Good Finish to a Franchise
19 December 2014
Warning: Spoilers
I saw "Night at the Museum:Secret of the Tomb", starring Ben Stiller-The Watch, Meet the Fockers; Robin Williams-The Crazy Ones_tv, Mrs. Doubtfire; Dan Stevens-A Walk Among the Tombstones, Downtown Abbey_tv and Rebel Wilson-Bridesmaids, Ghost Rider.

This is the third and final movie-at least according to Ben-in the Night at the Museum franchise. I don't know but maybe it has something to do with two of it's actors having died in the past year; Robin Williams and Mickey Rooney. Although, they did leave it where there could be another sequel-I guess they were hedging their bets, in case it does big enough box office business. Oh, and this is Robin's last appearance on screen, in a movie. He does have a movie that has not been released in theaters yet called Merry Friggin' Christmas-I have a copy-and he has one coming out next year where only his voice is used called Absolutely Anything. Anyway, in this installment you get to learn about the history of the tablet that is responsible for bringing everything in the museum to life. For some reason, the tablet is loosing it's power and Ben and Robin have to lead an expedition to England to discover why and how to fix it. That is where they bring in some new characters, including Rebel as the museum security guard of the English museum and Dan as an exhibit there. Besides the returning favorite characters like Owen and the monkey, there are several cameos, including a very funny one from a Marvel super hero. It's rated "PG" for some minor language, rude humor and mild action and has a running time of 1 hour & 37 minutes. I enjoyed it enough that I would buy it on DVD.
