Nick's Review: http://gorgview.com/tooth-fairy-2
Plot: Larry, played by Larry the cable guy, loses his girlfriend because he decides to bowl instead of go to a kid's birthday party. However, Larry wins a muscle car, so that's great, right? A year later she is going to marry the mayor and Larry is trying to win back her love. He does so by volunteering at the rec center for kids that she works at. He accidentally tells a kid that the tooth fairy isn't real.
While I'm going to rip this movie apart, this is not to say that this movie is useless. I can totally see how kids would love this movie. This is great if you're making dinner or doing whatever that you can't entertain your kids and you let them watch a movie. Or at a family party while people are eating you can definitely pop this in. There are situations for everything. Also, if you think that cross dressing or southern accents are funny, then this movie is redeemable, but I don't.
This movie just has a very child like view of the world. Which leads to plot holes. Like why does the tooth fairy go and give kids money for teeth but then parents do as well? So is there twice as much money? where do the fairies get the money? what is Larry doing to actually make money to pay for his buckets of chicken? Why is someone in charge of a day care spending time with her fiance while there's tons of kids there? Why are there only the groom's guests at the bridal shower? is being the mayor really that big of a deal?
I couldn't get past that the movie was like "haha a guy is wearing pink." Some good things about this movie is it doesn't really do Larry the cable guy's standard stand up routine. "::fart joke:: that's funny right dere... GIT 'ER DOOOOONE" like he actually has some feelings and emotions and stuff. Granted they're poorly executed but it's a step up from his comedy.
Grade: D+
