Night at the Museum 2

As promised, I brought the girls to watch "Night at the Museum 2". The girls enjoyed the 1st one so I thought they would like the 2nd one too.

The main characters in the first movie are back such as Larry Daley, Teddy Roosevelt, Jedediah, Octavius plus a few more new interesting characters such as Kahmunrah, Ivan the Terrible, Al Capone, Napoleon, Amelia Earhart, General Custer, etc. Like the first movie, The Smithsonian Institution at Washington DC, where the exhibits from the American Museum of Natural History were shipped to, comes to life at night because of the Tablet of Ahkmenrah. Funny antics result as Daley went to Washington to try to rescue his friends.

I enjoyed the movie, maybe more than the girls for the laughs it provided. The baddie, Kahmunrah is pretty funny. There were quite a few hilarious moments. I enjoyed the moment where Kahmunrah was deciding if Darth Vader and Oscar the Grouch were evil enough to join his team. My favourite moment was where Jedediah and Octavius, each with a sword in hand, did a 300. That had me laughing real hard. The camera zoomed in on Jedediah and Octavius who did a fight scene together in slo-mo just like in 300, slashing, piercing, hacking at the feet of the baddies. The next scene you see are the baddies hopping on one foot each and going "Ouch! Ouch!". Hahaha.

Night at the Museum 2 is an enjoyable movie, good for laughs, suitable for the family. :)
