Critics Consensus

Parents might call this either a spectacle-filled adventure or a shallow and vapid CG-fest, depending on whether they choose to embrace this on the same level as their kids.

Nell Minow

Movie Mom

It's a better than average CGI-fest, more often silly than funny. But it makes some good points about courage, self-respect, and the importance of learning about history.

Rated: B

With this cast, there should be more laughs, and that blame falls partially on the script, but equally on how awfully Levy paces the film.

Deep Focus Review

This environment could be a CGI wonderland to teach audiences something about history, if only there were fun facts here and there. You’d think coming from a movie that takes place inside a museum the audience might learn a little, but you’d be wrong.

Rated: 2/4

Fifteen years after its release, Night at the Museum is still a fun time.

Thankfully, the special-effects used to simulate the static exhibits coming to life (dinosaurs, statues, warriors etc) are both strong and varied enough to prevent a totally worn-out welcome.

Rated: 2.5/5
