At least, for now, the museum seems to have closed its doors.

Much like the first two movies, this Night at the Museum is good for some laughs and is fun for the whole family.

It feels old hat and despite the nostalgic rush of seeing the late Mickey Rooney and Robin Williams on the big screen, it's less exciting to see Sir Ben Kingsley as Ahkmenrah's father delivering bad double entendres like, "I am a pharaoh. Kiss my staff."

On every level, [Shawn] Levy and company up the ante, excelling with visual, story, and character expansiveness, endearing each to our hearts even more.

The most poignant moment is the farewell to Roosevelt, played one final time by Robin Williams. Otherwise, Night At The Museum: Secret Of The Tomb is an instance of an idea stretched far beyond its potential.

Unfortunately even these innocent franchises can strain the tenuous chord of likability they have and I'm afraid that is what Night at the Museum 3: Secret of the Tomb has done.

Full Review | Original Score: D+ | Apr 30, 2019

Proving a third visit isn't always a good thing, "Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb" is a film that feels like it is stuck in idle.

Full Review | Original Score: D+ | Jan 24, 2019

Not only are a large proportion of the gags repetitive, but they're also delivered by actors who are simply phoning it in.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 13, 2018

This fairly entertaining kiddie comedy is full of funny little asides and exchanges that keep the pace going.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 11, 2017

Secret Of The Tomb -- not as good as the first movie, but not as bad as the second one either -- attempts to recapture the purposefulness of the original movie, where there was a sense of a quest.

If only we cared more, this might still be OK, but we don't, thanks largely to a noticeable decline in the writing.

Full Review | Oct 30, 2017

Despite its change of venue, "Secret" covers all the ground trod in the original but loses any sense of wonder.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Nov 10, 2015

Secret of the Tomb feels a little lightweight on the story end. Most of the narrative is pretty linear, and it feels even thinner than its 90-minute run time.

Full Review | Nov 5, 2015

The feeling upon the closing credits is one of relief; with the plot nicely tied up, hopefully Shawn Levy gets the hint and finally moves on to try new things with his career.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 9, 2015

As if to make amends for the dubious ethics of the previous sequel (why did Ben Stiller get to decide 'his' museum exhibits were more worthy of life than the ones in the Smithsonian?), this supposed series finale has something of a wised-up, elegiac tone.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4 | Mar 23, 2015

You may not find many original moments in the corny humor of "Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb." But, you will enjoy time spent with old friends in this third and final film in the series.

Full Review | Original Score: B | Mar 19, 2015

If you keep it busy enough, people won't notice how slapdash the plot is.

Full Review | Original Score: .5/4 | Feb 22, 2015

...sporadically entertaining yet ultimately disappointing...

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 24, 2015

It's hard to imagine a more wearied looking ensemble this year than these folks.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 22, 2015

Liked the first two NATM films? Then guess what? Director Shawn Levy and his producers knew better than the mess with a formula that works and so have delivered more of the same...Throwaway fun.
