"Tooth Fairy" was released in 2010 as a family comedy starring Dwayne Johnson as Derek Thompson, a tough minor-league hockey player who is magically sentenced to serve as a real-life tooth fairy. Upon release, the film received mixed reviews from critics, who praised Johnson's charisma but criticized the predictable plot and humor aimed at younger audiences. While it performed modestly at the box office, it didn't make a significant impact critically or commercially. Over time, however, "Tooth Fairy" has gained a modest following among fans of lighthearted family films and those who enjoy Johnson's early comedic roles. It is not widely regarded as a cult classic or an underrated gem, but rather as a dated relic of early 2010s family comedies that retains nostalgic charm for some viewers, especially children who grew up watching it.
