An irresistible concept meets computer-generated wonders in Night at the Museum, inspired by a 1993 children's book by Milan Trenc. Ben Stiller stars as Larry Daley, an underachieving inventor waiting for his ship to come in while getting evicted from one apartment after another for lack of funds. Larry's son needs some stability, so the well-meaning ne'er-do-well takes a job as night watchman at New York City's Museum of Natural History. What the soon-to-retire guards (Dick Van Dyke, Mickey Rooney, Bill Cobbs) don't tell him is that an ancient pharaoh's tablet in the museum causes everything on display to come to life at night. Thus, Larry meets representations of Teddy Roosevelt, Attila the Hun, fire-worshipping cavemen, and Roman Empire soldiers, and learns to cope with an excitable T-Rex and man-eating, ancient animals. The film might have left things at that, but an added story element gives Night at the Museum some extra urgency and excitement, especially for kids: Larry becomes responsible for keeping this nightly miracle going and preventing anything in the museum from dying due to exposure to sunrise. Computer effects, as well as wildly imaginative costumes and makeup, help make the film appeal to the 8-year-old in everyone. Director Shawn Levy (The Pink Panther) works with a hugely talented cast, including Robin Williams, Owen Wilson, Ricky Gervais, Carla Gugino, and Steve Coogan. --Tom Keogh

Description

Ben Stiller leads an all-star cast including Robin Williams and Dick Van Dyke in this hilarious blockbuster hit. When good-hearted dreamer Larry Daley (Stiller) is hired as night watchman at the Museum of Natural History, he soon discovers that an ancient curse brings all the exhibits to life after the sun sets. Suddenly, Larry finds himself face-to-face with a frisky T. rex skeleton, tiny armies of Romans and cowboys and a mischievous monkey who taunts him to the breaking point. But with the help of President Teddy Roosevelt (Williams), Larry may just figure out a way to control the chaos and become a hero in his son's eyes. Boasting jaw-dropping special effects and laugh-out-loud moments, Night at the Museum is your ticket to nonstop fun!

Decent movie for everyone's entertainment.......2007-06-30

This is a good movie for the whole family. It probably won't hold a child 5 and under attention the whole time.

Really Great Movie 4 All Ages !!!.......2007-06-28

This is one of those rare movies that comes up with a really unique idea and than puts it into action wonderfully :) Night at the Museum is really fun and hilarious and seeing the museum stuff come to life is like re-living my childhood when I first visited the museum :)

Great movie - Great Jokes - Good Buy :)

Great for the Whole Family!.......2007-06-28

While I wish our family had been able to see this on the big screen, it's a great DVD to own and it's definitely a winner. Our kids love this film & get plenty of great laughs out of it, but I have to say, I think my husband and I were laughing far more than the kids were - it has some seriously hysterical moments in it!
The story idea is original, the acting is excellent, the CGI is really well done, set design is fantastic, there is indeed a plot (!) and behind it all, there really is a positive message to be had. The comedic capacities of our stars in the film are great. Stiller does a great job with his cast. Micky Roonie has some great moments that leave you cracking up, and honestly, I wish there were more outtakes to be viewed but the additional material is really enjoyable nonetheless.
Enjoy!
