Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian (Single-Disc Edition)
- Recommended Age: 6 years and up
History is larger than life—and twice as funny—in this monumental comedy sequel that’s “better than the original” (At the Movies)! Ben Stiller leads an all-star cast (including Amy Adams, Owen Wilson, Hank Azaria and Robin Williams) as Larry Daley, a former night watchman at the Museum of Natural History, where the exhibits come to life after dark. But now Larry’s nocturnal friends are being retired to the archives of the Smithsonian Institution, luring him back for a hilarious, all-

Even Better than the First!,
My wife and I enjoyed the original “Night at the Museum” we expected to the sequel to be typical of seconds… not quite as good. However, “Battle of the Smithsonian” bucks this trend – and in our opinion it is significantly better than the original. The plot is a bit silly – our favorite night-watchman had made it big as inventor of useless products. His new position as CEO means that he is no longer working at the museum. The museum has also undergone a few changes – namely most of the exhibits are being shipped into storage. The storage is below the Smithsonian… and that is where the action begins!
“Battle of the Museum” blends, action, humor and a numerous celebrity cameos into a fun-filled flick. The story introduces us to some Egyptian pharaoh (can’t remember which one), Ivan the Terrible, Napoleon, Amelia Earhart , Abe Licoln, and miniature Einstein bobbleheads! The star of the story is the incredibly imaginative action sequences… the jumping in-and-out pictures, the banter of Abe Lincoln…. all of it light-hearted and very entertaining.
As far as the acting – Ben Stiller was …. Ben Stiller – you either love him or you hate him. We really did enjoy Amy Adams as Amelia Earhart – she seems to have nailed the accent, look and walk – plus she was very funny!
Final Verdict – Recommended for everyone (This is a very kid friendly movie) but it highly recommended for everyone who enjoyed the original.

|Not the movie,
Stop putting the previews of movies as free downloads. It’s silly, I’m not going to waste my time downloading a movie preview. I thought it was the actual movie, for free.

|Cute And Fun – Perfect Family Entertainment,
My 12 year old daughter and I really enjoyed watching NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM 2: BATTLE OF THE SMITHSONIAN together. Like the original, NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM 2 is great family entertainment – no bad language, no blood, no sex, and no real violence. Just lots of fun, laughter, and a pleasant evening together.
In NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM 2, night guard Larry Daley has moved on and is getting rich selling his wacky inventions on television infomercials. But his heart isn’t really in it; he isn’t as happy as he thought would be. When Larry discovers that many of his beloved friends from the exhibits at the New York City Museum of Natural History are being shipped to permanent storage at the Smithsonian archives, he rushes to try to help them. But when the Egyptian tablet that brings his friends to life is accidentally sent along to the Smithsonian, Larry has a whole new set of problems on his hands. With every exhibit in the Smithsonian museums and the archives below coming to life, Larry must enlist the aid of a spunky Amelia Earhart, a vain and grandiose General George Custer, and a bouncy pack of Einstein bobble-heads to save the day, and make everything right.
In NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM 2 is a laugh out loud funny movie, full of some very creative action sequences. The museum exhibits still come to life, but this time they include famous paintings that you can jump into (reminiscent of Mary Poppins), pop art sculptures that chase you around, all manner of aircraft (from the Wright Brothers’ first plane to a launching Apollo space craft), the gifts from the gift shop, and even a gigantic Abraham Lincoln from the Lincoln Memorial. Hank Azaria as the evil pharaoh and Amy Adams as a perky, independent Amelia Earhart are delightful additions to the NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM 2 cast, and Robin Williams is as charming as always Teddy Roosevelt. The special effects are pretty cool, and the jokes and slapstick keep on coming.
Is the story predictable? Yes. Did we care? No! NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM 2: BATTLE OF THE SMITHSONIAN is a great family summer film. It won’t change your life, but it will help you forget your troubles for a few hours and have some fun with your loved ones. The entire family will grin, giggle, and out-right guffaw, with several good, old fashioned belly-laughs thrown in. NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM 2: BATTLE OF THE SMITHSONIAN is an excellent way to spend a cozy popcorn evening together. And who knows, your kids might even learn a little history!
