The Odd Life of Timothy Green (2012)

 
A childless couple bury a box in their backyard, containing all of their wishes for an infant, and soon, a child is born, though Timothy Green is not all that he appears.
 
Sappy fairy-tale-like story is nicely done, but without focus, and the nannying parents are a bit unnerving.

Maltin**: "Well-intentioned fable from the Disney studio is played with conviction by the leading actors, but every time the film shifts focus to a supporting character or subplot it sputters. Too bad."
