joe preso e Stepha ganha a rempensa e depois Joe e inocentado. E vivem na mesma vipe de aprontarem um ao outro. Roteiro e enredo bons. Vale apena assistir? Sim. Nota: 6,5
