Night at the Museum 2: Battle of the Smithsonian has a few laughs here and there, but never anything substantial to make this a worthwhile family film. Even if the first wasn't perfect, it was a fun and highly entertaining film worth seeing.
I really was disappointed with this film, but I much preferred the original. The jokes here are bland and there is never anything interesting to really make this film worth your time. This on the other hand is a tiresome, uninspired film that wastes its potential. Although the original was never anything great, or highly memorable, it was a fun film to enjoy with the family. This is a mediocre sequel, one that should have been much better than what we got. That is mostly the case with sequels, they try to amp up the stakes, and in turn, they fail to capture what was truly engaging from the original.
Although the first was never anything great, I found it quite amusing in some areas, but in others the film fell apart. Sequel to Night of the Museum is a mediocre attempt at capturing the essence of the original.
