Haha! Same here Puffy! I'm definately going to see that movie, not only because I love history and museums in general, but because I am very much looking forward to seeing Dick Van Dyke . I just watched Chitty Chitty Bang Bang last night.

Aw darnit, I was all excited that it might be a new film version of The Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. F.E.B.!

Whoops, yes I did Puffy Treat, got a little lysdexic on that one. In other news, I didn't notice this was old and I was in the process of highlighting my own reply so I could quote it and say "WOAH ME TOO!"
*smacks forehead*
Someone didn't have coffee today >_<

It wasn't as great all throughout as I thought it would be.
But the parts that were funny, which were mostly the parts with Owen Wilson and Steven Coogan, and I have to say those parts had me laughing so hard I couldn't breathe.
All in all it was a good movie, and I think it's even a good family movie, and though it wasn't the funniest thing I've ever seen like I thought it might be, it was still well worth the time spent going to see it (and I thought it was more funny than Borat).

My Mom, aunt, Chris and I all saw Night at the Museum tonight. We had a great time. It was funny and action packed, well acted and directed. I recommend it as a good holiday family movie.

I agree with Karl. I had a great time. It's a great family film and would definitely see it again. Owen Wilson and Steven Coogan were obviously the funniest part of the movie, but I have to say that Dick Van Dyke and Mikey Rooney were incredible as well. I laughed out loud (and I have a very loud laugh) when Mickey Rooney tried to tackle Ben Stiller. Ben Stiller was okay. It wasn't his best acting of his career, and the end was a little too feel-good, but it was a great movie.

I saw it and thought it was pretty funny. Mikey Rooney made me laugh with all his random nicknames and insults. I really liked the scenes with the cowboys and Romans.

I saw it tonight with my two younger brothers. I thought it was really good. Like everyone else, I thought the funniest parts were with Octavius and the Owen Wilson character.
*Spoilers*
---------------- When Ben Stiller was comforting Attila there were people behind me that fell off their seats and were rolling around in the aisles laughing so hard. I thought it was pretty funny, especially when he pointed at the other guy and said "You're next". Posts: 2054 | Registered: Nov 2005

Saw this today as part of the Christmas festivities. Great film. After hearing some of the reviews, I mainly went ahead and saw it because I'll see anything with Owen Wilson in it. However after seeing the film, I can only suspect that the naysaying critics are either afraid to say they actually like a "kids" movie or they have completely lost track of their own inner kids.

It's interesting, I think. One of the reviews I read (on CNN) harped a lot on how the reviewer felt that the director of the film mistook "loud" for "funny". But, you know, I took my mother with me to see the movie, and she always complains if she thinks a movie is too loud...and it doesn't take much volume for her to complain. She never complained once about the volume of this movie, however.

Best movie I have seen in years, and I see a lot of movies. It is good to know that movies can still be made that are funny and action packed without sex and gore.

It doesn't seem to be online, but yes, I saw it.
I don't know about it looking better. As long as Reed & Sue are played by completely miscast actors, I'm wary of this franchise.
And the CGI Silver Surfer provoked a huge laugh in the theater, once the audience saw he was just a naked guy on a surf board. Posts: 6689 | Registered: Jan 2005

I'm the comic book has been made fun of for that reason, too. They should totally put some Bermuda shorts on him.
