![]() ![]() The boy is a normal kid who doesn't have interest in anything other than music and girls. I really liked the scene where Derek imitates Dracula for the little girl, there are lots of sweet moments. Dwayne Johnson is believable as the jerk (somewhat sensitive, but still a jerk) and the transformed good hearted man. The movie, as with all kid movies, has the moral that one should dream and not get dragged down by others who tell you that you are no good. The kids, though cute, are not exactly over the top sweet. Though the premise of this movie about a man getting the job of a fairy is also unreal, it is actually quite good. Hollywood is obsessed in making movies for kids which are way too sweet and saccharine and totally unreal. What were you expecting when you sat down to see this movie? Citizen Kane?! Just enjoy the movie for what it is and stop grumbling about the inconsistencies of the movie. When Derek finds out it wasn't a dream, his life changes drastically.

That may sound boring and tiring, but Dwayne Johnson is genuinely funny in comedic moments and moves our heart in sad situations. One constant thing about his movies is that he is a jerk in the beginning, who goes on to be a good guy in the end. He carries the movie on his able shoulders with some help from other good actors. He is not embarrassed to make a fool out of himself and I think he really likes children. He truly convinces us that he is not the bad-ass he was made out to be during his wrestling career and he is so genuinely charming. I didn't think he would last long, but this guy has made it big in PG movies. ![]() Nobody was more surprised than me when he started to do only Disney kind of films.
