Overwiew :Ben Stiller returns to the role of night watchman Larry Daly in this sequel to the 2006 family film NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM. This adventure takes the action to Washington D.C, where things at the Smithsonian aren't quite as quiet as one might think... |

This movie was a really funny and great movie to watch. Ben Stiller, Amy Adams and Hank Azaria were great. I loved the humor and feeling as if I were there myself. A decent movie with pretty good special effects. | | | | Reply | | |      good_natured says @ Saturday - May 30,2009
The first movie was fresh, entertaining and funny. This sequel just didn't measure up to the first movie. The movie lacked a storyline and decent direction. | | | | Reply | | |      dmdickin says @ Saturday - May 30,2009
I saw the movie. The story was almost perfect. The acting was outstanding. The direction was fair. The visuals were good. Overall the movie was outstanding. | | | | Reply | | |      Olga_Bitter says @ Saturday - May 30,2009
I found this movie genuinely funny and interesting. The special affects were well done. I actually enjoyed this sequel more than the original. Good chemistry between Ben Stiller, Amy Adams and Hank Azaria made the movie entertaining. | | | | Reply | | |      natalie_wallace says @ Saturday - May 30,2009
This was good family movie, but not as good as first one. The old fans of the first movie may be little disappointed. Something was missing in the movie. I think, the director was focused too much on the special effects and forgot all about everything else. | | | | Reply | | |      Lucky_Hamm says @ Tuesday - May 26,2009
The movie was good, but the jokes were not really meant for the matured adults, they were more for the kids. The visuals were great. | | | | Reply | | |      olivier.art says @ Tuesday - May 26,2009
A great family movie. I loved it. The story was as good as the first movie and it introduced new characters also. | | | | Reply | | |      katiefw says @ Tuesday - May 26,2009
This was a good nonstop action and thriller. But this was not as good as first movie. The acting was actually pretty good, but the story wasn't very good. | | | | Reply | | |
