The Tooth Fairy

I’ve been a bit slack with this one… I saw The Tooth Fairy maybe two weeks ago.

I don’t know, I was kind of expecting The Tooth Fairy to be incredibly awful, you know, like one of those Disney-type G-rated movies the teachers get you to watch at primary school when it’s the day before the holidays and they’re sick of teaching. The movies everybody cringes at and talks over the top of. And I guess it was a bit like that. It had the same kind of message as those movies – dreams are good, you can do exactly what you want in life, everybody can be somebody, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera. Not that they’re bad messages, just a little cliche. But The Tooth Fairy was… different.

It was funnier than most of those films. Like, it had that geeky guy from the English The Office who’s also in Pirates of the Caribbean - you know, the wooden eyeball guy – and he was quite hilarious. There was one bit where he and the main character were discussing Facebook, and if they could ‘poke’ one-another, and it was so funny.

And the acting wasn’t fantastic, like in those school-movies, but it did have some great actors, like Julie Andrews. I have no idea how they managed to get her to do this movie.

And all in all, even though it was a little predictable, and a little cliche, The Tooth Fairy was lots and lots of fun to see. 3/5.

Short review today, guys. Sorry!
