I thought that Night at the Museum was a fairly entertaining film. There were some parts in the film that dragged along, but overall, this flick is one that the entire family can enjoy. The story was straight forward and the plot was lightweight, but the fact that all the wax figures and dinosaur bones came to life make it a worthwhile movie for any youngster to watch.

There were quite a few holes in the script, and I thought that they under utilized the incredible talents of Robin Williams, but otherwise the production was good. The CGI work was very fluid and the acting was sufficient to make this a great family film.

I would definitely pick this one up if you have youngsters and I think that most people will enjoy it as a afternoon movie rental.

Synopsis:

When Larry Daley, a divorced father who can’t seem to keep a job for more than a week, applies for a job at the Museum of Natural History, he is assigned as a night guard. However, a seemingly easy job turns out to be a wild ride when he finds that an ancient curse has caused the “inhabitants” of the museum to come to life.
