The first time when 'The Rock' Dwayne Johnson turned into a fairy wearing that pink frock or dress with wings, I was howling with laughter. This man was one of my favourites when I used to watch WWE. He was so strong, menacing and seemed to be so bad and angry all the time. Then he made his foray into Hollywood and he was one of those rare WWE stars who actually had a charm about them. Nobody was more surprised than me when he started to do only Disney kind of films. I didn't think he would last long, but this guy has made it big in PG movies. He truly convinces us that he is not the bad-ass he was made out to be during his wrestling career and he is so genuinely charming. He is not embarrassed to make a fool out of himself and I think he really likes children. He carries the movie on his able shoulders with some help from other good actors. One constant thing about his movies is that he is a jerk in the beginning, who goes on to be a good guy in the end. That may sound boring and tiring, but Dwayne Johnson is genuinely funny in comedic moments and moves our heart in sad situations. So I like him as an actor and I hope he continues to make these kinds of family entertainers.Derek Thompson (Dwayne Johnson) is a local Ice Hockey player who is quite a celebrity and is nicknamed 'The Toothfairy' for his defending prowess on the field. But he is getting older and younger players are gaining more attention. One of them in particular, Mick Donnelly is rubbing his face in the fact that he is going somewhere in his life, and Derek will be a nobody. Derek has a girlfriend, Carly (Ashley Judd) who has two kids - a girl and a boy. When the girl's tooth breaks, she is excited about the real toothfairy who will take away her tooth and place a dollar under the pillow. Derek doesn't believe one should have dreams as it is highly unlikely that one will achieve their dreams and ultimately will be unhappy. So he tries to give it straight to her, that there are no fairies or any of the other imaginary creatures. Carly saves her daughter from the horrible truth and chides Derek for his stupidity. That night Derek receives a summons from 'The Department of Dissemination of Disbelief' from the Toothfairy Land. He is thrusted upon the job of a toothfairy for two weeks, with a threat to extend the punishment if he doesn't do it with the spirit of a toothfairy. When Derek finds out it wasn't a dream, his life changes drastically.What were you expecting when you sat down to see this movie? Citizen Kane?! Just enjoy the movie for what it is and stop grumbling about the inconsistencies of the movie. Hollywood is obsessed in making movies for kids which are way too sweet and saccharine and totally unreal. Though the premise of this movie about a man getting the job of a fairy is also unreal, it is actually quite good. The kids, though cute, are not exactly over the top sweet. The movie, as with all kid movies, has the moral that one should dream and not get dragged down by others who tell you that you are no good. Dwayne Johnson is believable as the jerk (somewhat sensitive, but still a jerk) and the transformed good hearted man. I really liked the scene where Derek imitates Dracula for the little girl, there are lots of sweet moments. The boy is a normal kid who doesn't have interest in anything other than music and girls. He doesn't like Derek, but Derek makes a deal with the boy to impress Carly. The toothfairy kit he's given; with the invisible spray and amnesia dust among other things is cool. Tracy (Stephen Merchant), the caseworker in Toothfairy Land is also funny, but I must say Julie Andrews is wasted as the fairy Godmother. I saw this with my younger cousins and they absolutely loved it. Recommended to everyone who like the Disney movies of this genre.7/10
Even though it's for kids, this movie turned out much better than I thought it would. The Rock pulls off the role of the Tooth Fairy quite well. He plays, Derek Thompson, a hockey player known as the Tooth Fairy because he knocks a lot of teeth out. He has a girlfriend played by Ashley Judd, why her I don't know because it is a very minor role, whom has 2 kids. One night Derek almost slips up and tells the young daughter there is no tooth fairy. But her mom saves the day. That night Derek is summoned to fairy land and in a unique way is given things for fairies to use and trained to fly. I liked this part the best. Billy Crystal cameos as Jimmy, the fairy whom gives him the shrinking paste, fairy dust, etc... Amnesia dust is great.So Derek is sentenced to 2 weeks as a tooth fairy by the head fairy, Julie Andrews. Of course, he learns valuable lessons over this time.I also liked the parts where he goes into people's homes in various ways. It was funny, we all need invisible spray.FINAL VERDICT: I liked it and recommend it.
