I've always had a soft spot for Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. The guy is a charmer on screen, and I couldn't imagine a better role for the once-wrestler than being a Tooth Fairy.
Tooth Fairy Trailer
Dwayne Johnson is "The Tooth Fairy," also known as Derek Thompson, a hard-charging minor league hockey player whose nickname comes from his habit of separating opposing players from their bicuspids. When Derek discourages a youngster's hopes, 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.
Judging by the trailer for Tooth Fairy, the film definitely carries a lot of the charm, should be great for kids, but we'll see how well it plays out for adults.
