Katherine Heigl may have finally killed her career with this appallingly amateur adaptation of the first of Janet Evanovich’s best-selling series about Stephanie Plum, the comically bumbling bounty hunter from New Jersey. As Plum, Heigl wanders through a graveyard of bad accents and Jersey stereotypes, looking for a guy who skipped out on her in high school and has now skipped out on bail. It’s about as exciting as watching a woman search her purse for her car keys. One for the Money seems less like a movie than a series of bad takes on a blooper reel; maybe it’s not even fair to judge it as a movie.
