Night at the Museum was good harmless fun, but it didn't cry out for a sequel. No surprise then that Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian turned out to be an utterly boring retread of the first movie. The third and final part of the series offers one or two enjoyable gags, but it is unable to make a case for its existence, just like the first sequel. Now the Tablet of Ahkmenra, which brings the museum exhibits to life, is starting to lose its powers. Larry the night watchman, his son, and some of the exhibits must take the tablet to the British Museum in London.
