An average movie

Why, Dear God, why all the major action movie stars have to make those terribly underwhelming comedies? Only Jason Statham has understood that he has absolutely nothing to gain by showing up in these always underwhelming features. Usually, they give this excuse that they made them so their little cousins/nephews/sons/daughter/dogs can watch them in a movie since they can’t watch their action stuff. That’s a terribly lame reason and no excuse to pick up such terrible projects. Still, guess what? Even though it was terribly weak and sappy, at least, it was not as bad as the awful ‘Tooth Fairy’. I mean, the whole thing is terribly formulaic and predictable, you start with a selfish father but, at the end of the movie, he is a very sweet man, you know the gimmick and the kid switches from really obnoxious to really nice and cute whenever the plot needs it so it remains pretty lame. But, still, I have to admit it, there was something actually genuine in this father-daughter relationship, Dwayne Johnson was actually believable and there were some bits here and there that actually worked. To conclude, even though it was not as bad as it looked, it still remain a rather weak family feature and I don’t think it is really worth a look, even for your kids, there are far better movies to watch with them.
