I'd would love too spend the night at that museum
Jane from Hertfordshire England, 29th June, 2007
Absolutely loved it. I give it my 5 F's . Fabulous Fun Filled Family Film It's good to watch something that's light hearted, good special effects and just good fun. Steve Coogans' and Owen Wilsons characters are funny as is the relationship between Ben Stiller and the monkey. I am not going to give anything away. JUST WATCH IT.

Poor man's Jumanji

Ben Stiller stars as a security guard in a museum, who on his first night realises that things are not what they seem. The reviews were good for this film so I decided to sit down with the family have an enjoyable couple of hours. Unfortunately, for me, this was not as good as everyone has said it was. The storyline was pretty basic and not as entertaining as you might have thought. Ben Stiller was wooden throughout and laughs did not come naturally. 3 stars for an ok movie.

Escapism
Peter Atkinson from Stockton, 4th April, 2007
It really annoys me when critics try to analyse movies and then say that they are rubbish. ie. weak plot, bad acting or predictable. Why bother analysing it in the first place. Movies are make believe and if you just let yourself escape into them then they become enjoyable fantasies. This is one of those movies. Typical lightehearted Hollywood fluff. Rent and enjoy. I did.

No museum peace this...
PaulaWestwood from , 28th December, 2006
A real collection of acting talent making an exhibition of themselves in this museum, including evergreen Dick Van Dyke.. who gives a lovely performance and proves he is not ready to be labelled a specimen himself just yet. Make no bones about it, this isn't the funniest, cleverest or most entertaining thing ever. Perhaps it is a good candidate to wait for the DVD version to come out to rent, rather than rushing off to see it on the big screen (mmm mind you there are a few things that might get lost on the smaller screen), that said, it does have a pharoh few laughs and is daft enough to be entertaining. Would definately recommend this as a title to rent.
