night at the museum secrets of the lost tomb

Ultimately it feels like one 'night' too many, with a tired plot and a bored cast who are largely going through the motions.

Although Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb is intended to be a send-off for the franchise, you get the feeling this is less out of artistic intent and more due to falling box office. There's also a running gag about a Neanderthal exhibit that has been deliberately made to look like Larry, allowing Ben Stiller to have fun as two different characters. Escher being quite fun and there's an amusing cameo from Hugh Jackman as himself. There are moments of inspiration, with a scene set inside a drawing by M. A security guard at the museum, Larry Daly, has settled into his role as caretaker of the museum's magical inhabitants, but he's about to face his biggest challenge yet as he and his friends discover that the mysterious source that brings them to life is fading. It's unfortunate for many reasons but mostly because Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb was the last completed film for both Robin Williams and Mickey Rooney - the film is dedicated to them at the end.

Needless to say no British cliche is left untouched and when the gang arrive in London to the strains of London Calling by The Clash, you know originality is not high up the list of priorities. They also add the annoying Rebel Wilson, playing a security guard at the British Museum, to the mix causing us to wonder why she keeps getting work. Unfortunately, there's little of historical interest in the film and instead the filmmakers add fictional characters like Sir Lancelot (Dan Stevens) to the cast with mixed results. Marie Benedict, the beloved New York Times bestselling author of The Only Woman in the Room, uncovers the untold story of Agatha Christies mysterious eleven. There's also a sense that the franchise has lost one of its most endearing aspects, the idea of getting children interested in history. Sadly the plot somewhat mirrors reality, as the franchise itself has rather lost its magic and what once felt vibrant and original now feels tired and uninspired. In an attempt the find a way to save the exhibits, Larry Daley (Ben Stiller) travels to the British Museum in London to find Ahkmenrah's parents and hopefully find a way to stop the tablet losing its magic. THE third chapter of the blockbusting Night At The Museum franchise has lost two of its greatest special effects Mickey Rooney and Robin Williams in the. Larry spans the globe, uniting favorite and new characters while embarking on an epic quest to save the magic before it is gone forever. In Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb we discover that it's the tablet of Ahkmenrah that is causing the exhibits to come to life but this power is in danger of being lost.
