Phipp Award: 2 (See the Cheap Matinee)
Phipps:
I saw this movie because The Rock usually makes decent movies. They aren’t wonderful, but they are fun and light on crude. I also saw this movie because of Julie Andrews – she’s a legend. That being said, this was on the low end of good movies. It was a formula movie, but I was okay with the recycled storyline because it was a cute idea. The Rock in tights…strange and hilarious…and I have to say…he kind of rocked them. The wings were kind of lame looking – too papery. I get that fairy wings are different from bird wings, but come on, people! There was nothing cool about them – they didn’t move at all...a glorified Halloween costume. Everything in this movie seemed a little hollow. Performances weren’t solid. Overall, it could have been better.
Phipps overall: 2
Something was missing.
