Starring: Ashley Judd, Dwayne Johnson, Julie Andrews

Summary: Derek Thompson is a hard-charging hockey player whose nickname comes from his habit of separating opposing players from their bicuspids. When Derek discourages a youngster's dreams, he's sentenced to one week's hard labor as a real tooth fairy, complete with the requisite tutu, wings and magic wand. At first, Derek "can't handle the tooth"Derek Thompson is a hard-charging hockey player whose nickname comes from his habit of separating opposing players from their bicuspids. When Derek discourages a youngster's dreams, he's sentenced to one week's hard labor as a real tooth fairy, complete with the requisite tutu, wings and magic wand. At first, Derek "can't handle the tooth" - bumbling and stumbling as he tries to furtively wing his way through strangers' homes...doing what tooth fairies do. But as Derek slowly adapts to his new position, he begins to rediscover his own forgotten dreams. (20th Century Fox)… Expand

Lael Loewenstein

Scores a goal for kids and adults alike. Read full review

Missy Schwartz

British comic Stephen Merchant (Extras), exudes an easier charm as a goofy fairyland caseworker who harbors big dreams of his own. Read full review

Roger Ebert

There's no way I can recommend this movie to anyone much beyond the Tooth Fairy Believement Age, but I must testify it's pleasant and inoffensive, although the violence in the hockey games seems out of place. Read full review

Boxoffice Magazine Pete Hammond

Strictly for 6 year olds, this uninspired, one-joke comedy is full of too many misfired gags and weak comic setups to cross over to anyone whose head reaches above the seat back. Read full review

Michael Phillips

The poster’s the funniest thing about the project: Johnson, sporting a pair of fairy wings larger than his forearms, glaring at the camera. Read full review

Josh Levin

In the hierarchy of things that creep into your house, the tooth fairy ranks somewhere beneath Santa Claus and above the Formosan termite. Read full review

Scott Tobias

The only apparent reason Tooth Fairy exists at all is to squeeze tough-guy ex-wrestler Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson into tights and a tutu. As comic ideas go, that doesn't stretch much further than the poster. Read full review

Tooth fairy has some cleaver diologe but it doesnt make up for the ending that a 5 year old could figure out. Tooth fairy is strictly a rental and many people over 14 really wont like this movie.

Just another movie for kids. Weak, weak, weak... The Rock does not have a good perfomance, just Stephen Merchant (who a admire deeply) did a acceptable performance.

The Tooth Fairy is a painful mess. The story is unimaginative and has a few plot holes. Dwayne Johnson didn't provide a good performance, which hurt it even more.
