Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
The result is pretty much a free-form traffic jam in which everyone fights everyone else.

It's a collection of some of the most interesting figures throughout history and some of the most talented performers we have working today.

This is a family comedy that will entertain the kids and amuse the grown-ups. It's also a rare Hollywood sequel that's better than the original.

Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian, is breezier than the first Museum, at least to me, which means in three years I'll be revising my opinion downward.

Azaria pretty much steals the show.
