'Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian' web reviews

Ben Stiller and Amy Adams in Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian

Shawn Levy returns with "Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian," which follows Ben Stiller as he embarks on a new mission at the Smithsonian. The cast also includes Owen Wilson, Amy Adams, Robin Williams, Bill Hader, and Ricky Gervais, and here is what the Web's critics have to say about the film:

• Ron Henriques at LatinoReview: "This sequel doesn't really feel like it has any real story, just a lame excuse to put Stiller back in the same situation again and having him run around a national institution like it was a toy store."

CinemaBlend's Katey Rich: "So take your kids, enjoy the zooming action and the slightly nerdy reverence for the past, and try not to think about what this delightful concept might have been in the hands of a tighter, more aware director."

Cinematical's Eric D. Snider: "You know how it goes: the plot is inane, but a lot of the dialogue makes you laugh."

RopeOfSilicon's Brad Brevet: "The film has pretty colors, loud noises and a little monkey. I mean, what more could a kid want from a film?"

• Brian Orndorf at BrianOrndorf.com: "While only showing minimal overall improvement over the preceding museum adventure, 'Battle of the Smithsonian' at least finds a suitable resuscitation of the core concept.
