Katherine Heigl stars in a scene from the movie "One for the Money." The Catholic News Service classification is A-III – adults. The Motion Picture Association of America rating is PG-13 – parents strongly cautioned. Some material may be inappropriate for children under 13. (CNS photo/Lionsgate)NEW YORK –– The title of the forgettable fish-out-of-water comedy "One for the Money" (Lionsgate) recalls Carl Perkins' seminal hit, "Blue Suede Shoes," a song covered most famously, of course, by Elvis Presley. While this lukewarm cinematic offering won't knock you down or step in your face, its surfeit of profane dialogue does slander God's name all over the place.

So our advice: Go, cat, go – away from any theater showing it.

In a project that seems to have been conceived as a vehicle for her, but which turns out to get her nowhere, Katherine Heigl plays unemployed New Jersey department store saleswoman Stephanie Plum. With repo men on the trail of her expensive sports car, and her landlord dunning her for back rent, Stephanie accepts an unlikely job opportunity working as a bail bondsman.

Via a degree of coincidence not often encountered off the silver screen, Stephanie's first target for recapture turns out to be an old flame from high school days, Joe Morelli (Jason O'Mara). An ex-cop and current murder suspect, Joe is also the man – so Stephanie ruefully informs us – who took her virginity then promptly spurned her.

(Perhaps, instead of "Blue Suede Shoes," Stephanie should have been listening to the Shirelles' plaintive inquiry of a few years later, "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow." But we digress.)
