    I love this movie! Entertaining from beginning to end! I love the idea of the museum coming to life at night, its fun and something I always wondered about what would happen when all the lights are out. My favorite characters are the Easter Island head, and the cowboy and roman soldier. Ben Stiller did a good job with his laid back attitude and his character's simplicity. Owen Wilson lite up the screen along with Steve Coogan, and their scenes together are unforgettable. I absolutely love Mickey Rooney, and **** Van ****, and they added to the fun of this film. Anyone would enjoy this movie if they like the fantasy idea of the whole thing, and even if they don't, they should see this movie anyways...def a family friendly film with little adult humor, which shouldn't even be in there, but as long as they don't know what it means...just leave it at that.

    MUST SEE!!!
