Light fluffy entertainment. Nothing wrong with that but nothing really in the movie to make it anything. I think the movie was exactly what it needed to be. Light fluffy entertainment.

The back story was intriquing with Dick Van Dyke and Mickey Rooney (!) playing the retiring night watchmen. When the displays came to life it was slapstick comedy back in fine form. When some escaped the musieum, it was hilarious. Certainly it was best if you were seeing this with a youngster, admitedly. But this repeat has definitely lost the edge of originality. What it offers is bigger and more, not a well thought out idea for a sequel. The problem with slapstick like this is that is walks a fine line surrounded by stupidity and chaos. This one sounds like it fell off the line. What the original movie had was…originality. The back story was intriquing with Dick Van Dyke and Mickey Rooney (!) playing the retiring night watchmen.

It annoyed the hell out of me (especially that f***in' monkey). As much as I love Amy Adams - and I love her a lot -, I won't be seeing this one. And hey, now there are two monkeys!!

The good (I better start with it first): - Amy Adams (so funny and so comical, somehow I love it!!!) - Jonas Brothers as Cupid trio or the immitation of them as I recall (singing love songs, Titanic theme song, hillarious!!!) THAT`s IT!!!! The bad (oh i can go on and on): - As much as they all hated the first one (critic), I loved it..... but this movie is unecessary - I felt like dragged as I watched the entire film, feel sooooo long........ (boring) - Ben Stiller gives no more symphaty for me (as Larry Daley) compared to the first one - A lot of unecessary character, stereotype!!!! And on... and on..... Just watch the movie, but don`t hope too high for this one.... Regards from Indonesia.... Buddy I literally falling asleep during this film….

Pretty much anyone over the age of 10 saw that movie and said "it was ok, could've been worse", but no one was ever really clamoring for a sequel. This'll do fine box-office wise (until it gets decimated by "Up" next week) but 8 months from now no one will remember this film. The first movie wasn't all that bad…just completely unmemorable.
