[...] He also directed both Night at the Museum films, the first being great; the second was fun but didn’t live up to the first. Now, before you say I’m not giving the guy a chance, read the synopsis for Real Steel and [...]

For you too? I got a cortisone injection in my left knee. Arthritis in the joint, arthritis in the spine. Doc said that I just got lucky in the gene pool. Oh well. What’s that saying? “I complained about not having any shoes until I met a man with no feet?” Something guilt inducing like that.

Here’s hoping for a better tomorrow for both of us!

Not snappy at all, don’t sweat it. Just pointing it out.

Although today DID suck…

Did I make you snappy? I didn’t mean to. Sorry about that.

@prtvr

I *did* recognize it. I pointed it out specifically as a matter of fact. What I didn’t recognize was the original movie reference.

OMG! We’re the same age and you didn’t recognize a Karloff impersonation?! Now I’m even more depressed that the doc said I have arthritis in my knee. So that’s in addition to the arthritis in my spine. That must be why I recognized Karloff – I’m a lot older than I thought. Bones don’t lie.

Aw C’mon!!I saw it on opening day and I loved it!!!
Sure it was silly,but come on!!
It was supposed to be that way!!

Plus,Ben Stiller;Owen Wilson;Hank Azaria and Bill Hader make a great comic foursome and Amy Adams is beautiful;smart and funny!!!

Dude, what the heck, were you not listening to Owen Wilson’s character at the end of the movie…… nothing offensive for children…… try explaining his line, in THX movie quality with no background music to an 11 year old !!

This movie is garbage and the pre-views for the next 6 months…even more garbage….. at least we’ll see public library’s on the rebound

@Zibe

Sorry, for me it was a take it or leave it movie, but I did indicate quite strongly that it’s a good family-friendly movie to bring the kids to.

@Dorothy

Thanks for pointing that out, it’s an interesting bit of trivia, but I try to review movies for the average person and to me it seemed more than a bit overdone.

It always burns me up when reviewers comment on something they don’t get and it reveals their lack of movie chops. Hank Azaria’s Karloff impersonation was dead-on and for a purpose: Karloff played the original dead-Egyptian-prince-come-back-to-life-in-a-museum in 1932′s “The Mummy.” I have always thought that Azaria resembled Karloff and when he decided to put it all together as a delicious in-joke for fans-in-the-know, I clapped with delight in the theatre. What a treat! Professional reviewers should do their research.

I think think that this movie deserved better than the 2.5, I took my fiance to see it for it to be her first imax movie and she enjoyed it. it is a great family movie for non offensive entertainment and also to perhaps attract interest in aspect of history for children. Not award winning, but i think a 3 out of 5

I will be going to see this movie even though I haven’t seen Star Trek yet. I don’t want to see that first and THEN see Star Trek.

I think that Ben Stiller is very talented and he’s great at changing his personality per movie. I know he does a lot of the same characters over and over but then he’ll do a drama, or a different kid of of comedy. Tropic Thunder. I laughed my ass off at that even though he was playing his usual muscle bound, dopey character. Still loved him.

Smithsonian is just for fun and mostly aimed at kids with a few winks here and there for the adults. So if you take your kids to see it, you don’t have to feel tortured like some of the other kids movies. Shrek did a lot to cross the boundry between adults and children. In fact, I really feel it was more directed at adults. It’s nice to see movies being made that adults can enjoy too. It used to be torture. Pokemon? Worst movie ever but the kids loved it. YUCK!

Ok, point belabored so I’m done.

On a side note: A shout out to Ken J!

C’mon Ken, you don’t want to take your date to “Drag Me to Hell”? That would let you know what kind of girl she is right off the bat!! Seriously though, Night at the Museum would seem more lighthearted than Angels and Demons. Of course, you COULD just take her to see Star Trek.
