Night at the Museum 2: Battle of the Smithsonian, the sequel starts 2 years after the original and former night guard of the New York, Museum of Natural History, Larry Daley (Stiller) has gone from a night guard at the Museum of Natural History to a wealthy inventor who's selling his products on infomercials. Even though Larry is now a millionaire, he still visits the Museum of Natural History, reluctant to let his friends go. When he visits one night, he finds all of the exhibits being boxed in preparation for shipping to their new home, to make way for new holographic exhibits. Dr. McPhee (Ricky Gervais) almost proudly announces that all of the dusty exhibits are being shipped off to the Federal Archives below the Smithsonian in Washington D.C. That night, as Larry is visiting with his son, he gets a call from Jedediah (Owen Wilson). The monkey grabbed the Egyptian Tablet and now the entire Smithsonian is running amok and Kahmunrah (Hank Azaria), an Egyptian King, is trying to get the tablet to open an Egyptian Gate to the Underworld.
Larry speeds down to DC and quickly outwits a Smithsonian guard (Jonah Hill) gaining access to the archives. When the exhibits wake up, Kahmunrah recruits Napoleon and Al Capone, and their respective armies, to retrieve the tablet for him. Larry meets Amelia Earhart (Amy Adams) and General Custer (Bill Hader) who help him battle the evil King.
The first Night at the Museum movie was a film I really enjoyed as, for a film that would primarily be aimed at attracting a young audience, it contained some marvelous humor coupled with stunning CGI effects. Overall, Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian" isn't all that bad but sure likely, it's perfect enough for a family outing.
