Good movie but grossly overrated

This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

It will be hard to imagine a fourth Night At The Museum film without Robin Williams playing Teddy Roosevelt so I'm betting this film will end the series with a trilogy. Still who knows where Ben Stiller will be going next.In this one Stiller learns that the ancient Egyptian tablet that's causing the exhibits to come to life is running out of juice, it needs exposure to the moonlight every so often for a recharge. The secret is at the British Museum so Stiller and a select crew from the past two stories accompany him and son Skyler Gisondo.Hero of the first Night At The Museum Rami Malek gets to meet the exhibit of his father Ben Kingsley the ancient pharoah who created the tablet. Our crew also has to deal with a rogue Sir Lancelot exhibit who thinks the tablet is the Holy Grail played by Dan Stevens.The good family entertainment standard is kept up in Secret Of The Tomb. Best scene was Stevens with Stiller and the gang chasing him interrupting a revival of Camelot on Drury Lane with Hugh Jackman as Arthur as Stevens makes his report to his liege.I kind of hope there's another one, but who could replace Robin Williams?

Larry spans the globe, uniting favorite and new characters while embarking on an epic quest to save the magic before it is gone forever. Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb wraps up the storyline in a hilarious, full of adventure and dramatic 3rd chapter that not only it's the best of the 3 movies but it also has some exciting scenes like the fight sequence inside the painting, Hugh Jackman's amazing cameo and above all? A sweet fair well to the late Robin Williams who will always be remembered. (10/10)

This was a good way to end the trilogy. It wasn't over complicated and I liked that the story and the problem in this one was a very simple one. I liked the addition of Sir Lancelot (Dan Stevens did a really great job and looked pretty awesome in the role) The addition of Laa was very funny and one of the highlights of the movie for me. Also it was nice seeing Ben Kingsley in this movie. That was another highlight of the movie. the only problem I had is that we didn't get to see much of the new museum and we didn't get to see too many of their exhibitions coming to life, I was hoping they gave us more background characters coming to life. the museum felt kinda empty and we only get to see a couple of rooms here and there so I don't know if things were cut in the editing room or what happened, but they could have done a lot more in terms of things coming to life. Kinda weird that the building felt so empty at times. I liked it a lot more than the second one and the jokes were a little better.

Part 3 - and expected last instalment - of the poplar NATM series pitches Larry Daley (Ben Stiller) on a mission to save the magic stone that brings his exhibit friends to life. So off he goes to London where new characters and new exhibit creatures join the frothy frolics.In truth it's all very predictable and plays exactly like the money maker it is, but as with the other two films prior to this one, it has bundles of joy for the kiddies, whilst inserting some dark patches and edgy gags for the benefit of the adults. There's fun cameos, one of which is a joyous belter, and all the returning cast members are joined by an ebullient Dan Stevens as Sir Lancelot.For a series closer it could have disgraced itself, but with some neat injection of ideas and decent story telling, it winds up as above average. The caveat, though, is that at the same time it convinces that the franchise has very much run its course. 6/10
