Blue-Ray hd movie review of Night Ath The Museum

This movie was little disappointing for me. I knew it was a family friendly movie. But, I didn't find it all that enjoyable. There were some funny moments in the movie. It had great premise but I don't quite see Ben Stiller as a family movie type of actor. Maybe I keep flashing back to those funny scenes in There's Something about Mary. Anyone expecting crude humor and jokes should look else where for their fix.

The movie is about a museum that comes to life due to a powerful spell from an Egyptian tablet. Ben Stiller plays Larry Daley, who is an lovable loser type of character perfected by Ben Stiller. He is a divorced father who is about to be evicted from an apartment. To keep his apartment and his son's respect, he accepts a security job at the museum. Obviously the museum's "condition" leads to some entertaining situations. Everything from animals to miniature human beings come alive and wreck havoc in the museum. There obligatory "bad" guys and Larry Daley's eventual triumph. It's reall predictable.

There are great stretches of film that drags on and feel incredibly slow. The second half picks up the pace with it's action sequences. The second half is great fun with all the things in the museum coming to life. However, Ben Stiller isn't the family movie type and he is fairly bland when he is not allowed to do some crude humor. It's fine for little kids and the parents that need to accompany them. Other than that, it is fairly forgettable movie.
