Synopsis:
When the Museum of Natural History’s exhibits are sent to the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C., Larry (Stiller) has to deal with even more historical figures coming to life in this sequel to Night At The Museum (2006).
Our Thoughts:
Night At The Museum (2006) was a hilarious film, and after it’s success (it debuted at #1 – then topped it’s sales the next week), it’s inevitable that they were going to come out with a sequel. That day is coming in 2009, so prepare yourselves for Night At The Museum: Battle Of The Smithsonian.
Half the fun of the first film, however, was watching Stiller’s character deal with the inhabitants of the museum while he refused to believe the exhibits were actually coming to life. Now that he’s got that experience under his belt, chances are he’s going to be a bit more jaded when exhibits start moving around again.
Still, with Stiller backed up by a tremendous supporting cast that now includes Hank Azaria and Amy Adams along with old friends Robin Williams, Owen Wilson, Ricky Gervais and Dick Van Dyke, chances are this one could still be worth the price of admission.
And with Ben Stiller hopefully flying high after the success of Tropic Thunder (2008) and Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa (2008), we could be seeing the dawn of a new Stiller era – one where he doesn’t force the jokes as much – an era that will hopefully make films like Night At The Museum (2006) and Zoolander seem more like his very funny norm rather than the hilarious exceptions they are now.
Night At The Museum: Battle Of The Smithsonian is one sequel – at least on paper -that’s shaping up to be just as good as the original – let’s hope it stays that way when it makes it’s way to the big screen May 22, 2009.
