Review of Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb (2014) by Nahtan1244 — 17 Mar 2016
Definitely the weakest of trilogy but still fun. I loved going to London and seeing all the new exhibits come to life. sir Lancelot was a treat to watch and was probably one of the best character. we also get a fantastically developed back story to the tablet.
This movie takes alot of inspiration for the first. For example back is the party scene at the end we get more of robin Williams as teddy Roosevelt more rexy once again because teddy Roosevelt travels with him to London.
The action once again is fun and Hugh jack man makes a hilarious cameo. dick van dyke comes back after being absent in the first movie for a short but worth while scene which adds some back story to the tablet.
Speaking of which when there were flashbacks to the tablet the ancient Egypt scene were effective and although they were extras no white washing. Micky roony dick van dyke and bill cobs come back briefly but it was good to see them again.
Ricky Jarvais as always does great as Larry daily's sassy boss. What keeps this movie from being great are a couple of things. While not completely gone gone is mostly the smart humor Ben stiller seems more grumpy than in the previous too which I didn't like.
Russel Wilson as the night guard lady was OK but not the best. Also any scene with laa was not done very well. I understand he was the comic relief but he was not very good but I see it was defiantly a character geared more toward kids.
The father son relationship sub plot was completely under developed and didn't add much to the movie.
