The Tooth Fairy

Dwayne Johnson dresses to impress in "The Tooth Fairy."

Starring: Dwayne Johnson, Ashley Judd, Julie Andrews
Directed by: Michael Lembeck (“The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause”)
Written by: Lowell Ganz (“Fever Pitch”), Babaloo Mandel (“Fever Pitch”), Joshua Sternin (“Surviving Christmas”), Jeffrey Ventimilia (“Surviving Christmas”), Randi Mayem Singer (“Mrs. Doubtfire”)

There was a time when Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson first retired from his wrestling career when it was possible to see the former grappler become a big action star. With roles in kid-friendly puff pieces like “The Tooth Fairy,” however, someone should really try and talk the muscle-head actor into climbing back into the ring before it’s too late. In this script-by-committee attempt here, Johnson is following the movie career of another wrestler-turned-actor, Hulk Hogan. Hogan is an icon in the squared circle, but there’s only so far one can go with “Santa with Muscles” on your resume. Take note, Rock.
