In New York, the unemployed divorced Larry Daley (Ben Stiller) is a complete loser. His son Nick (Jake Cherry) is very disappointed with his father that is gong to be evicted, and Larry accepts the job of night watchman in the Museum of Natural History as the substituted for three old security guards that have just retired to raise some money and pay his bills. In his first nightshift, Larry realizes that everything at the museum comes to life at night. The Museum transforms in a complete chaos with the inexperienced Larry, and he learns that since an old Egyptian stone came to the Museum in 1950, the wax statues come to life until dawn. When Larry brings his son to spend a night with him, the three old guards break in the Museum to steal the magic stone. Larry organizes the historic characters to help him to arrest the criminals and save the museum.
"Night at the Museum" is a delightful adventure, with an original story, great special effects and funny situations. Ben Stiller, as usual, is hilarious in the role of a father that is a complete loser and competing with a successful stepfather and has the chance of his lifetime. Together with Robin Williams, Patrick Gallagher, Steve Coogan and Owen Wilson, they are responsible for an excellent family entertainment. The T-Rex chasing his bone as a little dog is stunning and one of the funniest jokes ever. My vote is seven.
