That actually sounds a lot like Imagine That. It was a film where Eddie Murphey played a business exec who interpreted his daughter's drawings and imaginary friends and made a bunch of money off of it.
There was a film I watched a while ago with a plot similar to Bedtime Stories. There was a father and an estranged son (who I believe were both black), and the father was competing with a guy who claims to be a Native American. He gets the upper hand by interpreting his son's drawings, whose results actually carry out into real life. Near the end, the Native guy figures it out and hypes his son on Red Bull to level the playing field.
Anyone remember this? The actor portraying the "Native American"'s name was Thomas [something].
