Night at the Museum 2

Somehow not that good as the first one, numerous dry moments in the movie but there are really funny ones as well. After his adventure in the first instalment, Larry became the head of Daley Devices, inventing "devices" like glow-in-the-dark flash light, Unloseable Keyring, etc. But he found out that the American Museum of History was under renovation and most of the exhibits are going to be send to the Federal Archives.

So he met "them" for the last night though promised he would speak to the board and persuade to let "them" stay. But next day he got a call from Jedadiah, Owen Wilson, the small guy somehow die die can pick up a phone and dial to Larry. He told him that Dexter which is the monkey took the tablet with them, this spelt problem. This woken Pharaoh Kahmunrah, some guy who kept telling he rose from the dead and going to conquer the world.

Larry managed to get into the basement which holds the archives. Not after he have to tcss with some security guard guy, try to keep awake scene. He did find which container they are being locked into, but Kahmunrah saw it and started their "ben stiller" type of crap meaningless conversation, this one no good. Larry manage to escape with the help of General George Armstrong but himself got captured. Larry met Ameila Earhart and joined him as she is thrilled in hearing this adventure. As they try to escape from Kahmunrah's men, Kahmunrah managed to get help from Al Capone, Ivan the Terrible and Napolean.

While General George is coming up with his great plan "shout attack then really attack", Jedadiah and Octavius sneeked out to help Larry but Jeddadiah got caught and was put into a hourglass. Napolean's men caught up with Larry and Amelia, not after another try to be funny dialogue. Kahmunrah took the tablet but couldnt activate the gate, thus threathens Larry to find the right combination on the tablet if not he will kill Jeddadiah.

Larry got the answer from a group of Albert Einstein Bobblehead. Amelia flew Larry back to the American Museum of History to seek help, which only the Lincoln statue is there, after some tcss they went back. Kahmunrah found out the new code and managed to revive back an army of birdmen but then Lincoln statue charged into the window causing the birdmen to flee back into the gate.


As the rest start to battle it out, Octavius saved Jeddadiah and they started piercing all the shoes of Kahmunrah's men, this scene quite interesting. Then Larry duel Kahmunrah one on one and defeated him with his trusty nightguard flashlight and thrown him back into the gate. 6/10
