The television movie is set in the city of Dimmsdale and centers on the series' main protagonist Timmy Turner with his fairy godparents Cosmo and Wanda and his fairy godbrother Poof. In the movie, Timmy is now 23 years old but is still in fifth grade with his fairy-obsessed fifth grade teacher Mr. Crocker. Despite being grown up, Timmy finds a loophole in the fairy rulebook Da Rules: if he continues to act like a kid, he will still get to keep his fairies. However, the dilemma rises when Tootie, who was once a dorky girl when she was 10 years old, returns to Dimmsdale as an attractive woman. Timmy falls in love with her, a sign that he is growing up to an adult, which means he is closer to losing his fairies. Meanwhile, an oil business tycoon named Hugh J. Magnate, Jr., who teams up with Mr. Crocker, plans to use Timmy's fairies' magic in order to promote his oil business.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Preety cool. 10 stars. I agree this is not the best live-action movie, but if YOU liked the TV series, then YOU still can LOVE this movie. # OH, and yeah, 10 stars. ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** **----------------------- BUT...... Timmy is 23 YEARS OLD, and he still acts like a 10 years old kid. # Sooooo, compared to the TV series, of course it's a huge gap. # And, of course, it wasn't possible to make those carton effects. Regarding the plot, I was pretty surprised. Oh, and those spooky goblins were not as nice as they were supposed to be. And Crocker wasn't hunched at all. But, YOU know, it's a kid movie. Regarding Tootie, Daniela Monet acted very well, and this was OK for the movie.The fairies were animated and it was pretty weird. But hey, we're talking about some cartoon converted to movie Stuff.

This has totally ruined the show. No, you do not take a fun, zany cartoon and make it a live-action movie. I actually stopped watching it after the special when Poof was born. It seemed to just get stupid after that.But then this movie came, and I almost died. I do like Drake Bell, but please, please, PLEASE do NOT throw him in a roll that soiled Timmy Turner. I'm sorry Bell had to play in this train-wreck of a movie.In a cartoon, this whole movie would've been so much better because the script is written as a cartoon. In live-action, you get really cheesy effects and a VERY cheesy plot. Now, I know it was written for younger kids, but come on!A twenty-three year old who has never left the fifth grade and never had a kiss or anything? Granted, he was twenty-three and if he tried to date any of them, he would be a pedophile. But still, he's gone through puberty and all that, and he hasn't even TRIED to hit on a girl?They made it clear in one episode that usually kids' fairy godparents are lost when they hit high school age because, you know, they fall in love and all that junk. Why? Because they are hormone-strung teens. He would've succumbed to the pressures of love. How can a twenty-three year old be friends with kids half his age his whole life?And Tootie. Oh my goodness, she had such a stupid roll. Giving her scenes where she randomly goes Jackie Chan on everyone? I can handle the environmentalist thing, but being a black belt? Come on. Get real.So then Timmy falls for his previous stalker. Cosmo and Wanda, who I loved in the show, are just plain idiots in the movie, ESPECIALLY when they become waiters. As fairy godparents, they should LET GO of their child, not keep trying to keep him, especially when the head hauncho told Timmy to loose them. Then there was Crocker. In the show, it was funny when he would yell "Fairy godparents!" but the effects in this movie were just plain dumb when he did it. His shenanigans were also quite amusing, but this—this was just, well, retarded. Especially when he was able to catch the fairies so easily. This was probably one of his most easiest plans to avoid, but the fairies fell for it right away! So Timmy's falling in love, so their intelligence level drops fifty points?And the ending—oh my goodness, the wishing machine? So stupid. The ball pit that never ended? The effects made me want to puke. I've seen movies from the forties with better effects.So, they get the fairies back and then the fairy leader ((can't remember the name, sorry)) lets Timmy keeps his fairies. Wait, what? He can KEEP his fairies? They made it VERY clear that you can NOT keep your fairies after you grow up! You are supposed to forget about them!Okay, so then I assumed the show was over. But then I saw the commercial after the movie. A whole new week of Fairly Odd-Parents! WHAT? You make a movie about him growing up only to come out with more episodes?I am very confused.At least my kid sister liked it.In conclusion, this movie is a total complete kids movie that seemed to ruin Fairly Odd-Parents.

This is a joke! Absolute bullshit! The acting is pretty bad, I mean what's the point of making a crappy film if you know people are gonna hate it! The cartoon i like but this... no. I'm sorry but this is a joke. And the actors were annoying as hell... especially Cheryle Hines and Jason Alexander as Cosmo and Wanda. And some characters were disturbing and crappy and weren't meant for this utter file that you call a film. When the movie started, I sighed and yawned, and at the ending I wanted to shoot myself. And when Tootie came in I was like, "What the hell happened to Trixie?" And Jorgan was weird... so was a lot of charac-let me refrase that... ALL of the characters sucked! Utter crap. Don't watch it.

WARNING REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS DO NOT READ IF You've Haven't SEEN THIS FILM! i thought this movie was gonna suck boy was i wrong it was basically a fairly oddparents cartoon but in live action it had the music cartoon sound effects and everything. crocker acted like crocker timmy acted like timmy etc. but tootys personality was wrong instead of a timmy obsessed nerd she was a hot tree hugger. the spaz outs of crocker were genius but some of the editing had flaws. but timmys parents were excellent. and the cgi was okay special effects and green screen could've been better but it was still okay. and poofs first words were awesome(he didn't say awesome but his first words were awesome). a great way to look into the future. chester and aj were jerks though i give this film an 8 out of 10 because of its sfx and editing flaws. im the cool critic and i review movies and TV shows that rock and suck.
