Full text transcript of the Night at the Museum 3 movie review

I’ve worked quite a lot of museums and galleries over the course of my life, and so I just want to set the record straight. This film is factually accurate. Things really do come alive at night. The Museum of the Tomb follows the same style of comedy as the previous two films, did we get to see a host of famous historical figures that would have never met in real life interacting with each other and playing off each other? And that’s how they create the comedy, in my opinion. It works really well for the last two films. And to be honest, it’s still great. It still works really well in this one is letting move to the British Museum in London and the usual suspects of Ben Stiller and Robin Williams, Teddy Roosevelt, Owen Wilson and the cowboy Genghis Khan, they all come along and they try and uncover the secret of the tomb because the tablet, which is keeping them all alive and which brings in to life at night, is slowly starting to decay and worst and fall apart. And when it goes, all of the creations that come alive at night will stop coming alive. They’ll die effectively. So one of the great things about the change of location to the British Museum, apart from the fact that the British Museum is awesome, is that they get to introduce a host of new characters and new historical figures that we haven’t seen before that come alive. And they get to add to the comedy themselves. Most notable of which is the Lancelot is played by Dan Stevens, who I don’t know if many Americans will know him as yet.

He’s only just started breaking over. But he was in Downton Abbey, which is a very, very big savings over in the U.K. And it’s great to see him getting some more prominent roles because he left Downton Abbey to kind of hit it big with movie role in Downton Abbey. He was always quite a serious character. And in this you really have to let loose. And he has some really great comedy moments in particular with and it’s not really a spoiler because he doesn’t really do much. But Hugh Jackman, is this as Hugh Jackman and he has some really great interactions with him there. Another one of the new characters is Rebel Wilson, who plays the British Museum security guard Ben Stiller’s opposite across the pond. And I’m not going to lie. I didn’t really enjoy her story. There’s another new character, which is a new Neanderthal who looks a lot like Ben Stiller. So they play up the fact that he thinks he’s a dad and that kind of thing. It’s definitely aimed at a younger audience. The comedy in those moments is really quite childish. And the are between her and the Neanderthal because they obviously fall in love. And I didn’t really enjoy that. I didn’t think it was very funny. I don’t really think it added much humor to the film, which is a shame because the rest of the film really, really does cater exceptionally well for both a young and an adult audience. There are definitely a lot of jokes where you can get out the kids that don’t really find it funny at all.

But there were plenty of times where you think, yep, I graduate, but pretty sure half the audience didn’t know. When we talk about museums, secret museum, it’s kind of inevitable that we’re going to talk about Robin Williams, because as far as I know, it was his last kind of screen role. I’m not entirely sure, though, correct me if I’m wrong, but I think it was probably the last thing he did. And it’s really quite. Upsetting and really does make you feel a lot when you see him on the screen, especially because at the end of this film he’s saying goodbye to Ben Stiller and presumably released, as far as they’re aware, it’s for the last time. So it’s kind of goodbye credit to Robin Williams for being such an excellent actor when he says goodbye. It’s not like he’s just saying it to Ben Stiller. He’s talking to the audience and he’s talking to you. And it really does feel like he’s saying goodbye to you. And there were definitely some people in the cinema welling up a bit when he was saying goodbye to the museum secret, the tomb. Overall, I think despite a couple of annoying characters, the Neanderthal and rebel Wilson Wilson’s character in particular, apart from them, it was really very solid. I have to say, most of the bits with Ben Stiller weren’t the funniest bits. I don’t tend to find him all that funny all the time.

But the rest of the interactions between all the other main characters that are in this film and the ones that we know quite well that we’ve seen in the last year, they don’t introduce, apart from the couple of new ones that they introduce in the British Museum, they get all the old favorites from the Natural History Museum in New York.

And so whether it’s a monkey picking on labor or fighting a skeleton triceratops, there’s always something going on in this film. It’s quite funny and it will make you laugh. And despite the humor throughout the film, there is quite a emotional, quite heartwarming story at the heart of which worked really, really well on two levels, both for the exhibits in the museum that come alive and also for Ben Stiller and his son. It’s really nice to have a film that caters for so many different people who are looking for a comedy film that will suit your children. Or if you’re looking for entertainment, which is a bit more adult, that’s all there. It’s got a really good developed well flowing as well story that is nice to watch and really does, especially this time of year. It really does pick you up and make you feel quite happy at the end of it. It just work everything in this film work. None of the acting is bad, although some of the characters annoyed me, they acted out quite well and they were definitely believable in their roles. So overall, this film was really, really positive. I really enjoyed this film and I think it was genuinely a really, really good way to end the series. I don’t think they’re going to do another one. I don’t think they could top this one if they tried. And I really hope they don’t, because, as I said, it ended on such a nice note and did so well. And as it should have done. So, if you’ve seen my museum, what did you think about it? Do you think it was as good as the previous ones or should it have stayed buried after number two? Let me know in the comments below. And as always, thank you very, very much for watching. Please like and subscribe for more videos for me until next time, though. I will catch you later, guys.
