Why so much hype?

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

A bad deed on the part of a tough minor-league hockey player results in an unusual sentence: He must serve one week as a real-life tooth fairy. The Rock somehow took a role that was against his physical from and things that he is known for and yet somehow he passed as a Tooth Fairy quite well and gave a terrific and cute perfomance as the title character also the rest of the cast does a great job as well and the film has some nice real life special effects that he liked doing himself as he stated. Tooth Fairy is aimed for the whole Family and it does it's job quite well.

This basically serves as a vehicle for Dwayne Johnson and a formula family film-it succeeds reasonably in both areas. Johnson plays an aging minor league hockey player who ruins a lady's kid's fantasies of the tooth fairy and gets sentenced to a week's sentence as-you guessed it-a tooth fairy! He also takes a hockey phenom under his wings on the hockey rink.As a family film, it basically succeeds. I liked the scenes of "The Rock" with Ashley Judd and the kids-those were cute. I also loved the scenes of him in "tooth fairy land"-those were hilarious! So were the scenes of him interacting with his "case worker." Julie Andrews was good as the "head tooth fairy," and I liked Billy Crystal in it. This was mostly aimed at kids.**1/2 out of ****

While it's better then most family related movies(which isn't a very big compliment), I would have to guess that this movie was done by Dwayne Johnson as a contractual obligation. He did The Game Plan and Race to Witch Mountain which are also Disney movies so I'm assuming this was just to fulfill a 3 picture deal he had with Disney. While it's still a serviceable movie it's not the genre of movies that Rocky is best equipped at. He's definitely good in movies where he uses his comedy but he also needs to do some action work like how he's now going to be a part of the G.I. Joe and Fast & Furious franchises. I think Dwayne might be wise to try to get a role if they do an Expendables 3 movie. Seeing him on screen with the likes of Stallone, Willis and Arnold would be a nice passing of the torch kind of thing going on.

I was channel surfing the other day through the movie channels and came across Tooth Fairy, the title is already bad enough but I figured some of these family movies have a few good laughs so just to give the movie a fair chance since I haven't seen it before. Now I'm wondering if in Hollywood the way a script is made is they take a very macho tough actor and see what would be funny on a poster to see him dressed in. Don't believe me? Just think of Arnold Schwartzenegger on the cover of Junior or Vin Dessel on the cover of The Pacifier, now let's take it a step further with putting Dwayne Johnson in a pink dress with fair wings. Makes you wonder what kind of money they must have been flashing at him in order for him to say yes to this script. Now to be fair, I wasn't the audience that was intended for this movie, but like I said I like to be fair to movies. However this movie was just lazy and like I said, someone thought of the poster and how funny it looked and probably just wrote a script off that.Derek Thompson is a hockey player nicknamed "The Tooth Fairy", for hitting opposing players so hard that he knocks out their teeth. One night, Derek steals a dollar from his girlfriend's daughter Tess that had been left for her lost tooth. Later that night, he receives a summons under his pillow. He magically grows wings and is transported to the realm of tooth fairies. There, he meets his case worker, Tracy, and the head fairy, Lily. Lily tells Derek that he is a "dream crusher", due to his unsympathetic dealings with children. He is then sentenced to serve two weeks as a tooth fairy. Derek visits several children and tries his best to become a good tooth fairy, but ends up ultimately causing more harm than good. Lily states that he is the worst tooth fairy ever and denies him more supplies for the remainder of his sentence. Now in typical family fun filled fashion, a muscle bound man must find his true love for children and realize to be a good fairy and wow, did I really just write that? That sums up the film pretty much.You could say that this was a very family friendly movie and it is, but lately I've been thinking about the way I grew up with film. A couple weeks ago I saw The Goonies on the big screen as a re-release and I grew up with this film, I still love it. It has action, adventure and never insulted it's audience making just a bunch of 10 year old jokes and a bunch of visual gags that just fall flat. I know it's a completely different movie, but I just remember the days where family friendly movies had an edge and were enjoyable for both children and adults, seeing these films as a child and still enjoying them into an older age. Tooth Fairy is just a forgettable film, I would even label it as harmless, but Hollywood is really running out of ideas. The acting is horrible, the CGI effects are lame and the story is just so stupid. I can't believe that this great cast would be suckered into this, no names
Julie Andrews and Billy Crystal! Sorry, just had to get that out. But I would say this movie is a skip and the only thing it wasted was my time, but a tip for Hollywood, just because the picture of a tough guy in a child like situation is funny doesn't mean "Let's make a movie!".2/10
