The comedy film is a sequel to the adventure film Night at the Museum (2006). Directed by Shawn Levy, the film received moderate success at the box office. Despite its novelty, the script seems familiar and is a mix of interesting old and new stuffs. The film has a clever mix of funny magic for the younger audience and clever verbal humor for the older kids and their parents.

The family is a warm comedy and a thrilling family entertainer. Ben Stiller has brilliantly played the lead in this comic venture. The story is fictional where the displays in the museum come to life at night and a struggle erupts between the good and the bad ones. The museum pieces of Natural History are moved to the federal storage at the Washington Museums due to the renovations in the former. The Smithsonian institution is brought to life which houses the largest number of items in its collections.

The comedy in the film has been designed well and performed better by Mr. Stiller. The scene where Mr. Stiller gets slapped by a couple of monkeys is one of the most hilarious scenes. Another hilarious scene of the film is the one about the confusion and hustle bustle between Mr. Stiller and Jonah Hill.

Enormous small and huge artworks have been used in the film which spring up to life at night. The giant marble Abraham Lincoln is something to be watched for along with several classic paintings, sculptures and photographs. The minor cameos in the film add a lot of fun element to the movie. The kids would love the film and laugh at all the funny and not so funny jokes. The additional feature is that it includes history. So overall, it is a moderately enjoyable film.
