Anche i dentisti vanno in paradiso

This film is really uplifting and a great kids film. The little tune that the tooth fairy sings sticks in your head for ours after you watch it. Dah Dah, Dah da da da, Dah Dah. She has been sent to limbo to be the tooth fairy and in the usual Kirsty Allie Style, adds zest and humor to the job. I give it 8/10 generally and for a kids film, 9.5/10. Go rent it now!!!

Catherine (Kirstie Alley) was born to follow in her dentist-father's footsteps. She does become a dentist and establishes a successful practice. However, she only has a few close friends and does not pursue the men who might glance her way. Catherine is more likely to spend an evening watching videos and eating popcorn than on a date. One day, she becomes the victim in a serious auto accident and ends up "in limbo", that is in a halfway station between heaven and hell! She is given the job of Tooth Fairy in order for heaven's authorities to make a further determination about which direction she should go. As Tooth Fairy, she not only learns to do a good job but also begins to realize what she missed out on in life. What will be her final destination? This is a darling family film. Alley is one fine comic performer and a lovely one at that. She looks beautiful in her fairy outfit and dances her way through the heavens to find her young charges. The plot is fun and the supporting actors, especially child-actor Ross M., are very fine. If you want to sit your family down to a film that will entertain both children and adults, in grand fashion, this is an outstanding choice. It has humor and good messages, with bite, that will put every viewer in a good, good mood indefinitely.

This movie was a great show of Kristy ally's personality. I loved how she played her character. OK so i might let a bit of the story out in this, but i feel that if you want to see it badly enough the bits i give out will just inspire you to view the movie. It is a great Comedy as well as a movie that pulls at the heart strings. It shows how a woman has to come to grips with things she has put aside because of her career and realizes that love is possible. Through the multiple children and the parents she interacts with it shows her the lesson she was meant to learn. I think it was a great movie. I highly recommend this to mothers and daughters to watch, together.

This movie is really not one of the greatest movies around...but it can really grab a hold of ya, has a wonderful lesson that WE ALL can learn from, is very funny...yet at the same time there are some serious moments.

Its enough to bring out anyones inner child! One minute I was laughing hysterically...the next a tear ran down my cheek.

It has a mix of emotions! Ill put it this way...it will have you thinking afterwords.

Language for this movie is pretty good. I would say kids of all ages can watch this movie.

It shouldn't. The plot has huge gaping holes in it. The special effects are definitely substandard. Most of the characters border on caricature. But somehow the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

A dentist (Kirstie Alley) who has never really gotten involved with life dies and goes, not to heaven, but Limbo and there, while awaiting judgment, must perform community service. She inadvertently signs up to be the Tooth Fairy and, oh, what a grumpy fairy she is! However, during her time as the Tooth Fairy she develops a relationship with a young boy mourning the loss of his mother and finds, to her surprise, a capacity to love and sacrifice that she didn't know she had.

Ms. Alley carries the film with her exuberant and funny performance tinged with a bit of sadness that comes through in a few crucial scenes. However, most of it is just wacky fun. Her scene where she chews out the Easter Bunny is a hoot and I laugh out loud every time I watch her histrionics during her judgment.

Don't expect a great film but rather an enjoyable one. (After all some of the "great" films aren't really that much fun to watch)
