Night at the Museum 3 2014
Although I was disappointed in the first sequel, I still like the idea behind these movies as museum exhibits come to life. Ben Stiller does a good job with the role of the night watchman who has learned to deal with all kinds of problems in the museum and at home and seems more in control here despite the magic behind the museum being threatened. Throw in some new characters from the British Museum along with favorites from past movies, and Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb is still fun to watch. My problems with the first sequel with them throwing in too many characters and making it not that funny seem to have been addressed as they stick with the main core of characters and add in a goofy caveman. There is a little more of a plot, though the fundamental issue ends up being kind of trivial once they figure out what they need to do. Worth watching, I will give it a B+.
