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.

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.
I was ecstatic to find out Nickelodeon created a live-action Fairly Odd Parents movie. And was pleased by the ending because it didn't leave any strings unattached. But it was missing a lot, too. I can't be the only one who was expecting Crimson Chin and even hoping for Chip Skylark to make an appearance (especially considering the town goat was in it!). Also I think Doug Dimadome would have been perfect for the antagonist. I grew up watching this show, but I haven't watched it in years until this movie just to know how it ends. Ending was good, but I'd like to see more characters.
I grew up watching the cartoon show and was expecting a live-action movie released in theaters, but instead it was released on TV and boy was I excited and I saw it last night when it premiered. I know it wasn't Toy Story 3, but it had the same message about growing up. Here's my opinion. The storyline had a few problems and the dialogue was kind of pathetic, but the moments in this movie were actually faithful since they had the same actors from the TV show (except Tara Strong for obvious reasons) and it was great to see the live-action Timmy and the rest of the characters. The acting was solid, the music was a lot of fun, and the action scenes were very good.A Fairly Odd Movie: Grow Up Timmy Turner isn't my favorite TV movie, but it is a very good one and it's definitely worth seeing.7/10
This movie is so bad that it left me speechless when it was over. All I keep asking myself was WHY WHY WHY? Some films are so bad that all you can do is laugh. "A Fairly Odd Movie" is not one of them. I just stared in utter horror the entire way through. Everything about this movie was wrong: making it live action, Timmy's casting, the script...everything. How they got Jason Alexander to sign on I'll never know.Most of all, this heaping pile of poop is a disgrace to "The Fairly Odd Parents"."A Fairly Odd Movie" was just so unnecessary. The moron who green-lighted it needs to be fired. Nickelodeon should be ashamed.
