Review:
What a waste of film! There is so much that the filmmakers of Night at the Museum could have done at the Smithsonian, yet instead they focus on an inept Egyptian pharaoh (who provides the only comic relief in the film), an overdose of crude PG-rated humor and a romance between Stiller's character and Amelia Earheart. The plot of the movie is chaotic and hard to distinguish from the slapstick and in-your-face one-liners. This sequel is severely lacking in humor and plot. Skip it.

For Parents:
Mild language and crude humor

My Rating:
*
