The magical tablet of Ahkmenrah (Malek) that allows the exhibits at the New York Museum of Natural History to come to life at night is strating to corrode, and its magic is slowly going out of control. With the exhibits acting strangely, Larry Daley (Stiller) heads to London to visit Ahkmenrah’s parents at the British Museum, but things go horribly wrong when the tablet is stolen by Lancelot (Stevens), who believes it is the Holy Grail.

I’ll admit it, I enjoyed this movie. It wasn’t that clever, and most of the action was stretched out so it could last for the full duration of the movie, but it was still a lot of fun. I think of this movies as being primarily aimed at children, and as such they are actually quite informative while still being slapstick and silly. Fans of the originals will no doubt enjoy this, which feels like the close of the trilogy.
