While I'm not a big fan of watching movies that are based on books that I have read, I am making plans with my sister to see One for the Money this weekend. Any other Stephanie Plum fans heading to the movies this weekend?

I want to go see it, but I don't know if I will be able to or not. (I have two funerals to attend this weekend)

Good one Pale!
Becca - I can't decide if I should do a quick reread of the book or just go with it and not be too critical.

Heading there tomorrow night with a couple of friends. We have read all the books and are Ranger Fans. Although, I know movie-wise I'll be a Morelli fan because he was cast so much better than Ranger.

I'll wait to hear y'all's reviews. I am so disappointed in the casting that I'll wait and see what other people who like the stories think of it.

I am so excited to see this movie! I hope it's good. I love the books and will be disappointed if the movie doesn't hold true. Those books make me laugh out loud sometimes. Hilarious! Also interested to see how Ranger looks on screen.

I'm going on Wednesday night with a girlfriend. I'm going to do my best to separate the book from the movie. I didnt do a re-read. That way I wont be too disappointed.

Ok I saw it today and was very disappointed. It wasn't even good as just a movie, let alone one take from a great series of books. Thank goodness I only paid matinee prices

I didn't hate it but...wait for it to come out on DVD. There was something just a little off about Katherine Heigl's Stephanie Plum. She had a blank look on her face for most of the movie. Didn't warm up to the guy that portrayed Morelli. Didn't hate Daniel Sunjata as Ranger and Sherri Shepard as Lula was a good casting. Stephanie's parents and Grandma Mazur...bleh.
