Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb Movie Poster

'Secret of the Tomb' follows the pattern of the previous 'Night at the Museum' movies. A normal sequel to the successful franchise and it is nothing more. As with most movies like this, it lacks freshness and manages to give you only a few laughs, while you watch and remain bored for the rest of the time, as a tribute to the nostalgia and freshness of the first movie of the series. The performances by the principal cast remains the same, their energy the same, but it's the script that makes many scenes look lame. Towards the end, there were many absurdities and illogical elements which questions even the basic fantasy rationale of the movie. I mean, the exhibits are supposed to come alive only when the tablet is there, they how do the exhibits come back alive from London to New York, when the tablet remains in London? There is nothing much more to be said- 'Secret of the Tomb' is yet another addition to the countless sequel movies which you will learn to forget.
