    • Trivia
      Film debut of Rami Malek.
    • Goofs
      Theodore Roosevelt was known to have a high-pitched, squeaky voice due to being a severe asthmatic. However, Teddy explains that he is a wax figure of Roosevelt designed to appear very heroic, so it makes sense that he'd have a deeper, more resonant voice, not unlike Robin Williams.

      Larry: Yes?

      Easter Island Head: You give me gum-gum!

      Larry: I give you gum-gum?

      Easter Island Head: You new Dum-dum. You give me gum-gum.

      Larry: Gee, okay, you know what? I have no gum-gum. Sorry. And my name isn't Dum-dum. My name's Larry.

      Easter Island Head: No, your name Dum-dum.

      [People screaming]

      Easter Island Head: Oh, you in trouble, Dum-dum. You better run-run. From Attila the Hun-hun.

      [Larry runs as Attila and his gang are chasing him]

      Easter Island Head: See you later, Dum-dum!

    A fun flick!
    I got to see a showing of Night at the Museum last night. I was impressed by the trailers and I got really pumped when I saw people like Stiller, Wilson, Robins, Rudd and more famous comedian actors like Gervais in it.

    The movie starts out slow but picks up once Stiller's character enters the museum. Once he enters the chaos begins.

    The movie has it's up's and downs. Sometimes it feels like it was trying too hard to be funny. Don't get me wrong this movie is filled with laughs such as the Stiller and the monkey slapping each others face which made me laugh my ass off. Night at the Museum felt like a pattern to me, no funny parts to little giggles and then the movie would make you laugh so hard.

    All the famous faces really brought charm to the movie and I don't think it would have work well with anyone else.

    Night at the Museum is a fun movie worth seeing but not a movie you will be looking back on in 10 years time.
